Резюме	Knowledge Space Theory (KST) is a combinatorial, set-theoretic framework for modeling and assessing human knowledge, introduced by Jean-Paul Doignon and Jean-Claude Falmagne in 1985. It represents a learner's competence as a subset of a problem domain, organizes all feasible competence subsets into a lattice called a knowledge space, and uses probabilistic inference to locate a learner within that space. The approach underlies adaptive testing and intelligent tutoring systems, offering a mathematically rigorous alternative to classical test theory.	Formal concept analysis derives a hierarchy of concepts from a simple table of which objects have which attributes. Founded by Rudolf Wille in 1982 on lattice theory, it pairs each set of objects with the attributes they all share to form 'formal concepts', then organizes these into a concept lattice — a mathematically grounded, interpretable hierarchy used for knowledge discovery, ontology building, and explainable analysis of categorical data.
