Generate Fiss-Style Configuration Chart from Sweep Results

Produces a Markdown-formatted configuration chart following Fiss (2011), using four symbols to distinguish core conditions (conditions of the parsimonious term contained in each configuration) from peripheral conditions (present in the intermediate solution only).

generate_fiss_chart(
  result,
  conditions = NULL,
  symbol_set = c("unicode", "ascii", "latex"),
  language = c("en", "ja")
)

Arguments

result

Sweep result augmented by compute_fiss_core.

conditions

Character vector. Condition names (row order). If NULL, extracted from stored settings.

symbol_set

Character. One of "unicode" (default), "ascii", or "latex".

language

Character. "en" (default) or "ja".

Value

Character string: Markdown-formatted Fiss configuration chart.

Details

Call compute_fiss_core first to augment the sweep result.
