Abstract
We introduce the Birkhoff completion as the smallest dis-
tributive lattice in which a given finite lattice can be embedded as semi-
lattice. We discuss its relationship to implicational theories, in particular
to R. Wille’s simply-implicational theories. By an example, we show how
the Birkhoff completion can be used as a tool for ordinal data science.
