Infant mortality (IM), an index that corresponds to the number of deaths among children up to one year, is an important social indicator of a region. It generally reflects the conditions of socioeconomic development – in addition, the access and quality of resources available for maternal and child health care. Monitoring its magnitude, thus, can help in the definition of public policies for its confrontation. The main causes of IM can be also associated with biological, behavioral, and public health issues. In this work, implication and association rules based on Formal Concept Analysis are used to recognize patterns in births occurring in the state of Amapá (located in the Brazilian Amazon), where the index of infant mortality is more severe.
