A Unified Framework of Granular Computing
نویسنده
چکیده
In this chapter, we propose a unified framework for a holistic understanding of granular computing. It is developed based on three perspectives, namely, the philosophical, the methodological, and the computational perspectives. The three perspectives lead to structured thinking, structured problem solving, and structured information processing. We argue that the subject of the study of granular computing is a web of interacting granules representing a problem to be solved. From the web of granules, one can derive descriptions with multiple hierarchies (i.e., multiview) and multilevel granularity in each hierarchy.

The Art of Granular Computing
The current research in granular computing is dominated by set-theoretic models such as rough sets and fuzzy sets. By recasting the existing studies in a wider context, we propose a unified framework of granular computing. The new framework extends results obtained in the set-theoretic setting and extracts high-level common principles from a wide range of scientific disciplines. The art of gran...
متن کاملGranular Computing
The basic ideas and principles of granular computing (GrC) have been studied explicitly or implicitly in many fields in isolation. With the recent renewed and fast growing interest, it is time to extract the commonality from a diversity of fields and to study systematically and formally the domain independent principles of granular computing in a unified model. A framework of granular computing...
متن کاملINTERVAL ANALYSIS-BASED HYPERBOX GRANULAR COMPUTING CLASSIFICATION ALGORITHMS
Representation of a granule, relation and operation between two granules are mainly researched in granular computing. Hyperbox granular computing classification algorithms (HBGrC) are proposed based on interval analysis. Firstly, a granule is represented as the hyperbox which is the Cartesian product of $N$ intervals for classification in the $N$-dimensional space. Secondly, the relation betwee...
متن کاملMedical privacy protection based on granular computing
Based on granular computing methodology, we propose two criteria to quantitatively measure privacy invasion. The total cost criterion measures the effort needed for a data recipient to find private information. The average benefit criterion measures the benefit a data recipient obtains when he received the released data. These two criteria remedy the inadequacy of the deterministic privacy form...
متن کاملUncertainty analysis of hierarchical granular structures for multi-granulation typical hesitant fuzzy approximation space
Hierarchical structures and uncertainty measures are two main aspects in granular computing, approximate reasoning and cognitive process. Typical hesitant fuzzy sets, as a prime extension of fuzzy sets, are more flexible to reflect the hesitance and ambiguity in knowledge representation and decision making. In this paper, we mainly investigate the hierarchical structures and uncertainty measure...
