The notion of a rough set was originally proposed by Pawlak [Z. Pawlak, Rough sets, International Journal of Computer and Information Sciences 11 (5) (1982) 341–356]. Later on, Dubois and Prade [D. Dubois, H. Prade, Rough fuzzy sets and fuzzy rough sets, International Journal of General System 17 (2–3) (1990) 191–209] introduced rough fuzzy sets and fuzzy rough sets as a generalization of rough...

Rough set theory is a relatively new mathematical tool for use in computer applications in circumstances which are characterized by vagueness and uncertainty. In this paper, applications of inclusion degree in rough set theory are discussed, the relationships among inclusion degree, measures on rough set theory and some generalized rough set models are established. These results will be very he...

To tackle the problem with inexact, uncertainty and vague knowl- edge, constructive method is utilized to formulate lower and upper approx- imation sets. Rough set model over dual-universes in fuzzy approximation space is constructed. In this paper, we introduce the concept of rough set over dual-universes in fuzzy approximation space by means of cut set. Then, we discuss properties of rough se...

athemat s.2012.1 Abstract Rough set theory is a powerful mathematical tool for dealing with inexact, uncertain or vague information. The core concept of rough set theory are information systems and approximation operators of approximation spaces. In this paper, we define and investigate three types of lower and upper multiset approximations of any multiset. These types based on the multiset bas...

module over a ring is a general mathematical concept for many examples of mathematicalobjects that can be added to each other and multiplied by scalar numbers.in this paper, we consider a module over a ring as a universe and by using the notion of reference points, we provide local approximations for  subsets of the universe.

decision support systems (dsss) are prevalent information systems for decision making in many competitive business environments. in a dss, decision making process is intimately related to some factors which determine the quality of information systems and their related products. traditional approaches to data analysis usually cannot be implemented in sophisticated companies, where managers need...

Soft set theory is a newly emerging tool to deal with uncertain problems. Based on soft sets, soft rough approximation operators are introduced, and soft rough sets are defined by using soft rough approximation operators. Soft rough sets, which could provide a better approximation than rough sets do, can be seen as a generalized rough set model. This paper is devoted to investigating soft rough...

Multi–granulation is an improvement of the classical rough set theory since it uses a family of binary relations instead of of a single indiscernibility relation for the constructing of approximation. In this paper, the multi–granulation rough set approach is further generalized into fuzzy environment. A family of fuzzy T–similarity relations are used to define the optimistic and pessimistic fu...
