A Method of the Rule Acquisition Based on Rough Set

28 Nov 2006-pp 243-243
TL;DR: The basic concept and operation rule of rough set is presented and it is shown that definitive rules about rectifying column are gotten from original data through rough set theory.
Abstract: Rough sets is a mathematical approach to deal with vague, uncertain and imperfect data and it has many advantages over neural network. The basic concept and operation rule of rough set is presented in this paper. As an example to show the advantages, definitive rules about rectifying column are gotten from original data through rough set theory.

TL;DR: This approach seems to be of fundamental importance to artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive sciences, especially in the areas of machine learning, knowledge acquisition, decision analysis, knowledge discovery from databases, expert systems, decision support systems, inductive reasoning, and pattern recognition.
Abstract: Rough set theory, introduced by Zdzislaw Pawlak in the early 1980s [11, 12], is a new mathematical tool to deal with vagueness and uncertainty. This approach seems to be of fundamental importance to artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive sciences, especially in the areas of machine learning, knowledge acquisition, decision analysis, knowledge discovery from databases, expert systems, decision support systems, inductive reasoning, and pattern recognition.

TL;DR: A method of fault diagnosis rule acquisition using Rough Set theory can solve the problem of rule acquisition under condition of imprecise and inconsistent information on account of kind overlapping.
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present a method of fault diagnosis rule acquisition using Rough Set theory. This method can solve the problem of rule acquisition under condition of imprecise and inconsistent information on account of kind overlapping. Knowledge representation in the form of rules closes to man brain reasoning procedure, so diagnosis method based on rules has a wide application in fault diagnosis, but rule acquisition is one of the bottlenecks. Rough Set (RS) theory has been present for developing automation rule generation system, its main idea is to acquire concept's classifying rules through knowledge reduction maintaining classify ability. Therefore, we can use RS theory to fault diagnosis based on rules. This paper presents a flow chart of rule acquisition based on decision matrix and decision function, explains its application method using a fault diagnosis example, and proves its validity.
