TLDR
In this article, the authors investigated the criteria for a β-reduct within variable precision rough sets (VPRS) and suggested an additional condition for finding βreducts which assures a more general level knowledge equivalent to that of the full set of attributes.

Semantics-preserving dimensionality reduction: rough and fuzzy-rough-based approaches

TL;DR: This paper reviews those techniques that preserve the underlying semantics of the data, using crisp and fuzzy rough set-based methodologies, and several approaches to feature selection based on rough set theory are experimentally compared.

Attribute reduction in decision-theoretic rough set models

TL;DR: This paper addresses attribute reduction in decision-theoretic rough set models regarding different classification properties, such as decision-monotocity, confidence, coverage, generality and cost, and provides a new insight into the problem of attribute reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Information-preserving hybrid data reduction based on fuzzy-rough techniques

TL;DR: An information measure is proposed to computing discernibility power of a crisp equivalence relation or a fuzzy one, which is the key concept in classical rough set model and fuzzy-rough set model, and a general definition of significance of nominal, numeric and fuzzy attributes is presented.

Approaches to knowledge reduction based on variable precision rough set model

TL;DR: It is proved that for some special thresholds, β lower distribution reduct is equivalent to the maximum distribution reduction reduct, whereas β upper distribution reduCT is equivalents to the possible reduct.

Review: Dimensionality reduction based on rough set theory: A review

TL;DR: The rough sets hybridization with fuzzy sets, neural network and metaheuristic algorithms have been reviewed and the performance analysis of the algorithms has been discussed in connection with the classification.

Variable precision rough set model

TL;DR: A generalized model of rough sets called variable precision model (VP-model), aimed at modelling classification problems involving uncertain or imprecise information, is presented and the main concepts are introduced formally and illustrated with simple examples.

The Discernibility Matrices and Functions in Information Systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce two notions related to any information system, namely the discernibility matrix and discernibility function, and obtain several algorithms for solving problems related among other things to the rough definability, reducts, core and dependencies generation.
