Approximate Symmetries and Infinite Series Symmetry Reduction Solutions to Perturbed Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Equation

Starting from Lie symmetry theory and combining with the approximate symmetry method, and using the package LieSYMGRP proposed by us, we restudy the perturbed Kuramoto-Sivashinsky （KS） equation. The approximate symmetry reduction and the infinite series symmetry reduction solutions of the perturbed KS equation are constructed. Specially, if selecting the tanh-type travelling wave solution as initial approximate, we not only obtain the general formula of the physical approximate similarity solutions, but also obtain several new explicit solutions of the given equation, which are first reported here.

Approximate direct reduction method:infinite series reductions to the perturbed mKdV equation

The approximate direct reduction method is applied to the perturbed mKdV equation with weak fourth order dispersion and weak dissipation. The similarity reduction solutions of different orders conform to formal coherence, accounting for infinite series reduction solutions to the original equation and general formulas of similarity reduction equations. Painleve Ⅱ type equations, hyperbolic secant and Jacobi elliptic function solutions are obtained for zeroorder similarity reduction equations. Higher order similarity reduction equations are linear variable coefficient ordinary differential equations.

Rough Set Based K-Exception Approach to Approximate Rule Reduction

There are rules refering to infrequent instances after the procession of attribute reductionand value reduction with traditional methods.A rough set RS based k-exception approach (RSKEA) torule reduction is presented.Its main idea lies in a two-phase RS based rule reduction.An ordinarydecision table is attained through general method of RS knowledge reduction in the first phase.Then a k-exception candidate set is nominated according to the decision table.RS rule reduction is employed forthe reformed source data set,which remove all the instances included in the k-exception set.We apply theapproach to the automobile database.Results show that it can reduce the number and complexity of ruleswith adjustable conflict rate,which contributes to approximate rule reduction.

Fast assignment reduction in inconsistent incomplete decision systems

This paper focuses on fast algorithm for computing the assignment reduct in inconsistent incomplete decision systems. It is quite inconvenient to judge the assignment reduct directly ac-cording to its definition. We propose the judgment theorem for the assignment reduct in the inconsistent incomplete decision system, which greatly simplifies judging this type reduct. On such basis, we derive a novel attribute significance measure and construct the fast assignment reduction algorithm （F-ARA）, intended for com-puting the assignment reduct in inconsistent incomplete decision systems. Final y, we make a comparison between F-ARA and the discernibility matrix-based method by experiments on 13 Univer-sity of California at Irvine （UCI） datasets, and the experimental results prove that F-ARA is efficient and feasible.

Infinite series symmetry reduction solutions to the modified KdV-Burgers equation

From the point of view of approximate symmetry, the modified Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers （mKdV-Burgers） equation with weak dissipation is investigated. The symmetry of a system of the corresponding partial differential equations which approximate the perturbed mKdV-Burgers equation is constructed and the corresponding general approximate symmetry reduction is derived; thereby infinite series solutions and general formulae can be obtained. The obtained result shows that the zero-order similarity solution to the mKdV-Burgers equation satisfies the Painleve II equation. Also, at the level of travelling wave reduction, the general solution formulae are given for any travelling wave solution of an unperturbed mKdV equation. As an illustrative example, when the zero-order tanh profile solution is chosen as an initial approximate solution, physically approximate similarity solutions are obtained recursively under the appropriate choice of parameters occurring during computation.

Attribute reduction based on fuzziness of approximation set in multi-granulation spaces

Rough set theory is an important tool to solve uncertain problems. Attribute reduction, as one of the core issues of rough set theory, has been proven to be an effective method for knowledge acquisition. Most of heuristic attribute reduction algorithms usually keep the positive region of a target set unchanged and ignore boundary region information. So, how to acquire knowledge from the boundary region of a target set in a multi-granulation space is an interesting issue. In this paper, a new concept, fuzziness of an approximation set of rough set is put forward firstly. Then the change rules of fuzziness in changing granularity spaces are analyzed. Finally, a new algorithm for attribute reduction based on the fuzziness of 0.5-approximation set is presented. Several experimental results show that the attribute reduction by the proposed method has relative better classification characteristics compared with various classification algorithms.
