In such incomplete information system, the universe of discourse is classified by the maximal tolerance classes, and fuzzy approximations are defined based on them. Three types of relative reducts of maximal tolerance classes are then proposed, and three types of fuzzy decision rules based on the proposed attribute description are defined. The judgment theorems and approximation discernibility functions with respect to them are presented to compute the relative reduct by using Boolean reasoning techniques, from which we can derive optimal fuzzy decision rules from the systems. At last, three types of relative reducts of the system and their computing methods are given.展开更多

Rough set theory（RST） has been used as such a tool with much success. RST enables the discovery of data dependencies and the reduction of the number of attributes contained in a dataset using the data alone,requiring no additional information. This paper describes the fundamental ideas behind RST-based approaches,reviews related FS methods built on these ideas,and analyses more frequently used RST-based traditional FS algorithms such as Quickreduct algorithm,entropy based reduct algorithm,and relative reduct algorithm. It is found that some of the drawbacks in the existing algorithms and our proposed improved algorithms can overcome these drawbacks. The experimental analyses have been carried out in order to achieve the efficiency of the proposed algorithms.展开更多
