The numerical data is qualitatively processed by the classification of membership functions and membership degrees to get the normative decision table. The regular method of relations and the reduction algorithm of attributes are studied. The reduced relations are presented by the multi-representvalue method and its algorithm is offered. The whole knowledge acquisition process has high degree of automation and the extracted knowledge is true and reliable.展开更多

In the empirical study, a series of important rules were given to help to check and forecast the degree of the scientific quality of civil servants by using the reduction algorithm, and the total accuracy of prediction was 93.2%.展开更多

Compared with the traditional rough set attribute reduction, the redundant evaluation items are eliminated by items’ correlation. It avoids a big overhead of calculating the core of rough sets that have many attributes. A novel rule reduction method is proposed based on reliability and coverage, in order to solve the problem of rarely appeared rules and conflict rules in traditional rough set. A sorting algorithm based on coverage is used to optimize the traditional flat evaluation questionnaire model with a hierarchical order. By these optimizations, the number of items that need to evaluate is greatly reduced. The proposed approach is deployed in an elderly service company named Lime family. Real-life result shows that the method can reduce more than 40% items with over 90% accuracy prediction rate. Compared with decision tree and the method based on expert knowledge in reduction rate and accuracy rate, the method has same performance in one index, and 20% improvement on average in the other one.展开更多

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

This paper presents two important properties： relationship between RDP and AR, and relationship between MDP rule set of parent decision table and MDP rule set of child decision table. These properties can help better understanding of the new reduction model and are useful tools by which one can rapidly derive an MDP rule set.展开更多
