Concept Approximations Based on Rough Sets and Similarity Measures

چکیده
The formal concept analysis gives a mathematical definition of a formal concept. However, in many real-life applications, the problem under investigation cannot be described by formal concepts. Such concepts are called the non-definable concepts (Saquer and Deogun, 2000a). The process of finding formal concepts that best describe non-definable concepts is called the concept approximation. In this paper, we present two different approaches to the concept approximation. The first approach is based on rough set theory while the other is based on a similarity measure. We present algorithms for the two approaches.

HESITANT FUZZY INFORMATION MEASURES DERIVED FROM T-NORMS AND S-NORMS
In this contribution, we first introduce the concept of metrical T-norm-based similarity measure for hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs) {by using the concept of T-norm-based distance measure}. Then,the relationship of the proposed {metrical T-norm-based} similarity {measures} with the {other kind of information measure, called the metrical T-norm-based} entropy measure {is} discussed. The main feature ...
متن کاملLogic-Based Roughification
The current chapter is devoted to roughification. In the most general setting, we intend the term roughification to refer to methods/techniques of constructing equivalence/similarity relations adequate for Pawlak-like approximations. Such techniques are fundamental in rough set theory. We propose and investigate novel roughification techniques. We show that using the proposed techniques one can...
متن کاملSOME SIMILARITY MEASURES FOR PICTURE FUZZY SETS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS
In this work, we shall present some novel process to measure the similarity between picture fuzzy sets. Firstly, we adopt the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets and picture fuzzy sets. Secondly, we develop some similarity measures between picture fuzzy sets, such as, cosine similarity measure, weighted cosine similarity measure, set-theoretic similar...
متن کاملFuzzy Similarity Relation as a Basis for Rough Approximations
The indiscernibility relation originally used for the de nition of the rough set concept is extended to a similarity relation subject to a minimal set of conditions. It is shown that in order to meet these conditions, the similarity relation needs only to be re exive. The lower and upper approximations are de ned according to a new more general de nition using the similarity relation. Compariso...
متن کاملReasoning with Rough Sets and Paraconsistent Rough Sets
This thesis presents an approach to knowledge representation combining rough sets and paraconsistent logic programming. The rough sets framework proposes a method to handle a specific type of uncertainty originating from the fact that an agent may perceive different objects of the universe as being similar, although they may have different properties. A rough set is then defined by approximatio...
