Nearness in Approximation Spaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem considered in this paper is the extension of an approximation space to include a nearness relation. Approximation spaces were introduced by Zdzis law Pawlak during the early 1980s as frameworks for classifying objects by means of attributes (features). Pawlak introduced approximations as a means of approximating one set of objects with another set of objects using an indiscernibility relation that is based on a comparison between the feature values of objects. Until now, the focus has been on the overlap between sets. It is possible to introduce a nearness relation that can be used to determine the “nearness” of sets that are possibly disjoint. Several members of a family of nearness relations are introduced in this article. The contribution of this article is the introduction of a nearness relation that makes it possible to extend Pawlak’s model for an approximation space and to consider the extension of generalized approximations spaces.

Near semigroups on nearness approximation spaces
In this paper, our approach is to study properties of approximations on nearness approximation spaces. Afterwards, our aim is to define near semigroups and near ideals on near approximation spaces. We introduce some properties of these near structures. The nearness of sets and, in particular, the nearness of algebraic structures on nearness approximation spaces fits within the milieu of fuzzy s...
متن کاملNearness of Visual Objects. Application of Rough Sets in Proximity Spaces
The problem considered in this paper is how to describe and compare visual objects. The solution to this problem stems from a consideration of nearness relations in two different forms of Efremovic̆ proximity spaces. In this paper, the visual objects are picture elements in digital images. In particular, this problem is solved in terms of the application of rough sets in proximity spaces. The ba...
متن کاملSimilarity as Nearness: Information Quanta, Approximation Spaces and Nearness Structures
The present paper investigates approximation spaces in the context of topological structures which axiomatise the notion of nearness. Starting with the framework of information quanta which distinguishes two levels of information structures, namely property systems (the first level) and information quantum relational systems (the second level), we shall introduce the notion of Pawlak’s property...

متن کاملNearness of Objects. Approximation Space Model Revisited
This paper is devoted to a nearness relation in an Efremovic̆proximity space. The basic approach is to consider the nearness of the upper and lower approximation of a set introduced by Z. Pawlak during the early 1980s as a foundation for rough sets. Two forms of nearness relations are considered, namely, a spatial EFand a descriptive EFrelation. This leads to a study of the nearness of objects e...
