Rough set-based logics for multicriteria decision analysis

In this paper, we propose some decision logic languages for rule representation in rough set-based multicriteria analysis. The semantic models of these logics are data tables, each of which is comprised of a finite set of objects described by a finite set of criteria/attributes. The domains of the criteria may have ordinal properties expressing preference scales, while the domains of the attributes may not. The validity, support, and confidence of a rule are defined via its satisfaction in the data table. 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
