In this paper, we introduce a notion of modular hemimetrics, an extension of hemimetrics and modular metrics, as the basic structure to define and study fuzzy rough sets by using the usual addition and subtraction of real numbers. We define a pair of fuzzy upper and lower approximation operators and investigate their properties and interrelations. It is shown that upper definable sets and lower definable sets are equivalent. Definable sets form an Alexandrov fuzzy topology such that the upper and lower approximation operators are the closure and the interior operators respectively. At the end, an application of the modular hemimetrics based fuzzy rough set to the acquisition of color gradient images is proposed.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
