Data description and data reduction are important issues in sensors data acquisition and rough sets based models can be applied in sensors data acquisition. Data description by rough set theory relies on information granularity, approximation methods and attribute reduction. The distribution of actual data is complex and changeable. The current model lacks the ability to distinguish different data areas leading to decision-making errors. Based on the above, this paper proposes a neighborhood decision rough set based on justifiable granularity. Firstly, the rough affiliation of the data points in different cases is given separately according to the samples in the neighborhood. Secondly, the original labels are rectified using pseudo-labels obtained from the label noise data that has been found. The new judgment criteria are proposed based on justifiable granularity, and the optimal neighborhood radius is optimized by the particle swarm algorithm. Finally, attribute reduction is performed on the basis of risky decision cost. Complex data can be effectively handled by the method, as evidenced by the experimental results.
Neighborhood classifier, a common classification method, is applied in pattern recognition and data mining. The neighborhood classifier mainly relies on the majority voting strategy to judge each category. This strategy only considers the number of samples in the neighborhood but ignores the distribution of samples, which leads to a decreased classification accuracy. To overcome the shortcomings and improve the classification performance, D-S evidence theory is applied to represent the evidence information support of other samples in the neighborhood, and the distance between samples in the neighborhood is taken into account. In this paper, a novel attribute reduction method of neighborhood rough set with a dynamic updating strategy is developed. Different from the traditional heuristic algorithm, the termination threshold of the proposed reduction algorithm is dynamically optimized. Therefore, when the attribute significance is not monotonic, this method can retrieve a better value, in contrast to the traditional method. Moreover, a new classification approach based on D-S evidence theory is proposed. Compared with the classical neighborhood classifier, this method considers the distribution of samples in the neighborhood, and evidence theory is applied to describe the closeness between samples. Finally, datasets from the UCI database are used to indicate that the improved reduction can achieve a lower neighborhood decision error rate than classical heuristic reduction. In addition, the improved classifier acquires higher classification performance in contrast to the traditional neighborhood classifier. This research provides a new direction for improving the accuracy of neighborhood classification.
