Intuitionistic Fuzzy Dominance–based Rough Set Approach: Model and Attribute Reductions

Abstract

The dominance-based rough set approach plays an important role in the development of the rough set theory. It can be used to express the inconsistencies coming from consideration of the preference-ordered domains of the attributes. The purpose of this paper is to further generalize the dominance-based rough set model to fuzzy environment. The constructive approach is used to define the intuitionistic fuzzy dominance-based lower and upper approximations respectively. Basic properties of the intuitionistic fuzzy dominance-based rough approximations are then examined. By introducing the concept of approximate distribution reducts into intuitionistic fuzzy dominancebased rough approximations, four different forms of reducts are defined. The judgment theorems and discernibility matrixes associated with these reducts are also obtained. Such results are all intuitionistic fuzzy generalizations of the classical dominance-based rough set approach. Some numerical examples are employed to substantiate the conceptual arguments.

Finite Difference Migration Imaging of Magnetotellurics

“…In other words, it is a superimposed field of various kinds of source fields with different mediums under the ground. The migration imaging method can relocate the up going field to each source field successively, i.e., the interface of different mediums in a reverse time transmission [17][18][19].…”

Multi‐adjoint intuitionistic fuzzy rough sets

“…After that, Takeuti and Titani [18] defined intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) logic and IF set by consideration the propositions valuated into the range [0, 1]. In recent years, the research on the combination of IFS and the rough set has received widespread attention [19–22]. After that, a new dominance relation was introduced by Zhang and Chen [23], and then they proposed generalised dominance‐based IF rough set model.…”

Quick Attribute Reduction Based on Approximation Dependency Degree

“…Rough set theory is a powerful mathematical tool for dealing with vague, imprecise, incomplete and uncertain data, and the theory has been successfully applied in a number of areas such as machine learning, expert system, pattern recognition, decision analysis, and knowledge discovery in databases [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]22,23]. Attribute reduction is one important part researched in rough set theory.…”
