The Many

In this paper, we present a historical overview of the development of fuzzy mathematics. We mainly concentrate on the evolution of the mathematical representation of fuzziness by means of fuzzy set theory. From the many remaining recently introduced models to represent imprecise and uncertain information, we briefly treat rough set theory.

In this paper, we will visit Rough Set Theory and the Alternative Set Theory (AST) and elaborate a few selected concepts of them using the means of higher-order fuzzy logic (this is usually called Fuzzy Type Theory). We will show that the basic notions of rough set theory have already been included in AST. Using fuzzy type theory, we generalize basic concepts of rough set theory and the topological concepts of AST to become the concepts of the fuzzy set theory. We will give mostly syntactic proofs of the main properties and relations among all the considered concepts, thus showing that they are universally valid.

This chapter provides the information related to the researches enhanced using uncertainty models in life sciences and biomedical Informatics. The main emphasis of this chapter is to present the general ideas for the time line of different uncertainty models to handle uncertain information and their applications in the various fields of biology. There are many mathematical models to handle vague data and uncertain information such as theory of probability, fuzzy set theory, rough set theory, soft set theory. Literatures from the life sciences and bioinformatics have been reviewed and provided the different experimental & theoretical results to understand the applications of uncertain models in the field of bioinformatics.

Short Discussion

This paper focuses on two very important questions: “what is the future of a hybrid mathematical structure of soft set in science and social science?” and “why should we take care to use hybrid structures of soft set?”. At present, these are the most fundamental questions; which encircle a few prominent areas of mathematics of uncertainties viz. fuzzy set theory, rough set theory, vague set theory, hesitant fuzzy set theory, IVFS theory, IT2FS theory, etc. In this paper, we review connections of soft set theory and hybrid structures in a non-technical manner; so that it may be helpful for a non-mathematician to think carefully to apply hybrid structures in his research areas. Moreover, we must express that we do not have any intention to nullify contributions of fuzzy set theory or rough set theory, etc. to mankind; but our main intention is to show that we must be careful to develop any new hybrid structure with soft set. Here, we have a short discussion on needs of artificial psychology and artificial philosophy to enrich artificial intelligence.

Granular computing (GrC) is a label of theories, methodologies, techniques, and tools that make use of granules in the process of problem solving. The philosophy of granular computing has appeared in many fields, and it is likely playing a more and more important role in data mining. Rough set theory and fuzzy set theory, as two very important paradigms of granular computing, are often used to process vague information in data mining. In this chapter, based on the opinion of data is also a format for knowledge representation, a new understanding for data mining, domain-oriented data-driven data mining (3DM), is introduced at first. Its key idea is that data mining is a process of knowledge transformation. Then, the relationship of 3DM and GrC, especially from the view of rough set and fuzzy set, is discussed. Finally, some examples are used to illustrate how to solve real problems in data mining using granular computing. Combining rough set theory and fuzzy set theory, a flexible way for processing incomplete information systems is introduced firstly. Then, the uncertainty measure of covering based rough set is studied by converting a covering into a partition using an equivalence domain relation. Thirdly, a high efficient attribute reduction algorithm is developed by translating set operation of granules into logical operation of bit strings with bitmap technology. Finally, two rule generation algorithms are introduced, and experiment results show that the rule sets generated by these two algorithms are simpler than other similar algorithms.
