AbstractThe initiation and majority on rough sets for algebraic hyperstructures such as hypermodules over a hyperring have been concentrated on a congruence relation. The congruence relation, however, seems to restrict the application of the generalized rough set model for algebraic sets. In this paper, in order to solve this problem, we consider the concept of set-valued homomorphism for hypermodules and we give some examples of set-valued homomorphism. In this respect, we show that every homomorphism of the hypermodules is a set-valued homomorphism. The notions of generalized lower and upper approximation operators, constructed by means of a set-valued mapping, which is a generalization of the notion of lower and upper approximations of a hypermodule, are provided. We also propose the notion of generalized lower and upper approximations with respect to a subhypermodule of a hypermodule discuss some significant properties of them.

Soft rough sets which are a hybrid model combining rough sets with soft sets are defined by using soft rough approximation operators. Soft rough sets can be seen as a generalized rough set model based on soft sets. The present paper aims to combine the covering soft set with rough set, which gives rise to the new kind of soft rough sets. Based on the covering soft sets, we establish soft covering approximation space and soft covering rough approximation operators and present their basic properties. We show that a new type of the soft covering upper approximation operator is smaller than soft upper approximation operator. Also we present an example in medicine which aims to find the patients with high prostate cancer risk. Our data are 78 patients from Selçuk University Meram Medicine Faculty.

Soft set theory is a newly emerging tool to deal with uncertain problems. Based on soft sets, soft rough approximation operators are introduced, and soft rough sets are defined by using soft rough approximation operators. Soft rough sets, which could provide a better approximation than rough sets do, can be seen as a generalized rough set model. This paper is devoted to investigating soft rough approximation operations and relationships among soft sets, soft rough sets, and topologies. We consider four pairs of soft rough approximation operators and give their properties. Four sorts of soft rough sets are investigated, and their related properties are given. We show that Pawlak's rough set model can be viewed as a special case of soft rough sets, obtain the structure of soft rough sets, give the structure of topologies induced by a soft set, and reveal that every topological space on the initial universe is a soft approximating space.

Abstract In this paper, we present a rough set model based on fuzzy ideals of distributive lattices. In fact, we consider a distributive lattice as a universal set and we apply the concept of a fuzzy ideal for definitions of the lower and upper approximations in a distributive lattice. A novel congruence relation induced by a fuzzy ideal of a distributive lattice is introduced. Moreover, we study the special properties of rough sets which can be constructed by means of the congruence relations determined by fuzzy ideals in distributive lattices. Finally, the properties of the generalized rough sets with respect to fuzzy ideals in distributive lattices are also investigated.

The optimistic multigranulationT-fuzzy rough set model was established based on multiple granulations underT-fuzzy approximation space by Xu et al., 2012. From the reference, a natural idea is to consider pessimistic multigranulation model inT-fuzzy approximation space. So, in this paper, the main objective is to make further studies according to Xu et al., 2012. The optimistic multigranulationT-fuzzy rough set model is improved deeply by investigating some further properties. And a complete multigranulationT-fuzzy rough set model is constituted by addressing the pessimistic multigranulationT-fuzzy rough set. The full important properties of multigranulationT-fuzzy lower and upper approximation operators are also presented. Moreover, relationships between multigranulation and classicalT-fuzzy rough sets have been studied carefully. From the relationships, we can find that theT-fuzzy rough set model is a special instance of the two new types of models. In order to interpret and illustrate optimistic and pessimistic multigranulationT-fuzzy rough set models, a case is considered, which is helpful for applying these theories to practical issues.

Many different proposals exist for the definition of lower and upper approximation operators in covering-based rough sets and so many different covering rough set models are built correspondingly. It is meaningful to explore the connection of these covering rough set models for their applications in practice. In this paper, we establish relationships between the most commonly used operators in covering rough set models. We investigate the conditions under which two types of upper approximation operations are identical.

Rough set theory provides an effective tool to deal with uncertain, granular, and incomplete knowledge in information systems. Matroid theory generalizes the linear independence in vector spaces and has many applications in diverse fields, such as combinatorial optimization and rough sets. In this paper, we construct a matroidal structure of the generalized rough set based on a tolerance relation. First, a family of sets are constructed through the lower approximation of a tolerance relation and they are proved to satisfy the circuit axioms of matroids. Thus we establish a matroid with the family of sets as its circuits. Second, we study the properties of the matroid including the base and the rank function. Moreover, we investigate the relationship between the upper approximation operator based on a tolerance relation and the closure operator of the matroid induced by the tolerance relation. Finally, from a tolerance relation, we can get a matroid of the generalized rough set based on the tolerance relation. The matroid can also induce a new relation. We investigate the connection between the original tolerance relation and the induced relation.

The notions of the fuzzy β -minimal and maximal descriptions were established by Yang et al. (Yang and Hu, 2016 and 2019). Recently, Zhang et al. (Zhang et al. 2019) presented the fuzzy covering via ℐ , T -fuzzy rough set model ( FC ℐ T FRS ), and Jiang et al. (Jiang et al., in 2019) introduced the covering through variable precision ℐ , T -fuzzy rough sets ( CVP ℐ T FRS ). To generalize these models in (Jiang et al., 2019 and Zhang et al. 2019), that is, to improve the lower approximation and reduce the upper approximation, the present paper constructs eight novel models of an FC ℐ T FRS based on fuzzy β -minimal (maximal) descriptions. Characterizations of these models are discussed. Further, eight types of CVP ℐ T FRS are introduced, and we investigate the related properties. Relationships among these models are also proposed. Finally, we illustrate the above study with a numerical example that also describes its practical application.

A number of techniques for handling missing data have been presented and implemented. Most of these proposed techniques are unnecessarily complex and, therefore, difficult to use. This chapter investigates a hot-deck data imputation method, based on rough set computations. In this chapter, characteristic relations are introduced that describe incompletely specified decision tables and then these are used for missing data estimation. It has been shown that the basic rough set idea of lower and upper approximations for incompletely specified decision tables may be defined in a variety of different ways. Empirical results obtained using real data are given and they provide a valuable insight into the problem of missing data. Missing data are predicted with an accuracy of up to 99%.

The essence of the rough set theory (RST) is to deal with the inconsistent problems by two definable subsets which are called the lower and upper approximations respectively. Asymmetric Similarity relation based Rough Sets (ASRS) model is one kind of extensions of the classical rough set model in incomplete information systems. In this paper, we propose a new matrix view of ASRS model and give the matrix representation of the lower and upper approximations of a concept under ASRS model. According to this matrix view, a new method is obtained for calculation of the lower and upper approximations under ASRS model. An example is given to illustrate processes of calculating the approximations of a concept based on the matrix point of view.
