RoughSets (version 1.0-0)
Data Analysis Using Rough Set and Fuzzy Rough Set Theories.
Description
This package provides comprehensive implementations of the rough
set theory (RST) and the fuzzy rough set theory (FRST), and integrates
these two theories into a single package. It provides implementations, not
only for the basic concepts of RST and FRST, but also most common methods
based on them for handling some tasks such as discretization, feature
selection, instance selection, rule induction, and prediction. RST was
introduced by Zdzislaw Pawlak in 1982 as a sophisticated mathematical tool
based on indiscernibility relations to model and process imprecise or
incomplete information. It works on symbolic-valued datasets for tackling
the data analysis problems. By using the indiscernibility relation for
objects/instances, RST does not require additional parameters to analyze
the data. FRST is an extension of RST. The FRST combines concepts of
vagueness and indiscernibility that are expressed with fuzzy sets (as
proposed by Zadeh, in 1965) and RST.
