Region Vector Based Attribute Reducts in Decision-Theoretic Rough Sets

摘要

When removing some attributes, the partition induced by a smaller set of attributes will be coarser and the decision regions may be changed. In this paper, we analyze the decision region changes when removing attributes and propose a new type of attribute reducts from the point of view of vector based three-way approximations of a partition. We also present a reduct construction method by using a discernibility matrix.
