Summary
In this paper we discuss tolerance information granule systems. We present examples of information granules and we consider two kinds of basic relations between them, namely inclusion and closeness. The relations between more complex information granules can be defined by extension of the relations defined on parts of information granules. In many application areas related to knowledge discovery in databases there is a need for algorithmic methods making it possible to discover relevant information granules. Examples of SQL implementations of discussed algorithms are included.
