Abstract

We discuss an uncertainty representation based on rough membership functions in inconsistent decision tables. We propose a reasoning model for dealing with objects having probability distributions instead of concrete values on attributes. We prove discernibility characteristics for minimal boolean implicants in inconsistent decision tables with indeterministically defined objects.
