Abstract

The imbalanced data problem turned out to be one of the most important and challenging problems in artificial intelligence. We discuss an approach of minority class approximation based on rough set methods and three-way decision. This approach seems to be more general than the traditional one. However, it requires developing some new logical tools for reasoning based on rough sets and three-way decision, which is often expressed in natural language.
