Abstract

This paper is devoted to the discussion of extended covering rough set models. Based on the notion of neighborhood, five pairs of dual covering approximation operators were defined with their properties being discussed. The relationships among these operators were investigated. The main results are conditions with which these covering approximation operators are identical.
