Rough Approximation Based on Weak q-RIFs

  • Chapter
Transactions on Rough Sets X

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((TRS,volume 5656))

Abstract

In this article we consider approximation spaces where instead of rough inclusion functions, the so-called weak quasi-rough inclusion functions (weak q-RIFs) are used to measure the degree of inclusion of a set in a set. Theoretical properties of rough approximation operators based on such inclusion measures are discussed.
