In this paper, the author presents the concept of topological space that must be used to show a relation between rough set and soft set. There are two main results presented; firstly, a construction of a quasi-discrete topology using indiscernibility (equivalence) relation in rough set theory is described. Secondly, the paper describes that a “general” topology is a special case of soft set. Hence, it is concluded that every rough set can be considered as a soft set.

This paper presents an alternative way for constructing a topological space in an information system. Rough set theory for reasoning about data in information systems is used to construct the topology. Using the concept of an indiscernibility relation in rough set theory, it is shown that the topology constructed is a quasi-discrete topology. Furthermore, the dependency of attributes is applied for defining finer topology and further characterizing the roughness property of a set. Meanwhile, the notions of base and sub-base of the topology are applied to find attributes reduction and degree of rough membership, respectively.

The present paper deals with two types of topologies on the set of integers, Z : a quasi-discrete topology and a topology satisfying the T 1 2 -separation axiom. Furthermore, for each n ∈ N , we develop countably many topologies on Z n which are not homeomorphic to the typical n-dimensional Khalimsky topological space. Based on these different types of new topological structures on Z n , many new mathematical approaches can be done in the fields of pure and applied sciences, such as fixed point theory, rough set theory, and so on.

Soft set theory is a newly emerging tool to deal with uncertain problems. Based on soft sets, soft rough approximation operators are introduced, and soft rough sets are defined by using soft rough approximation operators. Soft rough sets, which could provide a better approximation than rough sets do, can be seen as a generalized rough set model. This paper is devoted to investigating soft rough approximation operations and relationships among soft sets, soft rough sets, and topologies. We consider four pairs of soft rough approximation operators and give their properties. Four sorts of soft rough sets are investigated, and their related properties are given. We show that Pawlak's rough set model can be viewed as a special case of soft rough sets, obtain the structure of soft rough sets, give the structure of topologies induced by a soft set, and reveal that every topological space on the initial universe is a soft approximating space.

Granular Computing has emerged as a framework in which information granules are represented and manipulated by intelligent systems. Granular Computing forms a unified conceptual and computing platform. Rough set theory put forth by Pawlak is based upon single equivalence relation taken at a time. Therefore, from a granular computing point of view, it is single granular computing. In 2006, Qiang et al. introduced a multi-granular computing using rough set, which was called optimistic multigranular rough sets after the introduction of another type of multigranular computing using rough sets called pessimistic multigranular rough sets being introduced by them in 2010. Since then, several properties of multigranulations have been studied. In addition, these basic notions on multigranular rough sets have been introduced. Some of these, called the Neighborhood-Based Multigranular Rough Sets (NMGRS) and the Covering-Based Multigranular Rough Sets (CBMGRS), have been added recently. In this chapter, the authors discuss all these topics on multigranular computing and suggest some problems for further study.

The measure of the significance of the attribute and attribute reduction is one of the core content of rough set theory. The classical rough set model based on equivalence relation, suitable for dealing with discrete-valued attributes. Fuzzy-rough set theory, integrating fuzzy set and rough set theory together, extending equivalence relation to fuzzy relation, can deal with fuzzy-valued attributes. By analyzing three problems of FRAR which is a fuzzy decision table attribute reduction algorithm having extensive use, this paper proposes a new reduction algorithm which has better overcome the problem, can handle larger fuzzy decision table. Experimental results show that our reduction algorithm is much quicker than the FRAR algorithm.

Materials used in buildings are collectively referred to building materials. Building materials can be divided into structural materials, decoration materials and some special materials. Rough set theory is built on the basis of the classification mechanism, it will be classified understand in a particular space on the equivalence relation, equivalence relations constitute the division of space. The paper puts forward using rough set to develop the building materials management system. The experiment shows the CPU Time in the attribute numbers, indicating that rough set is superior to FCA in building materials management system.

Rough set theory has been proposed by Pawlak as a useful tool for dealing with the vagueness and granularity in information systems. Classical rough set theory is based on equivalence relation. The covering rough sets are an improvement of Pawlak rough set to deal with complex practical problems which the latter one can not handle. This paper studies covering-based generalized rough sets. In this setting, we investigate common properties of classical lower and upper approximation operations hold for the covering-based lower and upper approximation operations and relationships among some type of covering rough sets.

Abstract Soft set theory and rough set theory are two new tools to discuss uncertainty. Graph theory is a nice way to depict certain information. Particularly soft graphs serve the purpose beautifully. In order to discuss uncertainty in soft graphs, some new types of graphs called soft covering based rough graphs are introduced. Several basic properties of these newly defined graphs are explored. Applications of soft covering based rough graphs in decision making can be very fruitful. In this regard an algorithm has been proposed.

This paper focuses on two very important questions: “what is the future of a hybrid mathematical structure of soft set in science and social science?” and “why should we take care to use hybrid structures of soft set?”. At present, these are the most fundamental questions; which encircle a few prominent areas of mathematics of uncertainties viz. fuzzy set theory, rough set theory, vague set theory, hesitant fuzzy set theory, IVFS theory, IT2FS theory, etc. In this paper, we review connections of soft set theory and hybrid structures in a non-technical manner; so that it may be helpful for a non-mathematician to think carefully to apply hybrid structures in his research areas. Moreover, we must express that we do not have any intention to nullify contributions of fuzzy set theory or rough set theory, etc. to mankind; but our main intention is to show that we must be careful to develop any new hybrid structure with soft set. Here, we have a short discussion on needs of artificial psychology and artificial philosophy to enrich artificial intelligence.

Feature selection or attribute reduction is performed mainly to avoid the ‘curse of dimensionality’ in the large database problem including musical instrument sound classification. This problem deals with the irrelevant and redundant features. Rough set theory and soft set theory proposed by Pawlak and Molodtsov, respectively, are mathematical tools for dealing with the uncertain and imprecision data. Rough and soft set-based dimensionality reduction can be considered as machine learning approaches for feature selection. In this paper, the authors applied these approaches for data cleansing and feature selection technique of Traditional Malay musical instrument sound classification. The data cleansing technique is developed based on matrices computation of multi-soft sets while feature selection using maximum attributes dependency based on rough set theory. The modeling process comprises eight phases: data acquisition, sound editing, data representation, feature extraction, data discretization, data cleansing, feature selection, and feature validation via classification. The results show that the highest classification accuracy of 99.82% was achieved from the best 17 features with 1-NN classifier.
