Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Attribute reduction is an important application of rough set theory. With the dynamic changes of data becoming more and more common, traditional attribute reduction, also called static attribute reduction, is no longer efficient. How to update attribute reducts efficiently gets more and more attention. In the light of the variation about the number of objects, we focus on incremental attribute reduction approaches based on knowledge granularity which can be used to measure the uncertainty in incomplete decision systems. We first introduce incremental mechanisms to calculate knowledge granularity for incomplete decision systems when multiple objects vary dynamically. Then, incremental attribute reduction algorithms for incomplete decision systems when adding multiple objects and when deleting multiple objects are proposed respectively. Finally, comparative experiments on different real-life data sets are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed incremental algorithms for updating attribute reducts with the variation of multiple objects in incomplete decision systems.
