Application of Rough Set Theory in Data Mining
Abstract
Rough set theory is a new method that deals with vagueness and uncertainty emphasized in decision making. Data mining is a discipline that has an important contribution to data analysis, discovery of new meaningful knowledge, and autonomous decision making. The rough set theory offers a viable approach for decision rule extraction from data.This paper, introduces the fundamental concepts of rough set theory and other aspects of data mining, a discussion of data representation with rough set theory including pairs of attribute-value blocks, information tables reducts, indiscernibility relation and decision tables. Additionally, the rough set approach to lower and upper approximations and certain possible rule sets concepts are introduced. Finally, some description about applications of the data mining system with rough set theory is included.
