Transactions on Rough Sets XII

Book excerpt: The LNCS journal Transactions on Rough Sets is devoted to the entire spectrum of rough sets related issues, from logical and mathematical foundations, through all aspects of rough set theory and its applications, such as data mining, knowledge discovery, and intelligent information processing, to relations between rough sets and other approaches to uncertainty, vagueness, and incompleteness, such as fuzzy sets and theory of evidence. This volume contains 8 revised selected papers from 11 submissions to the Rough Set and Knowledge Technology Conference (RSKT 2008), together with 5 papers introducing advances in rough set theory and its applications. The topics covered are: perceptually near Pawlak partitions, hypertext classification, topological space versus rough set theory in terms of lattice theory, feature extraction in interval-valued information systems, jumping emerging patterns (JEP), and rough set theory.
