- Abstract:
-
Attribute reduction has an important place in rough set theory. The method of classical generalized decision preservation reduction in incomplete decision systems is to find the reducts of all decision classes. In practical applications, however, the decision makers may focus on one or several decision classes. To fill this gap, the theoretical framework of multi-class-specific generalized decision preservation reduction in incomplete decision systems is proposed. First, the single-class-specific generalized decision preservation reduction in incomplete decision systems is defined. Related theorems are proposed and proven, and the corresponding discernibility matrix and function are constructed. Then, the single-class-specific generalized decision preservation reduction is extended to the multi-class-specific generalized decision preservation reduction in incomplete decision systems. The algorithm of the multi-class-specific generalized decision preservation reduction based on discernibility matrix in incomplete decision systems (MGDRDM) is proposed. Finally, six datasets from UCI were used for experiments. The experimental results show that when the number of selected specific classes is less than all the decision classes, the average length of reducts will be shortened to varying degrees, the space used will be reduced, and the time efficiency will be roughly improved.
