Abstract

This paper considers two groups of studies on attribute reduction in the decision-theoretic rough set model. Attribute reduction can be interpreted based on either decision preservation or region preservation. According to the fact that probabilistic regions are non-monotonic with respect to set inclusion of attributes, attribute reduction for region preservation is different from the classical interpretation of reducts.
