Abstract

This paper proposes an approach to representation and analysis of information systems with fuzzy attributes, which combines the variable precision fuzzy rough set (VPFRS) model with the fuzzy flow graph method. An idea of parameterized approximation of crisp and fuzzy sets is presented. A single Ɛ -approximation, which is based on the notion of fuzzy rough inclusion function, can be used to express the crisp approximations in the rough set and variable precision rough set (VPRS) model. A unified form of the Ɛ -approximation is particularly important for defining a consistent VPFRS model. The introduced fuzzy flow graph method enables alternative description of decision tables with fuzzy attributes. The generalized VPFRS model and fuzzy flow graphs, taken together, can be applied to determining a system of fuzzy decision rules from process data.
