Abstract

This paper studies some matrix properties of rough sets over an arbitrary Boolean algebra, and their comparison with the corresponding ones of Pawlak's rough sets, a tool for data mining. The matrix representation of the lower and upper approximation operators of rough sets is given. Matrix approach provides an explicit formula for computing lower and upper approximations. The lower and upper approximation operators of column vector over an arbitrary Boolean algebra are defined. Finally, a set of axioms is constructed to characterize the upper approximation operator of column vector.
