Rough Sets And Knowledge Technology

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed conference proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology, RSKT 2015, held in Tianjin, China, in November 2015, as part of the International Joint Conference on Rough Sets, IJCRS 2015, together with the 15th International Conference on Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining and Granular Computing, RSFDgrC 2015. The 66 papers presented at IJCRS 2015 were carefully reviewed and selected from 97 submissions. The 38 papers included in this volume are organized in the following topical sections: rough sets: the experts speak; reducts and rules; three-way decisions; logic and algebra; clustering; rough sets and graphs; and modeling and learning. In addition the volume contains 6 contributions by new fellows of the International Rough Set Society, an invited talk and a tutorial.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology, RSKT 2012, held in Chengdu, China during August 2012, as one of the co-located conferences of the 2012 Joint Rough Set Symposium, JRS 2012. The 63 revised papers (including 42 regular and 21 short papers) were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on rough sets and its generalizations, rough sets in data and knowledge processing, knowledge technology, advances in granular computing (AGC 2012 workshop), decision-theoretic rough set model and applications (special session), intelligent decision making and granular computing (special session), rough set foundations (special session).

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology, RSKT 2008, held in Chengdu, China, in May 2008. The 91 revised full papers papers presented together with 3 keynote papers and 6 tutorial papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 184 submissions. They all focus on five major research fields: computing theory and paradigms, knowledge technology, intelligent information processing, intelligent control, and applications. The papers are organized in topical sections on rough and soft computing, rough mereology with applications, dominance-based rough set approach, fuzzy-rough hybridization, granular computing, logical and mathematical foundations, formal concept analysis, data mining, machine learning, intelligent information processing, bioinformatics and cognitive informatics, web intelligence, pattern recognition, and real-life applications of knowledge technology.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology, RSKT 2009, held in Gold Coast, Australia, in July 2009. The 85 revised full papers papers presented together with 3 keynote papers and 2 special sessions were carefully reviewed and selected from 229 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on rough sets and computing, rough sets and data reduction, data mining and knowledge discovery, granular computing and cognitive computing, fuzzy sets and computing, knowledge technology and intelligent systems, computational intelligence and applications, image processing and understanding, and formal concept analysis.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology, RSKT 2006, held in Chongqing, China in July 2006. The volume presents 43 revised full papers and 58 revised short papers, together with 15 commemorative and invited papers. Topics include rough computing, evolutionary computing, fuzzy sets, granular computing, neural computing, machine learning and KDD, logics and reasoning, multiagent systems and Web intelligence, and more.
