On Testing Membership to Maximal Consistent Extensions of Information Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 4259))

Abstract

This paper provides a new algorithm for testing membership to maximal consistent extensions of information systems. A maximal consistent extension of a given information system includes all objects corresponding to known attribute values which are consistent with all true and realizable rules extracted from the original information system. An algorithm presented here does not involve computing any rules, and has polynomial time complexity. This algorithm is based on a simpler criterion for membership testing than the algorithm described in [4]. The criterion under consideration is convenient for theoretical analysis of maximal consistent extensions of information systems.
