Management of Information Incompleteness in Rough Non-deterministic Information Analysis

Abstract

Rough Non-deterministic Information Analysis (RNIA) is a mathematical framework for handling tables with exact and inexact data. Within this framework, we are developing algorithms aimed at rule generation and direct question-answering. In this paper, we investigate different forms and interpretations of data incompleteness, and show how algorithms implemented in RNIA manipulate them.
