Abstract

This chapter, from the viewpoint of approximation, introduces an evaluation criterion for relative reducts using roughness of partitions constructed from them. The outline of relative reduct evaluation we propose is: “Good” relative reducts \(=\) relative reducts that provide partitions with approximations as rough and correct as possible. In this sense, we think that evaluation of relative reducts is strictly concerned with evaluation of roughness of approximation.
