Thriving Rough Sets

Abstract

The chapter briefly discusses selected applications of the rough set theory. The main aim of the chapter is to describe a model of conflict proposed by Professor Pawlak as well as its extension. In the chapter the Pawlak’s model was applied to analyze the conflicts that arise between classifiers when making decisions. The example that is included in the chapter allows for comparison of the results generated by the Pawlak’s model with the results generated by other approaches. Some properties in generated coalitions have been noticed.
