Abstract

Incomplete decision systems containing missing attribute values occur frequently in real world applications. This paper proposes IQRAIG_incomplete algorithm for reduct computation in Incomplete Decision Systems using a novel granular framework. The proposed granular framework enables computation of similarity classes for a set of objects simultaneously which helps in increased effienciency of computing positive region. The merits of the proposed algorithm over IFSPA-IPR algorithm has been demonstrated empirically.
