Abstract

In this article we define transformation semigroups for rough sets. Basic constructions such as closures, products, coverings and partitions for transformation semigroups are defined. A decomposition theorem for reset transformation semigroups is given. A connection with automata is also presented by defining a semiautomaton for rough sets.
