Abstract
An attribute reduct, an important concept of rough set theory, is a subset that is sufficient and individually necessary for preserving a particular property of the given information system. In this study, we present a proposed method to calculate the accuracy of data by using the concepts of pre-open and semi-open. We also compared the results of accuracies in the proposed method with the accuracies in Yao and Pawlak methods. Our study revealed that the new model calculating the degree of accuracy was better than the previous models. Additionally, we provided a new insight into the application of the attribute reduction and we used MATLAB programming to obtain the result.
