Abstract

This paper studies a method for making more efficient classification rules in the ID3 using the rough set theory. Decision tree technique of the ID3 always uses all the attributes in a table of examples for making a new decision tree, but rough set technique can in advance eleminate dispensable attributes. And the former generates only one type of classification rules, but the latter generates all the possibles types of them. The rules generated by the rough set technique are the simplist from as proved by the rough set theory. Therefore, ID3, applying the rough set technique, can reduct the size of the table of examples, generate the simplist form of the classification rules, and also implement an effectie classification system.
