The aim of affective engineering is to develop a new product by translating customer affections into design factors. Affective data have so far been analyzed using a multivariate statistical analysis, but the affective data do not always have linear features assumed under normal distribution. Rough sets model is an effective method for knowledge discovery under uncertainty, imprecision and fuzziness. Rough sets model is to deal with any type of data regardless of their linearity characteristics. Therefore, this study utilizes rough sets model to extract affective knowledge from affective data. Four types of scent alternatives and four types of sounds were designed and the experiment was performed to look into affective differences in subject's preference on air conditioner. Finally, the purpose of this study also is to extract knowledge from affective data using rough sets model and to figure out the relationships between rough sets based affective engineering method and statistical one. The result of a case study shows that the proposed approach can effectively extract affective knowledge from affective data and is able to discover the relationships between customer affections and design factors. This study also shows similar results between rough sets model and statistical method, but it can be made more valuable by comparing fuzzy theory, neural network and multivariate statistical methods.

In this paper, for useful administration of the data which have ambiguities meaningfully and hard to treat, a new relation database model using an integrated fuzzy sets and rough sets relational database one. After proposing Fuzzy-rough relational database model on the base of integrated Fuzzy and Rough sets, Application of the examples of arithmetic is analyzed through the Access DBMS and the visual basic by composing and representing database based on fuzzy and rough sets which are characterized as fuzzy sets and rough sets on Pentium computer(166Mhz). This paper was induced to reduce the data incompleteness.

This paper introduces a novel extension of soft rough fuzzy set so-called modified soft rough fuzzy set model in which new lower and upper approximation operators are presented together their related properties that are also investigated. Eventually it is shown that these new models of approximations are finer than previous ones developed by using soft rough fuzzy sets.

Supplier evaluation is of great significance in green supply chain management. Influenced by factors such as economic globalization, sustainable development, a holistic index framework is difficult to establish in green supply chain. Furthermore, the initial index values of candidate suppliers are often characterized by uncertainty and incompleteness and the index weight is variable. To solve these problems, an index framework is established after comprehensive consideration of the major factors. Then an adaptive weight D-S theory model is put forward, and a fuzzy-rough-sets-AHP method is proposed to solve the adaptive weight in the index framework. The case study and the comparison with TOPSIS show that the adaptive weight D-S theory model in this paper is feasible and effective.

This study investigates the application of data mining techniques such as artificial neural networks, rough sets, and induction teaming to the intrusion detection systems. To maximize the effectiveness of data mining for intrusion detection systems, we introduced the asymmetric costs with false positive errors and false negative errors. And we present a method for intrusion detection systems to utilize the asymmetric costs of errors in data mining. The results of our empirical experiment show our intrusion detection model provides high accuracy in intrusion detection. In addition the approach using the asymmetric costs of errors in rough sets and neural networks is effective according to the change of threshold value. We found the threshold has most important role of intrusion detection model for decreasing the costs, which result from false negative errors.

Image halftoning is a technique for varying grayscale images into two-tone binary images. Unfortunately, the static representation of an image-half toning, wherever each pixel intensity is combined by its local neighbors only, causes missing subjective problem. Also, the existing noise causes an instability criterion. In this paper an image half-toning is represented as a dynamical system for recognizing the global representation. Also, noise is reduced based on a probabilistic model. Since image half-toning is considered as 2-D matrix with a full connected pass, this structure is recognized by the dynamical system of Cellular Neural Networks (CNNs) which is defined by its template. Bayesian Rough Sets is used in exploiting the ideal CNNs construction that synthesis its dynamic. Also, Bayesian rough sets contribute to enhance the quality of the halftone image by removing noise and discovering the effective parameters in the CNNs template. The novelty of this method lies in finding a probabilistic based technique to discover the term of CNNs template and define new learning rules for CNNs internal work. A numerical experiment is conducted on image half-toning corrupted by Gaussian noise.

Human being has attempted to solve the problem of imperfect knowledge for a long time. In 1982 Pawlak proposed the rough set theory to manipulate the problem in the area of artificial intelligence. The rough set theory has two interesting properties: one is that a rough set is considered as distinct sets according to distinct knowledge bases, and the other is that distinct rough sets are considered as one same set in a certain knowledge base. This leads to a significant philosophical interpretation: a concept (or an event) may be understood as different ones from different perspectives, while different concepts (or events) may be understood as a same one in a certain perspective. This paper claims that such properties of rough set theory produce a mathematical model to support critical realism and theory ladenness of observation in the philosophy of science.

This paper proposes a model for information filtering (IF) on the Web. The user information need is described into two levels in this model: profiles on category level, and Boolean queries on document level. To efficiently estimate the relevance between the user information need and documents by fuzzy, the user information need is treated as a rough set on the space of documents. The rough set decision theory is used to classify the new documents according to the user information need. In return for this, the new documents are divided into three parts: positive region, boundary region, and negative region. We modified user profile by the user's relevance feedback and discerning words in the documents. In experimental we compared the results of three methods, firstly is to search documents that are not passed the filtering system. Second, search documents that passed the filtering system. Lastly, search documents after modified user profile. The result from using these techniques can obtain higher precision.

Recently, the TS fuzzy models that include the linear equations in the consequent part are widely used for time series forecasting, and the prediction performance of them is somewhat dependent on the characteristics of time series such as stationariness. Thus, a new prediction method is suggested in this paper which is especially effective to nonstationary time series prediction. First, data preprocessing is introduced to extract the patterns and regularities of time series well, and then multiple model TS fuzzy predictors are constructed. Next, an appropriate model is chosen for each input data by an adaptive model selection mechanism based on rough sets, and the prediction is going. Finally, the error compensation procedure is added to improve the performance by decreasing the prediction error. Computer simulations are performed on typical cases to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. It may be very useful for the prediction of time series with uncertainty and/or nonstationariness because it handles and reflects better the characteristics of data.
