Variable precision rough set models have been successfully applied to problems whose domains are discrete values. However, there are many situations where discrete data is not available. When it comes to the problems with interval values, no variable precision rough set model has been proposed. In this paper, we propose a variable precision rough set model for interval values in which classification errors are allowed in determining if two intervals are same. To build the model, we define equivalence class, upper approximation, lower approximation, and boundary region. Then, we check if each of 11 characteristics on approximation that works in Pawlak's rough set model is valid for the proposed model or not.

Rule based machine learning techniques are very important in our real world now. We can list out some important application which we can apply rule based machine learning algorithm such as medical data mining, business transaction mining. The different between rules based machine learning and model based machine learning is that model based machine learning out put some models, which often are very difficult to understand by expert or human. But rule based techniques output are the rule sets which is in IF THEN format. For example IF blood pressure=90 and kidney problem=yes then take this drug. By this way, medical doctor can easy modify and update some usable rule. This is the scenario in medical decision support system. Currently, Rough set is one of the most famous theory which can be used for produce the rule. LEM2 is the algorithm use this theory and can produce the small set of rule on the database. In this paper, we present an improvement of LEM2 algorithm which incorporates the variable precision techniques.
