| Description: |
This volume is the result of a project aimed at coalescing the concepts and techniques of granular computing on one side and rough set theory on another. It consists of a collection of theories underlying data mining, granular computing and rough set theory, and stresses their applications. |
| Synopsis: |
During the past few years, data mining has grown rapidly in visibility and importance within information processing and decision analysis. This is par- ticularly true in the realm of e-commerce, where data mining is moving from a "nice-to-have" to a "must-have" status. In a different though related context, a new computing methodology called granular computing is emerging as a powerful tool for the conception, analysis and design of information/intelligent systems. In essence, data mining deals with summarization of information which is resident in large data sets, while granular computing plays a key role in the summarization process by draw- ing together points (objects) which are related through similarity, proximity or functionality. In this perspective, granular computing has a position of centrality in data mining. Another methodology which has high relevance to data mining and plays a central role in this volume is that of rough set theory. Basically, rough set theory may be viewed as a branch of granular computing. However, its applications to data mining have predated that of granular computing. |
