Abstract

Since traditional rough set theory ignores the changes in the relationship between objects in different tolerance classes and across clusters when dealing with incomplete decision systems with missing values, an attribute reduction algorithm based on inter-class tolerance is proposed. Firstly, the domain is divided according to the decision attributes, and the samples within the same decision attribute are defined as a cluster. The concepts of inter-class consistency and discrimination are proposed in the incomplete decision system, and their calculation methods based on inter-class tolerance classes are proposed; secondly, based on the principle of keeping the global inter-class discrimination unchanged, a new standard for evaluating attribute importance is proposed, and the reduction is calculated in combination with a heuristic search strategy; finally, based on nine UCI public data sets, the algorithm is compared with four other attribute reduction algorithms. The results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively remove redundant attributes, and the average classification accuracy is improved by 3.51% compared with the comparison algorithm. Therefore, while ensuring the reduction effect, the algorithm can effectively improve the classification performance of the reduction result.
