Title
Attribute Core Computation Based on Divide and Conquer Method
Abstract
The idea of divide and conquer method is used in developing algorithms of rough set theory. In this paper, according to the partitions of equivalence relations on attributes of decision tables, two novel algorithms for computing attribute core based on divide and conquer method are proposed. Firstly, a new algorithm for computing the positive region of a decision table is proposed, and its time complexity is O(|U|×|C|), where, |U| is the size of the set of objects and Cis the size of the set of attributes. Secondly, a new algorithm for computing the attribute core of a decision table is developed, and its time complexity is O(|U|×|C|2). Both these two algorithms are linear with |U|. Simulation experiment results show that the algorithm of computing attribute core is not only efficient, but also adapt to huge data sets.
