Abstract

Relation based rough sets and covering based rough sets are two important extensions of the classical rough sets. This paper investigates relationships between relation based rough sets and the covering based rough sets in a particular framework of approximation operators, presents a new group of approximation operators obtained by combining coverings and neighborhood operators and establishes some relationships between covering based rough sets and relation based rough sets.
