| Sumario: | Multigranulation rough set theory is an important tool to deal with the problem of multicriteria information system. The notion of fuzzy β-neighborhood has been used to construct some covering-based multigranulation fuzzy rough set (CMFRS) models through multigranulation fuzzy measure. But the β-neighborhood has not been used in these models, which can be seen as the bridge of fuzzy covering-based rough sets and covering-based rough sets. In this paper, the new concept of multigranulation fuzzy neighborhood measure and some types of covering-based multigranulation fuzzy rough set (CMFRS) models based on it are proposed. They can be seen as the further combination of fuzzy sets: covering-based rough sets and multigranulation rough sets. Moreover, they are used to solve the problem of multicriteria decision making. Firstly, the definition of multigranulation fuzzy neighborhood measure is given based on the concept of β-neighborhood. Moreover, four types of CMFRS models are constructed, as well as their characteristics and relationships. Then, novel matrix representations of them are investigated, which can satisfy the need of knowledge discovery from large-scale covering information systems. The matrix representations can be more easily implemented than set representations by computers. Finally, we apply them to manage the problem of multicriteria group decision making (MCGDM) and compare them with other methods. |
