Summary: Variable precision rough set (VPRS) has been widely studied as an essential way of knowledge representation and acquisition in uncertainty theory. This paper investigates the corresponding CVPRS model based on a covering-based rough set model, and systematically studies its algebraic structures and properties. An attribute reduction approach is proposed for a covering-based decision information system using the CVPRS model, and the performances of different boundary operators and related indices in these reduction methods are compared. Necessity rules and possibility rules extraction methods corresponding to decision classes are established, and their validity and security are theoretically verified.

Summary: This paper proposes an interval rough number variable precision rough sets model, which combines interval rough number similarity and the concept of variable precision rough sets. The model introduces an error parameter to improve the tolerance of noise data. A maximal positive domain attribute reduction method based on the proposed model is also constructed, which can process the data type of interval rough number without discretization.

Summary: This paper investigates the theory of rough set in the context of graphs, using the concept of orbits. The authors introduce the indiscernibility relation based on orbits and prove conditions under which the partitions remain the same. They also study the rough membership functions for various types of graphs and introduce essential sets and discernibility matrices induced by orbits.

Summary: This paper proposes an extended model called variable precision multigranulation rough sets (VPMGRSs), which introduces rough membership function and approximation parameters from variable precision rough sets (VPRSs) into the multigranulation environment. The relationships between VPMGRSs and other rough sets methods are investigated, along with several VPMGRSs-based attribute reductions. A heuristic algorithm for alpha-lower distribution reduct is also proposed, and its effectiveness and efficiency are demonstrated through a comparative experiment on real datasets.

Summary: This paper introduces the concept of variable precision into incomplete interval-valued fuzzy information systems and proposes the theory of variable precision rough sets. It explores multiple attribute group decision making problems where attribute weights and expert weights are real numbers and attribute values are interval-valued uncertain linguistic variables, studying knowledge discovery and attribute reduction under a certain degree of misclassification rate. An illustrative example is provided to demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed method in comparison to existing methods.

Summary: Variable precision (fuzzy) rough sets are generalizations of Pawlak rough sets that handle uncertain and imprecise information well. However, many existing variable precision (fuzzy) rough sets lack the comparable property (CP), which is fundamental in Pawlak rough sets. To address this issue, a novel variable precision fuzzy rough set model with CP is proposed, along with an associated three-way decision model.

Summary: Considering the complexities of the welding process and the variation between individuals in welding experience, this research introduces rough set theory for modeling and quality control of arc welding. A variable precision neighborhood rough-fuzzy method is proposed to enhance the efficiency and adaptability of rough set theory in welding process control. By designing different welding experiments, descriptors such as the tail area coefficient and the length-width ratio of the melt pool are used to characterize the welding process. The results show that the proposed model has excellent stability and effectiveness.

Summary: The classical ID3 decision tree algorithm is not suitable for continuous data and has poor classification effect. In order to address these issues, we propose an improved ID3 algorithm called DIGGI based on variable precision neighborhood rough sets. Experimental results demonstrate that DIGGI outperforms three traditional decision tree algorithms, as well as the recently proposed neighborhood decision tree and variable precision neighborhood decision tree.
