Rule Extraction Using Rough Sets When Membership Values Are Intervals

As corporate data is more and more becoming an invaluable asset for decision makers, technologies such as data warehouses and data mining are an essential part of a company's information infrastructure. Methods for mining coiporate data and extracting rules from it are well established for crisp and traditional fuzzy data. This paper aims at extending the traditional fuzzy approach for situations where membership values are intervals.
