Application of Fuzzy Rough Temporal approach in Patient Data Management (FRT-PDM)

Management of fuzzy and vague information has been a research problem for computer scientists, particularly in artificial intelligence, relational and temporal databases. Fuzzy set theory has been widely used to cater this problem. Rough set theory is a newer approach to deal with uncertainty. After many years of rivalry between the two theories, many researchers have started working towards a hybrid theory. In this paper we have discussed the fundamental concepts of fuzzy and rough set theories as well as their application in temporal database model. We have also presented a conceptual model of fuzzy rough temporal data processing along with a case study.
