Granular Computing: basic issues and possible solutions 论文

摘要

Abstract: Granular computing (GrC) may be regarded as a label of theories, methodologies, techniques, and tools that make use of granules, i.e., groups, classes, or clusters of a universe, in the process of problem solving. The main objective of this paper is to discuss basic issues of GrC, with emphasis on the construction of granules and computation with granules. After a brief review of existing studies, a set-theoretic model of GrC is proposed based on the notion of power algebras. 1
