Abstract
Although the rough set and intuitionistic fuzzy set both capture the same notion, imprecision, studies on the combination of these two theories are rare. Rule extraction is an important task in a type of decision systems where condition attributes are taken as intuitionistic fuzzy values and those of decision attribute are crisp ones. To address this issue, this paper makes a contribution of the following aspects. First, a ranking method is introduced to construct the neighborhood of every object that is determined by intuitionistic fuzzy values of condition attributes. Moreover, an original notion, dominance intuitionistic fuzzy decision tables (DIFDT), is proposed in this paper. Second, a lower/upper approximation set of an object and crisp classes that are confirmed by decision attributes is ascertained by comparing the relation between them. Third, making use of the discernibility matrix and discernibility function, a lower and upper approximation reduction and rule extraction algorithm is devised to acquire knowledge from existing dominance intuitionistic fuzzy decision tables. Finally, the presented model and algorithms are applied to audit risk judgment on information system security auditing risk judgement for CISA, candidate global supplier selection in a manufacturing company, and cars classification.
