respectively. In Table 7.3 , objects are classified into 5 groups P 1 ,
P 5 by the
condition attributes C . For example, group P 1 is composed of objects having a con-
dition attribute tuple
P 2 ,...,
(
c 1 ,
c 2 ,
c 3 ,
c 4 ) =
(good, good, bad, good)
V C . The number
of objects in each class in each group is shown in column d
(b,m,g)inTable 7.3 .
For example, (0,2,9) of group P 1 means that no object is in class X b , 2 objects are
in class X m and 9 objects are in class X g .
The rough membership of an object u in each group P i to each class X k with
respect to C is the number of objects in P i and X k divided by the number of objects
in P i . For example,
:
C

μ
X b (
P 1 ) =

. Given a condition attribute
subset A
, the objects in P 1 and P 2 are indiscernible to each other. Hence,
the rough membership of an object u in P 1 and P 2 with respect to A becomes

are obtained as follows:
LA C (
UA C (

X b ) =∅ ,
LA C (
UA C (
X m ) ={
P 2 } ,
X m ) ={
P 2 ,
P 4 } ,
LA C (
UA C (
P 4 } ,
where we express approximations by means of groups, namely, all members of a
group P are members of an approximation X if P
X g ) ={
P 1 } ,
X g ) ={
P 1 ,
P 3 ,
X .
InVPRSM, the properties corresponding to ( 7.5 ) and ( 7.6 ) are not always satisfied.
Consequently, L-reducts, U-reducts, and B-reducts become independent concepts in
VPRSM, and there are no strong-weak relations among them.
Additionally, property ( 7.7 ) only partially holds:

UA A (

The union of upper approximations of all decision classes does not always equal
to U but when 1

. From this fact we define an unpredictable region of d with

)
, as follows:
UNP A (
NEG A (
