For the preservation of the boundaries, the positive region, and the unpredictable
region, we cannot use discernibility function approach. Because we cannot obtain a
preserving subset A
C by determining which pairs of objects should be discerned.
For example, consider a decision table below.
c 1 c 2 c 3 X 1 X 2 X 3
P 1 000400
P 2 001020
P 3 010001
P 4 110111
There are 3 condition attributes C
={
c 1 ,
c 2 ,
c 3 }
with the value set V
={
0
,
1
}
,
and 3 decision classes X 1 ,
P 4 are sets of objects, where members
of each set have the same condition attribute values. The distribution of the decision
classes on each set P i is shown in the table, for instance the distribution on P 1 forms

The positive region of the table is POS C (

P 1
P 2
P 3 . When we can make P 1
and P 2 be indiscernible and combine P 1
P 2 , the positive region is still preserved.
Because the distribution on P 1
P 2 is
