Abstract



In the generalization of rough sets, many concepts use a relation weaker than the equivalence relation usually used in classical rough sets, e.g., induced by a conditional probability relation. The conditional probability relation is binary and assumes that the relationship between two data (elements or objects) resembles a relationship between two events in conditional probability. We use the asymmetric property of the conditional probability relation to propose active and passive relations, then discuss a generalization and properties of rough sets based on active and passive relations.
