title: "Possible Definitions of an ’A Priori’ Granule in General Rough Set Theory" by A. Mani creator: A, MANI subject: Logic description: We introduce an abstract framework for general rough set theory from a mereological perspective and consider possible concepts of ’a priori’ granules and granulation in the same. The framework is ideal for relaxing many of the relatively superfluous set-theoretic axioms and for improving the semantics of many relation based, cover-based and dialectical rough set theories. This is a relatively simplified presentation of a section in three different recent research papers by the present author. date: 2009-09-19 type: Conference Paper type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://cogprints.org/6639/1/CLCmerrou99.pdf identifier: A, MANI (2009) "Possible Definitions of an ’A Priori’ Granule in General Rough Set Theory" by A.
