Authors: Beg Ismat, Rashid Tabasam
Keywords: fuzzy set; rough set; soft set; soft fuzzy rough set; approximations
Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce a modified soft fuzzy rough set model. The lower and upper approximation operators are presented and their related properties are investigated. It is shown that these new models of approximations are finer than already known in the literature.
