Abstract:
In 2007, Zhi-Wei Sun defined a covering number to be a positive integer [Formula: see text] such that there exists a covering system of the integers where the moduli are distinct divisors of [Formula: see text] greater than 1. A covering number [Formula: see text] is called primitive if no proper divisor of [Formula: see text] is a covering number. Sun constructed an infinite set [Formula: see text] of primitive covering numbers, and he conjectured that every primitive covering number must satisfy a certain condition. In this paper, for a given [Formula: see text], we derive a formula that gives the exact number of coverings that have [Formula: see text] as the least common multiple of the set [Formula: see text] of moduli, under certain restrictions on [Formula: see text]. Additionally, we disprove Sun’s conjecture by constructing an infinite set of primitive covering numbers that do not satisfy his primitive covering number condition.

Abstract:
Relative reduction of multiple neighborhood-covering with multigranulation rough set has been one of the hot research topics in knowledge reduction theory. In this paper, we explore the relative reduction of covering information system by combining the neighborhood-covering pessimistic multigranulation rough set with evidence theory. First, the lower and upper approximations of multigranulation rough set in neighborhood-covering information systems are introduced based on the concept of neighborhood of objects. Second, the belief and plausibility functions from evidence theory are employed to characterize the approximations of neighborhood-covering multigranulation rough set. Then the relative reduction of neighborhood-covering information system is investigated by using the belief and plausibility functions. Finally, an algorithm for computing a relative reduction of neighborhood-covering pessimistic multigranulation rough set is proposed according to the significance of coverings defined by the belief function, and its validity is examined by a practical example.

Let [Formula: see text] be a simple and connected graph. A dominating set [Formula: see text] is said to be a vertex covering transversal dominating set if it intersects every minimum vertex covering set of [Formula: see text]. The vertex covering transversal domination number [Formula: see text] is the minimum cardinality among all vertex covering transversal dominating sets of [Formula: see text]. A vertex covering transversal dominating set of minimum cardinality [Formula: see text] is called a minimum vertex covering transversal dominating set or simply a [Formula: see text]-set. In this paper, we prove some general theorems on the vertex covering transversal domination number of a simple connected graph. We also provide some results about [Formula: see text]-sets and try to classify those sets based on their intersection with the minimum vertex covering sets.

Abstract:
In this paper, we present a clustering heuristic for solving demand covering models where the objective is to determine locations for servers that optimally cover a given set of demand points. This heuristic is based on the concept of biclusters and processes the set of demand points as well as the set of potential servers and determines biclusters that result in smaller problems. Given a coverage matrix, a bicluster is defined as a sub-matrix spanned by both a subset of rows and a subset of columns, such that rows are the most similar to each other when compared over columns. The algorithm starts by using any biclustering algorithm in order to identify appropriate biclusters of the coverage matrix and then combines selected biclusters to define an aggregate solution to the original problem. The algorithm can be easily adapted to address a whole family of covering problems including set covering, maximal covering and backup covering problems. The proposed algorithm is tested in a series of widely known test datasets for various such problems. The main objective of this paper is to introduce the concept of biclustering as an efficient and effective approach to tackle covering problems and to stimulate further research in this area.

Covering rough set theory is an important generalization of traditional rough set theory. So far, the studies on covering generalized rough sets mainly focus on constructing different types of approximation operations. However, little attention has been paid to uncertainty measurement in covering cases. In this paper, a new kind of partial order is proposed for coverings which is used to evaluate the uncertainty measures. Consequently, we study uncertain measures like roughness measure, accuracy measure, entropy and granularity for covering rough set models which are defined by neighborhoods and friends. Some theoretical results are obtained and investigated.

Rough set theory is an important technique in knowledge discovery in databases.

This paper makes a comparison between covering rough sets and rough sets based on binary relations. This paper also focuses on the authors’ study of the condition under which the covering rough set can be generated by a binary relation and the binary relation based rough set can be generated by a covering.

Abstract:
Classical rough set theory is a technique of granular computing for handling the uncertainty, vagueness, and granularity in information systems. Covering-based rough sets are proposed to generalize this theory for dealing with covering data. By introducing a concept of misclassification rate functions, an extended variable precision covering-based rough set model is proposed in this paper. In addition, we define thef-lower andf-upper approximations in terms of neighborhoods in the extended model and study their properties. Particularly, two coverings with the same reductions are proved to generate the samef-lower andf-upper approximations. Finally, we discuss the relationships between the new model and some other variable precision rough set models.

Abstract:
The reductions of covering information systems in terms of covering approximation operators are one of the most important applications of covering rough set theory. Based on the connections between the theory of topology and the covering rough set theory, two kinds of topological reductions of covering information systems are discussed in this paper, which are characterized by the belief and plausibility functions from the evidence theory. The topological spaces by two pairs of covering approximation operators in covering information systems are pseudo-discrete, which deduce partitions. Then, using plausibility function values of the sets in the partitions, the definitions of significance and relative significance of coverings are presented. Hence, topological reduction algorithms based on the evidence theory are proposed in covering information systems, and an example is adopted to illustrate the validity of the algorithms.

Many different proposals exist for the definition of lower and upper approximation operators in covering-based rough sets and so many different covering rough set models are built correspondingly. It is meaningful to explore the connection of these covering rough set models for their applications in practice.

We investigate the conditions under which two types of upper approximation operations are identical.
