The following special session is about generalized inclusions.

Special Session on "Generalized Rough Inclusion, Graded Inclusion,
Granularity and Related Topics"
at International Joint Conference on Rough Sets, 2019 (IJCRS’2019)

Principal Organizer & Chair:
A Mani
International Rough Set Society

Organizer & Co-Chair:
Anna Gomolinska
University of Bialystok, Poland

Aim and Scope

Rough inclusion is a key concept of all mereological approaches to
rough sets. They may be realized through rough inclusion functions
(RIFs) and variants thereof as in Polkowski-Skowron style rough
mereology. The specific approach has also found application in diverse
fields such as robotics and linguistics. Other mereological approaches
to granular rough sets that do not make use of RIF-like functions are
also known; the main argument against their use being that they are
intrusive and contaminating in many ways. The concept of graded
inclusion is one generalization of the concept of a RIF that has found
fruitful application in related areas of computational intelligence.
The main aim of this session is to focus on the foundations and
theoretical aspects (especially from a general rough set perspective)
of rough inclusion, graded inclusion, RIF-like functions, and related
functions. However, papers on applications of the concepts mentioned
are also welcome.

RIFs, graded inclusion and generalizations thereof are known by many
other names in formal approaches to vagueness, belief, and
uncertainty. They are also interpreted as functions that model (among
others) conditional subjective probability, relative degree of
misclassification, vague inclusion, majority inclusion function and
inclusion degree. However, bridges between such diverse ontologies
have problems of stability and direction. Apart from the aims
mentioned earlier, a special aim of the session is to focus on
such a state of affairs from a general rough set perspective.

The session will feature both invited and contributed talks.
Experienced and new researchers working on theoretical or insightful
practical applications in related areas are encouraged to submit
papers and participate.

Topics

Topics of interest (but not necessarily limited to) include:
• Generalizations of RIFs,
• Graded inclusion, related structures and applications
• Granularity, RIF-like functions and contamination,
• Connections between generalized RIFs, algebraic models of general
rough sets, mereological and spatial mereological approaches,
• Interpretation of RIF-like functions in allied fields from rough set
perspective,
• Methods for handling intrusion caused by RIFs in rough sets,
• Knowledge representation and concept evolution using RIF-like functions,
• Logics and topological algebraic models of collections of RIF-like functions,
• Philosophical aspects of RIF-like functions
• Comparative data intrusion, adaptivity and granular approaches
• Role of granularity in all the above.

Submission

Accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings in
Springer’s LNCS/LNAI series and indexed in Web of Science. Papers
should be submitted through the Easychair professional platform. Each
submitted paper will be reviewed by three reviewers independently and
the decision on its acceptance will be based on the results on a scale
of degrees of confidence from -3 (strongly rejected) to +3 (strongly
accepted) weighted by referees. In exceptional cases Conference and
Program Chairs have the right to overrule the referees’ decisions.
