function approximation, rough set theory, feature selectionAbstract
The Rough set theory provides several measures and techniques to data analysis, especially in the case of problems in which the decision feature has a discrete domain. In this paper a measure and methods are proposed which allow extending this theory to the case of problems in which the features have a continuo domain, especially the decision feature. The experimental studies show their affectivity.
