description For many complex industrial applications, traditional attribute reduction algorithms are often inefficient in obtaining optimal reducts that align with mechanistic analyses and practical production requirements. To solve this problem, we propose a recursive attribute reduction algorithm that calculates the optimal reduct. First, we present the notion of priority sequence to describe the background meaning of attributes and evaluate the optimal reduct. Next, we define a necessary element set to identify the “individually necessary” characteristics of the attributes. On this basis, a recursive algorithm is proposed to calculate the optimal reduct. Its boundary logic is guided by the conflict between the necessary element set and the core attribute set. The experiments demonstrate the proposed algorithm’s uniqueness and its ability to enhance the prediction accuracy of the hot metal silicon content in blast furnaces.
