A Novel Robust Fuzzy Rough Set Model for Feature Selection by Yuwen Li, Shoushui Wei, Xing Liu, Zhimin Zhang

“…The existing fuzzy rough set (FRS) models all believe that the decision attribute divides the sample set into several “clear” decision classes, and this data processing method makes the model sensitive to noise information when conducting feature selection. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a robust fuzzy rough set model (RS-FRS) based on representative samples. …”
