Abstract

The model of covering-based fuzzy rough sets (CFRSs) can be regarded as a hybrid one by combining covering-based rough sets with fuzzy sets. In this paper, based on fuzzy neighborhoods, we propose two types of covering-based variable precision fuzzy rough sets (CVPFRSs) via fuzzy logical operators, i.e., type-I CVPFRSs and type-II CVPFRSs. Then, several basic properties of the two types of CVPFRSs are discussed. In addition, by virtue of the idea of PROMETHEE II methods, we construct a novel method to multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) in the context of medical diagnosis based on the proposed rough approximation operators. Finally, a test example for illustrating the proposed method is given. Meanwhile, a comparative analysis and an experimental evaluation are further discussed to interpret and evaluate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method. The proposed rough set model not only extends the theory of CFRSs, but also provides a new perspective for MADM with fuzzy evaluation information.
