Abstract :
This paper proposes a soft computing approach to manage uncertainty and rule discovery by reasoning over inconsistent, incomplete and fragmentary information using dominance-based rough set theories. A methodological and computational basis is illustrated in a sensor network application scenario of a forest fire detection system.
