Abstract :
Knowledge in knowledge bases have two categories: complete and incomplete. In this paper, through uniformly expressing these two kinds of knowledge, we first address four operators on a knowledge base, which are adequate for generating new knowledge through using known knowledge. Then, we establish the relationship between knowledge and knowledge granulation. These results will be very helpful for knowledge discovery from knowledge bases and play a significant role for establishing a framework of granular computing in knowledge bases.
