Abstract :
As an effective mathematical tool to deal with vagueness and uncertainty, the rough set theory has got much attention in the fields of artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, knowledge process and so on. This paper introduces the Pawlak rough set theory model (1992, 1995) and the generalized rough set theory model, discusses the general methods used in knowledge discovery in database, and measures the plausibility with the generalized model. Finally, it also reviews the research and applications briefly
