The LNCS journal Transactions on Rough Sets is devoted to the entire spectrum of rough sets
related issues from logical and mathematical foundations through all aspects of rough set
theory and its applications such as data mining knowledge discovery and intelligent
information processing to relations between rough sets and other approaches to uncertainty
vagueness and incompleteness such as fuzzy sets and theory of evidence. Volume XVIII includes
extensions of papers from the Joint Rough Set Symposium (JRS 2012) which was held in Chengdu
China in August 2012. The seven papers that constitute this volume deal with topics such as:
rough fuzzy sets intuitionistic fuzzy sets multi-granulation rough sets decision-theoretic
rough sets three-way decisions and their applications in attribute reduction feature
selection overlapping clustering data mining cost-sensitive learning face recognition and
spam filtering.
