TY - INPR ID - cogprints6639 UR - http://cogprints.org/6639/ A1 - A, MANI Y1 - 2009/09/19/ N2 - We introduce an abstract framework for general rough set theory from a mereological perspective and consider possible concepts of ?a priori? granules and granulation in the same. The framework is ideal for relaxing many of the relatively super?uous set-theoretic axioms and for improving the semantics of many relation based, cover-based and dialectical rough set theories. This is a relatively simplified presentation of a section in three different recent research papers by the present author. TI - "Possible De?nitions of an ?A Priori? Granule in General Rough Set Theory" by A. Mani SP - 1 AV - public EP - 18 ER -
