Abstract

In this paper rudiments of the theory will be outlined, and basic concepts of the theory will be illustrated by a simple tutorial example, concerning churn modeling in telecommunications. Real life applications require more advanced extensions of the theory but we will not discuss these extensions here. Rough set theory has an overlap with many other theories dealing with imperfect knowledge, e.g., evidence theory, fuzzy sets, Bayesian inference and others. Nevertheless, the theory can be regarded as an independent, complementary, not competing, discipline in its own rights.
