Resumen

Multi-label learning has become a hot topic in recent years, attracting scholars? attention, including applying the rough set model in multi-label learning. Exciting works that apply the rough set model into multi-label learning usually adapt the rough sets model?s purpose for a single decision table to a multi-decision table with a conservative strategy. However, multi-label learning enforces the rough set model which wants to be applied considering multiple target concepts, and there is label correlation among labels naturally. For that proposal, this paper proposes a rough set model that has multiple target concepts and considers the similarity relationships among target concepts to capture label correlation among labels. The properties of the proposed model are also investigated. The rough set model that has multiple target concepts can handle the data set that has multiple decisions, and it has inherent advantages when applied to multi-label learning. Moreover, we consider how to compute the approximations of GMTRSs under a static and dynamic situation when a target concept is added or removed and derive the corresponding algorithms, respectively. The efficiency and validity of the designed algorithms are verified by experiments.
