RST 2016 Workshop

THE SEVENTH ROUGH SETH THEORY WORKSHOP

@ 22nd European Conference on Artificial Intelligence
29 August 2016, The Hague, Holland

http://rst.disco.unimib.it/

The ROUGH SET THEORY (RST) SERIES OF WORKSHOPS is devoted to the state-of-the-art and future prospects of ROUGH SETS considered from a theoretical standpoint. ROUGH SETS were introduced by Zdzisław Pawlak in the early eighties and developed further as a mathematical method of knowledge representation and processing under uncertain data and incomplete information. Nowadays, ROUGH SET THEORY is widely recognised to have a great importance in several fields, which is witnessed by the increasing number of papers concerned with applications and theoretical foundations of ROUGH SETS.

RST’2016 TOPICS of interest include, but are not limited to:

Algebraic structures in rough set theory
Belief functions in connection with rough sets
Complexity of rough set-related problems
Dynamics in rough sets
Granular computing
Many-valued logics
Near sets and nearness approximation spaces
Philosophical aspects of rough set theory
Relationship with other paradigms
Rough logics
Rough mereology
Rough sets in approximate reasoning
Rough sets and ontology approximation
Rough sets in reasoning about changes
Theoretical aspects of rough entropies
Topological and modal approaches to roughness

The present edition of RST WORKSHOP comprises the special track:

ROUGH INTELLIGENCE

This year we are very proud and happy to host a plenary speaker:

DOMINIK ŚLĘZAK, University of Warsaw, Poland

“Rough Intelligence – A Way to Scale Massive Data Computations”

Potential authors may submit their contributions to the main (multi-topic) part of the workshop or to the special track. The authors are asked to prepare 1 or 2 pages long abstracts formatted in Springer LNCS style. It is also expected that one of the authors will present the full paper at the workshop.

The authors are asked to send their submissions to the RST’2016 CHAIRS:

Davide Ciucci, University of Milano-Bicocca, ciucci@disco.unimib.it

Marcin Wolski, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University,  maarten.wolski@gmail.com

SUBMISSION DEADLINE:  JUNE 12                      NOTIFICATION: JUNE 28
