Weighted hyperrough set and sequential hyperrough set
Abstract
Rough set theory provides a mathematical framework for approximating subsets using lower and upper bounds
defined by equivalence relations, effectively capturing uncertainty in classification and data analysis. Building upon
these foundational concepts, further generalizations such as Hyperrough Sets and Superhyperrough Sets have been
developed. The Weighted Rough Set is an extension of rough set theory that incorporates importance weights
for attributes, enabling more precise classification and approximation. In this paper, we investigate the Weighted
Hyperrough Set, Weighted Superhyperrough Set, Sequential Hyperrough Set, and Sequential n-Superhyperrough
Set, each of which extends the fundamental ideas of Weighted Rough Sets and Sequential Rough Sets to more
complex and high-dimensional decision environments.
