Abstract
A framework of rule generation in Non-deterministicInfor- mationSystems (NISs), which follows rough sets based rule generation in DeterministicInformation Systems (DISs), is presented. We have already coped with certainrules and minimalcertain rules, which are characterized by the concept of consistency, in NISs. We also introduced discernibilityfunctions into NISs. In this paper, possiblerules in NISs are focused on. Because of the information incompleteness, huge number of possiblerules may exist, and we introduce Min-Maxstrategy and Max-Maxstrategy into possible rule generation in NISs. Possible rules based on these strategies are characterized by the criteria minimumsupport, maximumsupport, minimumaccuracy and maximumaccuracy, and Apriori based algorithm is applied.
