Abstract: The focus is on the attribute reductions of inconsistent interval-valued decision systems based on α-tolerance relation. With respect to one kind of α-tolerance relations in inconsistent interval-valued decision systems, notions of α-lower and upper approximate reductions are defined, which keep the lower and upper approximations of all the decision classes unchanged, respectively. Subsequently, the equivalences among the α-upper approximate reduction and α-generalized decision reduction, α-uncertainty maintained reduction, and between α-lower approximate reduction and α-certainty maintained reduction are proved. Meanwhile, the relationships between α-lower approximate reduction and α-upper approximate reduction are discussed in detail, and verified by some examples.

Key words: rough set, inconsistent interval-valued decision system, α-tolerance relation, α-upper approximate reduction, α-lower approximate reduction
