“…At the same time, many formulas or methods were proposed to calculate the different types of attribute significances. Some classical formulas are designed based on the positive region [28][29][30], entropy [3,[16][17][18], the discernibility ability of attributes [13,14,24,31,32], the relationship between attributes [33], etc. In addition, many researchers proposed the mixed formulas by combining rough set theory and other theories, such as fuzzy set [12], ant colony optimization [23], granular computing [2,6,16,34], etc.…”
