Abstract

The paper presents a critical comment on the rough sets approach to feature selection. It is highlighted that the small sample size may lead to spurious results in evaluating the feature subsets. Along with this, some attractive advantages of rough sets criteria are emphasized, and a new criterion is proposed. Two examples have been generated in order to demonstrate the flexibility of the proposed criterion and its advantages over some conventional criteria.
