Twelfth International Conference on Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining & Granular Computing RSFDGrC 2009

Twelfth International Conference on Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining &
Granular Computing RSFDGrC 2009

Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, India
December 16-18, 2009
Co-organized with the Third International Conference on
Pattern Recognition & Machine Intelligence PReMI 2009

Scopes:
Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining & Granular Computing (RSFDGrC) is the series of international
scientific conferences spanning over last 15 years. RSFDGrC investigates the meeting points among the
four major areas outlined in its title, with respect to foundations and applications. In 2009, RSFDGrC is
co-organized with the Third International Conference on Pattern Recognition & Machine Intelligence
(PReMI) that provides additional means for multi-faceted interaction of both scientists and practitioners.
RSFDGrC 2009 is the core component of a broader Rough Set Year in India (RSIndia09) initiative that
encourages organizing rough set-related academic workshops in various regions of India. On the other
hand, RSFDGrC 2009 remains the fully international event aimed at building bridges between different
groups and countries, including India, China, Japan, Poland, Canada, USA, Egypt and many others.
