Information table with with added semantics about attributes
One can added semantics about attributes with respect to their
importance. In this group of papers, we focus on user
ordering (or user preferences) of attributes, which provides a
qualitaive representation of the importance of attributes.
User preferences of attributes are useful in the construction
of reducts.

Information table with with added semantics about attribute values
Classical rough set model only consider the trivial equality
relation "=" on attribute values. In general, one may consider
other semantics on attribute values. Three specific types of
semantics can be considered, namely, any binary relation,
order relation, and neighborhood systems.

In this paper, an arbitrary binary relation is first defined on
the domain of each attribute. It extends the commonly used formulation
based on an equivalence relation defined by equality. The
results are also included in the following book chapter (Section~2.3).

In this paper, a generalized decision logic language is introduced.
The language include the treatment of binary relations on the domain
of an attribute.
