Welcome!

In 2007, JRS07 is the leading international symposium on the foundations and applications of rough sets. The symposium encapsulates two conferences. Firstly, Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining and Granular Computing - a continuation of international conferences spanning the past 15 years. Secondly, Rough Sets and Knowledge Technology - a new initiative launched this year. Both of the conferences investigate rough sets as an emerging methodology which, established more than 20 years ago, has recently received increasing attention as relevant in varied hybrid approaches.

JRS07 encompasses rough and fuzzy sets, knowledge technology and discovery, soft and granular computing, data processing and mining, while maintaining equal emphasis on foundations and applications. Sessions will include, but are not limited to, approximate reasoning, computational biology, data warehousing, decision support systems, distributed computing, embedded systems, environmental engineering, evolutionary strategies, formal concept analysis, human-computer interaction, layered learning, machine intelligence, medical informatics, multi-agent systems, multimedia mining, pattern recognition, security techniques, semantic web and ontology.

JRS07 places emphasis on fostering interaction between academic and industry representatives by organizing demonstrations of rough set-based real-world applications, facilitating discussions on hybrid methodologies, as well as plenary lectures and tutorials.

Accepted papers will be published by Springer in LNCS/LNAI. Extensions of selected papers will be considered for LNCS Transactions on Rough Sets and other international journals.
