A Spatial Heterogeneity-Based Rough Set Extension For Spatial Data
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SCIENCE(2019)
摘要
When classical rough set (CRS) theory is used to analyze spatial data, there is an underlying assumption that objects in the universe are completely randomly distributed over space. However, this assumption conflicts with the actual situation of spatial data. Generally, spatial heterogeneity and spatial autocorrelation are two important characteristics of spatial data. These two characteristics are important information sources for improving the modeling accuracy of spatial data. This paper extends CRS theory by introducing spatial heterogeneity and spatial autocorrelation. This new extension adds spatial adjacency information into the information table. Many fundamental concepts in CRS theory, such as the indiscernibility relation, equivalent classes, and lower and upper approximations, are improved by adding spatial adjacency information into these concepts. Based on these fundamental concepts, a new reduct and an improved rule matching method are proposed. The new reduct incorporates spatial heterogeneity in selecting the feature subset which can preserve the local discriminant power of all features, and the new rule matching method uses spatial autocorrelation to improve the classification ability of rough set-based classifiers. Experimental results show that the proposed extension significantly increased classification or segmentation accuracy, and the spatial reduct required much less time than classical reduct.
