The LNCS journal Transactions on Rough Sets is devoted to the entire spectrum of rough sets related issues, from logical and mathematical foundations, through all aspects of rough set theory and its applications, such as data mining, knowledge discovery, and intelligent information processing, to relations between rough sets and other approaches to uncertainty, vagueness, and incompleteness, such as fuzzy sets and theory of evidence. This book, which constitutes the eighth volume of the Transactions on Rough Sets series, contains a wide spectrum of contributions to the theory and applications of rough sets. The 17 papers presented explore several research streams and introduce a number of new advances in the foundations and applications of artificial intelligence, engineering, logic, mathematics, and science.
