....used to reason not just about regions with indeterminate boundaries but also can be specialised to cover a number of other kinds of regions including convex hulls of regions, minimum bounding rectangles, bu er zones and rasters 16 . Another notion of inde niteness relates to locations. Bittner [15] deals with the notion of exact, part and rough location for spatial objects. The exact location is the region of space taken up by the object. The notion of part location (as introduced by [19] relates parts of a spatial object to parts of spatial regions. The rough location of a spatial object ....

....regions. The rough location of a spatial object is characterized by the part location of spatial objects with respect to a set of regions of space that form regional partitions. Consequently, the notion of rough location links parts of spatial objects to parts of partition regions. Bittner [15] argues that the observations and measurements of location in physical reality yield knowledge about rough location: a vaguely de ned object o is located within a regional 16 This last specialization generalises the application of the n intersection model to rasters previously undertaken [66] ....

....of Mount Everest. In some cases fiat boundaries have become associated with suitable bona fide props, for example with systems of pegs or fences in reality. Surveying is about establishing relations between fiat boundaries and real, physical landmarks of these sorts. Moffitt and Bouchard 1987) (Bittner 1999). The problematic nature of the cases which concern us here, however, lies in the fact that the fiat boundaries with which we have to deal are not in any determinate place, but exist rather as multiple systems of boundaries projected onto reality through cognitive acts of a range of different ....

Human knowledge is gained by observations and reasoning about observations. (Bittner 1999) argued 1 that by means of observation and measurement (a precise form of observation) humans cannot know the exact spatial and, hence, exact temporal location. Observations and measurement yield knowledge about approximate spatio temporal location, i.e. knowledge about relations between ....

Rough Sets in Spatio-Temporal Data Mining - Bittner   Self-citation (Bittner)   (Correct)

....is based on relations between objects and on relations between the spatio temporal regions they occupy. Unfortunately, it is often impossible to identify the region of space and time those objects exactly occupy, i.e. the exact location of spatio temporal objects is often indeterminate [BF95] Bit99] argued that often approximate location of spatial objects is known. The notion of approximate location is based on the notion of rough sets, i.e. the approximation of (exact) location with respect to a regional partition of space and time. In this paper I discuss how rough sets can be used in ....
