Granular
Computing (GrC) is a general computation theory for
effectively
using
granules such as classes, clusters, subsets, groups and intervals
to
build
an efficient computational model for complex applications
with
huge
amounts of data, information and knowledge. Though the
label
is
relatively recent, the basic notions and principles of granular
computing,
though
under different names, have appeared in many related
fields,
such
as information hiding in programing, granularity in
artificial intelligence,
divide
and conquer in theoretical computer science, interval computing,
cluster
analysis, fuzzy and rough set theories, neutrosophic
computing,
quotient
space theory, belief
functions, machine learning, databases, and many others.
