Sheaf Representation of an Information System

Abstract

Ever since Pawlak introduced the concepts of rough sets, it has attracted many researchers and scientists from various fields of science and technology. Particularly for algebraists as it presented a gold mine to explore the algebraic and topological connections with rough set theory. The present article deals with the connections between rough sets and sheaves. The authors studied sheaf representation of an information system in rough set framework and illustrated how it helps information retrieval.
