✦ Synopsis

We assume a decision situation under risk with incomplete information on preferences modelled as a vector utility function. We consider an additive aggregation of its components and partial information on the scaling constants. We develop the concept of utility efficiency to identify efficient strategies in discrete problems when the information about the scaling constants of the decision maker is in the form of a polyhedral cone. A characterization of the utility efficient set provides a practical way to compute such efficient strategies. We then discuss an interactive method based on the assessment of the scaling constants via an interactive paired comparison with its convergence. The method is complemented by a procedure to reduce the utility efficient set to aid in the process of reaching a final strategy. (~) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

In this paper, we focus our discussion on the parameterization reduction of soft sets and its applications. First we point out that the results of soft set reductions offered in [1] are incorrect. We also observe that the algorithms used to first compute the reduct-soft-set and then to compute the c

## a b s t r a c t This paper is concerned with the reduction of soft sets and fuzzy soft sets. Firstly, the problems of suboptimal choice and added parameter set of soft sets are analyzed. Then, we introduce the definition of normal parameter reduction in soft sets to overcome these problems. In a

Rough set theory and formal concept analysis are two complementary mathematical tools for data analysis. In this paper, we study the reduction of the concept lattices based on rough set theory and propose two kinds of reduction methods for the above concept lattices. First, we present the sufficient
