Incomplete data are frequently encountered and bring difficulties when it comes to further processing. The concepts of granular computing (GrC) help deliver a higher level of abstraction to address this problem. Most of the existing data imputation and related modeling methods are of numeric nature and require prior numeric models to be provided. The underlying objective of this study is to introduce a novel and straightforward approach that uses information granules as a vehicle to effectively represent missing data and build granular fuzzy models directly from resulting hybrid granular and numeric data. The evaluation and optimization of this method are guided by the principle of justifiable granularity engaging the coverage and specificity criteria and carried out with the help of particle swarm optimization. We provide a collection of experimental studies using a synthetic dataset and several publicly available real-world datasets to demonstrate the feasibility and analyze the main features of this method.

The aim of this work is to put forward the concept of a novel decision support model for multi-criteria group decision making problems with multi-granular fractional orthotriple fuzzy 2-tuple linguistic (FOF2TL) information. The idea of fractional orthotriple fuzzy 2-tuple linguistic (2TL) model is put forward by integrating the advantages of fractional orthotriple fuzzy set and 2-tuple linguistic method. We define a transformation function to deal the consistency of multi-granular FOF2TL information.

Fuzzy rough entropy established in the notion of fuzzy rough set theory, which has been effectively and efficiently applied for feature selection to handle the uncertainty in real-valued datasets. Further, Fuzzy rough mutual information has been presented by integrating information entropy with fuzzy rough set to measure the importance of features. However, none of the methods till date can handle noise, uncertainty and vagueness simultaneously due to both judgement and identification, which lead to degrade the overall performances of the learning algorithms with the increment in the number of mixed valued conditional features.

Enhancing decision-making under risks is crucial in various fields, and three-way decision (3WD) methods have been extensively utilized and proven to be effective in numerous scenarios. However, traditional methods may not be sufficient when addressing intricate decision-making scenarios characterized by uncertain and ambiguous information. In response to this challenge, the generalized intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) theory extends the conventional fuzzy set theory by introducing two pivotal concepts, i.
