Topological approximations of multisets

Rough set theory is a powerful mathematical tool for dealing with inexact, uncertain or vague information. The core concept of rough set theory are information systems and approximation operators of approximation spaces. In this paper, we define and investigate three types of lower and upper multiset approximations of any multiset. These types based on the multiset base of multiset topology induced by a multiset relation. Moreover, the relationships between generalized rough msets and mset topologies are given. In addition, an illustrative example is given to illustrate the relationships between different types of generalized definitions of rough multiset approximations.
