Granular Computing • Solving complex problems with granules. • Zadeh: a basis for computing with words. • Yao YY: a triangle: philosophical level thinking, methodological level problem solving, computational information processing • Bargiella and Pedrycz: human centered information processing: semantical data transformation, non-computational verification of information abstractions A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing
Basic Concepts • Granules • Granulation • Decomposition: coarser => finer • Construction: finer=> coarser • Relationship • Covering, partition A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing
Past, Present, and Future • Standing on shoulders of giants • To know and to be known. • Find representative granular articles • Know what is going on • Understand trends • Databases • ISI Web of Science • IEEE Digital Library A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing

Research Trends and Interaction • Scientific growth is a diffusion process (Crane 1972: Invisible colleges) • In the areas where researchers are aware of each other's existence, the curve of cumulative growth of publications and of authors entering the field follows a logistic pattern. • More new authors • Interacting with other domain • More publications A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing
Granular Computing Trend • More linear like growth • Growth slowly • Less new authors (? did not check) • Interaction • Fuzzy (6/15) • Rough (7/15) • Remaining (3/15) • Hidden Fuzzy (2/3) • Hidden Rough (1/3) • Others ? (interval computing, concept lattice, …) Runge-Kutta A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing
Concluding Remarks • Use standard term in Title, Abstract , and Keywords. (to be known) • Granular Computing, GrC • Searchable from bibliographic databases • GrC researc grows healthily but still have long way to go -> need more interaction • Interact with other domain • GrC shares many thoughts with other domain especially in philosophical level • Come (Invite people from other domains, WI-IAT-BIBM) • Go (Attend, submit GrC papers to other conferences, journals) • New blood A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing
New Book • Novel Development of Granular Computing: Applications for Advanced Human Reasoning and Soft Computation • Edited By JingTao Yao • Will be published by IGI Global • Full Chapter Due on March 15, 2008 • http://www2.cs.uregina.ca/~jtyao/GrC A Ten-year Review of Granular Computing
