Abstract
In this semi-plenary lecture, we would like to discuss rough inclusions defined in Rough Mereology, a joint idea with Andrzej Skowron, as a basis for models for rough set theory. We demonstrate that mereological theory of rough sets extends and generalizes rough set theory written down in naive set theory framework.
