Abstract
In the paper the accuracy of greedy algorithms with weights for construction of partial covers, reducts and decision rules is considered. Bounds on minimal weight of partial covers, reducts and decision rules based on an information on greedy algorithm work are studied. Results of experiments with software implementation of greedy algorithms are described.
