Method evidence record

Three-Way Decisions

Three-Way Decisions (3WD) is a decision-theoretic framework, introduced by Yiyu Yao in 2010, that partitions the universe of objects into three regions—positive (accept), negative (reject), and boundary (abstain)—using probabilistic rough set theory. Unlike binary classifiers that force every object into one of two classes, 3WD explicitly acknowledges uncertainty by allowing a third option: deferring judgment when available evidence is insufficient for a confident decision.
