Abstract
We consider to treat incomplete information in the framework of object--oriented rough set models proposed by Kudo and Murai. The object--oriented rough set model treats structural hierarchies among objects based on is-a relationship and has-a relationship, however, treatment of incomplete information about objects is not illustrated. In this paper, we introduce null value objects to the object--oriented rough set model, which illustrate incompleteness of objects that comes from ``absence of parts"". Moreover, we extend Kryszkiewicz's tolerance relation to apply to the object--oriented rough sets.
