One of the essential problems in data mining is the removal of negligible variables from the data set. This paper proposes a hybrid approach that uses rough set theory based algorithms to reduct the attribute selected from the data set and utilize reducts to raise the classification success of three learning methods; multinomial logistic regression, support vector machines and random forest using 5-fold cross validation. The performance of the hybrid approach is measured by related statistics. The results show that the hybrid approach is effective as its improved accuracy by 6-12% for the three learning methods.
