    Summary: Recently, multigranularity has been an interesting topic, since different levels of granularity can provide different information from the viewpoint of Granular Computing (GrC). However, established researches have focused less on investigating attribute reduction from multigranularity view. This paper proposes an algorithm based on the multigranularity view. To construct a framework of multigranularity attribute reduction, two main problems can be addressed as follows: (1) The multigranularity structure can be constructed firstly. In this paper, the multigranularity structure will be constructed based on the radii, as different information granularities can be induced by employing different radii. Therefore, the neighborhood-based multigranularity can be constructed. (2) The attribute reduction can be designed and realized from the viewpoint of multigranularity. Different from traditional process which computes reduct through employing a fixed granularity, our algorithm aims to obtain reduct from the viewpoint of multigranularity. To realize the new algorithm, two main processes are executed as follows: (1) Considering that different decision classes may require different key condition attributes, the ensemble selector is applied among different decision classes; (2) to accelerate the process of attribute reduction, only the finest and the coarsest granularities are employed. The experiments over 15 UCI data sets are conducted. Compared with the traditional single-granularity approach, the multigranularity algorithm can not only generate reduct which can provide better classification accuracy, but also reduce the elapsed time. This study suggests new trends for considering both the classification accuracy and the time efficiency with respect to the reduct.
