In this paper, the constructs of a grey \(\beta \) minimal and a grey \(\beta \) maximal descriptions are proposed, and four categories of grey \(\beta \) neighborhoods are established. Later, four kinds of \(\beta \) neighborhoods extracted from grey \(\beta \) neighborhoods are introduced. Subsequently, four models of grey \(\beta \) coverings are generated by employing these grey neighborhoods and their interconnections and disparities among the previous versions are examined. In addition, attribute reduction utilizing these mentioned models is explored and the concepts of merge and join reduction of grey \(\beta \) covering are proposed. Therefore, we define the merge- and join-reducible object/element. Finally, the topological properties of these grey \(\beta \) neighborhoods are studied and a new approach, grey topological space, is proposed.
