Counter - examples to Dempster ’ s rule of combination

چکیده
This chapter presents several classes of fusion problems which cannot be directly approached by the classical mathematical theory of evidence, also known as Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST), either because Shafer’s model for the frame of discernment is impossible to obtain, or just because Dempster’s rule of combination fails to provide coherent results (or no result at all). We present and discuss the potentiality of the DSmT combined with its classical (or hybrid) rule of combination to attack these infinite classes of fusion problems. 5.

Infinite classes of counter-examples to the Dempster’s rule of combination
This paper presents several classes of fusion problems which cannot be directly attacked by the classical mathematical theory of evidence, also known as the Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) either because the Shafer’s model for the frame of discernment is impossible to obtain or just because the Dempster’s rule of combination fails to provide coherent results (or no result at all). We present and d...
متن کاملA New Similarity Measure for Combining Conflicting Evidences
In Dempster-Shafer (DS) theory, multiple information from the distinct information sources are combined to obtain a single Basic Probability Assignment (BPA) function. The well-known combination rule of Dempster-Shafer (DS) provides the weaker solution to the management of conflicting information at the normalization stage. Even this rule fails and provide the counter intuitive results while co...
متن کاملThe Combination of Di erent Pieces of Evidence Using Incidence Calculus
Combiningmultiple sources of information is a major and di cult task in the management of uncertainty Dempster s combination rule is one of the attractive approaches However many researchers have pointed out that the application domains of the rule are rather limited and it sometimes gives unexpected results In this paper we have further explored the nature of combination and achieved the follo...
متن کاملImproving D-S Evidence Theory for Data Fusion System
Dempster-Shafer evidence theory is an efficient method to process uncertain, incomplete and vague information in data fusion. The combination of conflicting bodies of evidence has been one of the most important issues in Dempster-Shafer evidence theory since the example of counter-intuitive results produced by Dempster’s rule was found. Based on the framework of the Dempster-Shafer evidence the...
متن کاملConflicting evidence combination based on uncertainty measure and distance of evidence
Dempster-Shafer evidence theory is widely used in many fields of information fusion. However, the counter-intuitive results may be obtained when combining with highly conflicting evidence. To deal with such a problem, we put forward a new method based on the distance of evidence and the uncertainty measure. First, based on the distance of evidence, the evidence is divided into two parts, the cr...
