چکیده

Dempster's rule of evidence combination is computational expensive. This paper presents a parallel approach to evidence combination on a qualitative Markov tree. Binarization algorithm transforms a qualitative Markov tree into a binary tree based on the computational workload in nodes for an exact implementation of evidence combination. A binary tree is then partitioned into clusters with each cluster being assigned to a processor in a parallel environment. The parallel implementation improves the computational efficiency of evidence combination.

Computational-Workload Based Binarization and Partition of Qualitative Markov Trees for Belief Combination

Weiru Liu, Xin Hong, and Kenny Adamson School of Computing and Mathematics, University of Ulster at Jordanstown, UK [email protected] Abstract. Binary join trees have been a popular structure to compute the impact of multiple belief functions initially assigned to nodes of trees or networks. Shenoy has proposed two alternative methods to transform a qualitative Markov tree into a binary tree. ...

Propagation of belief functions: a distributed approach

r. Abstract and Introduction In this paper, we describe a scheme for propagating belief functions in certain kinds of trees using only local computations. This scheme generalizes the computational scheme proposed by Shafer and Logan 1 for diagnostic trees of the type studied by Gordon and Shortliffe2,3 and the slightly more general scheme given by Shafer4 for hierarchical evidence. It also gene...

Parallel Generation of t-ary Trees

A parallel algorithm for generating t-ary tree sequences in reverse B-order is presented. The algorithm generates t-ary trees by 0-1 sequences, and each 0-1 sequences is generated in constant average time O(1). The algorithm is executed on a CREW SM SIMD model, and is adaptive and cost-optimal. Prior to the discussion of the parallel algorithm a new sequential generation with O(1) average time ...

A New Model to Speculate CLV Based on Markov Chain Model

The present study attempts to establish a new framework to speculate customer lifetime value by a stochastic approach. In this research the customer lifetime value is considered as combination of customer’s present and future value. At first step of our desired model, it is essential to define customer groups based on their behavior similarities, and in second step a mechanism to count current ...
