Natural Disasters like cyclones and Earthquakes have a huge impact on the lives of people, results in damage to infrastructure, lead injuries deaths. IoT Based detection systems are utilized for detecting disasters performing subsequent rescue operations. The challenge with these is that collecting data from sensors might be failed due communication breakages or network congestions. To address ...

Dr. Mane an is vice p resilien t, m issio n services and ethics, Trinity Health, Novi, MI. M ission discernment (also known as ethical discernment or ethical decision making) is emerging as one of the more encouraging recent developments in U.S. health care. Health care organizations have not only chosen a variety of names for the process, they have also introduced it into their structures ,\n>...

An approach is presented to multi-expert’s opinions combination based on the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. In the method, we use multi-expert’s knowledge as evidence, the possible value of weight as frame of discernment, expert’s evaluation to a weight on frame of discernment as basic probability assignment, and use D-S rule combining to give fusion basic probability assignment m. Finally, t...

This paper presents an algorithm for viewpointbased similarity discernment of linguistic concepts on Semantic Network Array Processor (SNAP). The viewpoint-based similarity discernment plays a key role in retrieving similar propositions. This is useful for advanced knowledge processing areas such as analogical reasoning and case-based reasoning. The algorithm assumes that a knowledge base is co...

The purpose of this paper is to validate G.L.S Shackle’s theory Potential surprise in economic decisions. critique against potential its subjective process making Attempts at formalizing the mathematical sense have seen inductive use sub-additive probabilities and infinite alleles with frame discernment (θ) for evidence theory. theory, generally seems inseparable from set probability regarding ...

Before starting medical school, students are asked to complete the Association of American Medical Colleges matriculating student questionnaire predict their eventual career in medicine. These same then a school graduation at completion school. Analysis these surveys can be used track students’ initial specialty choice, whether they eventually matched that choice (early discernment), had select...

Nodes in a distributed sensor network (DSN) gather and fuse information generated by heterogeneous sources to arrive at local decisions targeted at achieving a given global mission objective. These sources typically possess very diverse scopes of ‘expertise’ or frames of discernment (FoDs) that renders updating a knowledge base from the evidence received a challenging task. In this paper, we pr...

In this paper we present a new probability function G that generalizes the classical probability function. A mass function is an assignment of basic probability to some context (events, propositions). It represents the strength of support for some contexts in a domain. A context is a subset of the basic elements of interest in a domain – the frame of discernment. It is a medium to carry the “pr...
