Updating the Evidence in the Dempster-Shafer Theory
An algorithm for updating the evidence in the Dempster–Shafer theory is presented. The algorithm is based on an idea of indices. These indices are used to code the process of reasoning under uncertainty (the combination of evidence)using the Dempster-Shafer theory. The algorithm allows to carry out the reasoning with updating the evidence in much more efficient way than using the original Demps...
متن کاملA Sensor-Based Scheme for Activity Recognition in Smart Homes using Dempster-Shafer Theory of Evidence
This paper proposes a scheme for activity recognition in sensor based smart homes using Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence. In this work, opinion owners and their belief masses are constructed from sensors and employed in a single-layered inference architecture. The belief masses are calculated using beta probability distribution function. The frames of opinion owners are derived automatically ...
متن کاملDempster-Shafer Belief Function - A New Interpretation
We develop our interpretation of the joint belief distribution and of evidential updating that matches the following basic requirements: * there must exist an efficient method for reasoning within this framework * there must exist a clear correspondence between the contents of the knowledge base and the real world * there must be a clear correspondence between the reasoning method and some real...
متن کامل13 The Dempster - Shafer Theory of Evidence
The drawbacks of pure probabilistic methods and of the certainty factor model have led us in recent years to consider alternate approaches. Particularly appealing is the mathematical theory of evidence developed by Arthur Dempster. We are convinced it merits careful study and interpretation in the context of expert systems. This theory was first set forth by Dempster in the 1960s and subsequent...
متن کاملCombination of Evidence in Dempster-Shafer Theory
Dempster-Shafer theory offers an alternative to traditional probabilistic theory for the mathematical representation of uncertainty. The significant innovation of this framework is that it allows for the allocation of a probability mass to sets or intervals. DempsterShafer theory does not require an assumption regarding the probability of the individual constituents of the set or interval. This...
