13 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 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 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...
متن کاملThe Dempster-Shafer Theory
The initial work introducing Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory is found in Dempster (1967) and Shafer (1976). Since its introduction the very name causes confusion, a more general term often used is belief functions (both used intermittently here). Nguyen (1978) points out, soon after its introduction, that the rudiments of D-S theory can be considered through distributions of random sets. More furt...
متن کاملA Generalized Dempster-Shafer Evidence Theory
Dempster–Shafer evidence theory has been widely used in various fields of applications. Besides, it has been proven that the quantum theory has powerful capabilities of solving the decision making problems. However, due to the inconsistency of the expression, the classical Dempster–Shafer evidence theory modelled by real numbers can not be integrated directly with the quantum theory modelled by...
