Dempster-Shafer Argument Schemes

Dempster-Shafer theory, which can be regarded as a generalisation of probability theory, is a widely used formalism for reasoning with uncertain information. The application of the theory hinges on the use of a rule for combining evidence from different sources. A number of different combination rules have been applied, each of which makes certain assumptions about the evidence. Here we describ...

Calculating Dempster-Shafer Plausibility

A sufficient condition is developed for the equality of the plausibility and commonality measures of the Dempster-Shafer belief calculus. When the condition is met, as it is in many applications, an efficient method to calculate relative plausibility is available. In particular, the method can be used to calculate the relative plausibility of atomic hypotheses and, therefore, it can be used to ...

The 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...

Qualitative Dempster - Shafer Theory

This paper introduces the idea of using the Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence with qualitative values. Dempster-Shafer theory is a formalism for reasoning under uncertainty which may be viewed as a generalisation of probability theory with special advantages in its treatment of ambiguous data and the ignorance arising from it. Here we are interested in applying the theory when the numbers that...
