117 Standards I n February 1997, I wrote a Computer column titled " Linking Computers and Consumer Electronics, " which described the IEEE 1394 networking standard, otherwise known as FireWire. FireWire was designed to link personal computers, digital cameras , televisions, DVD players, printers, and other home electronics equipment. In one sense, FireWire represented the technology behind all ...

An intrusion detection system (IDS) detects unauthorized manipulations of computer systems. Operation as feature reduction (including feature extraction and feature selection) plays an important role in the sense of improving classification performance and reducing the computational complexity of intrusion detection system. Feature reduction is even more important at online detection when less ...

In this paper, a new Fuzzy Morphology (FM) based on the GeneralizedDempster-Shafer Theory (GDST) is proposed. At first, in order to clarify the similarity ofdefinitions between Mathematical Morphology (MM) and Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST),dilation and erosion morphological operations are studied from a different viewpoint. Then,based on this similarity, a FM based on the GDST is proposed. Unlik...

A simple Monte-Carlo algorithm can be used to calculate Dempster-Shafer belief very efficiently unless the conflict between the evidences is very high. This paper introduces and explores Markov Chain Monte-Carlo algorithms for calculating Dempster-Shafer belief that can also work well when the conflict is high.

Several approaches of structuring (factorization, decomposition) of Dempster-Shafer joint belief functions from literature are reviewed with special emphasis on their capability to capture independence from the point of view of the claim that belief functions generalize bayes notion of probability. It is demonstrated that Zhu and Lee's {Zhu:93} logical networks and Smets' {Smets:93} directed ac...
