Wang Yao-de · Kongzhi yu juece · 2011
Dependent evidences can be viewed as the combination results of two independent evidences and the common dependent evidence.Based on this assumption,a reverse operation of combination rule,de-combination rule,is proposed in this paper,and a combination rule for dependent evidences is also given so as to avoid the double counting of the same dependent evidence.A numerical example shows the effectiveness of the proposed rule.
