Conflicting evidence combination by using uncertainty degree
Zhiqiang Hou · Control theory & applications · 2011
Dempster-Shafer evidence theory is widely applied to the fields of information fusion.To suppress the coun-terintuitive results generated in the combination of high conflicting bodies of evidence,a modified evidence combination approach is proposed.Uncertainty degree is used to generate the weights,which are used to modify the bodies of evi-dence before the combination based on the Dempster’s rule.Numerical examples show the efficiency and rationality of the proposed approach.
