The Selection of the Dempster’s Rule Based on Evidence Trap Problem in D-S Theory

摘要：

Dempster’s rule may not handle the conflicting belief structures in several situations. The Dempster’s combination rule and its alternatives have been under the microscope. This paper focus on the conflicting belief structure problem and comes up with an evidence trap problem. A method of determining whether to select the Dempster’s rule of combination or not when there is an evidence trap is proposed. The method deploys the conflict coefficient and the distance between belief structures as a two-dimensional measure with two thresholds settled. Numeric examples show the efficiency of the proposed method.
