Forecasting Using Information and Entropy Based on Belief Functions
Complexity, 2020 This paper introduces an entropy-based belief function to the forecasting problem. While the likelihood-based belief function needs to know the distribution of the objective function for the prediction, the entropy-based belief function does not. This is

The normativity of belief [PDF]
, 2014 This is a survey of recent debates concerning the normativity of belief. We explain what the thesis that belief is normative involves, consider arguments for and against that thesis, and explore its bearing on debates in ...

A New Distance Measure of Belief Function in Evidence Theory
IEEE Access, 2019 How to measure the similarity or distance between the basic probability assignment (BPA) in evidence theory is an open issue. The existing evidence distance function has the shortcoming that the cardinality of each subset is not reasonably considered. To

Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Although research has highlighted the importance of home experience and especially of play in early brain development, the value of this factor for executive function (EF) development has not received the attention it deserves. The purpose of the present

A Behavioral Interpretation of Belief Functions [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Probability, 2017 Shafer's belief functions were introduced in the seventies of the previous century as a mathematical tool in order to model epistemic probability. One of the reasons that they were not picked up by mainstream probability was the lack of a behavioral interpretation. In this paper we provide such a behavioral interpretation, and re-derive Shafer's belief

Negation of Basic Probability Assignment: Trends of Dissimilarity and Dispersion
IEEE Access, 2019 In the field of knowledge representation, negation has been introduced so that practical issues can be modelled more effectively. The negation of probability was first formally determined by Zadeh, with its basic properties proposed by Yager.

A Novel Cooperative Hunting Algorithm for Inhomogeneous Multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
IEEE Access, 2018 Cooperative hunting of multi-autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is an important research topic. Current studies concentrate on AUVs with the same speed abilities and mostly do not consider their speed differences.

Modeling Sensor Reliability in Fault Diagnosis Based on Evidence Theory
Sensors, 2016 Sensor data fusion plays an important role in fault diagnosis. Dempster–Shafer (D-R) evidence theory is widely used in fault diagnosis, since it is efficient to combine evidence from different sensors.
