Belief functions and rough sets: Survey and new insights
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 2022 Rough set theory and belief function theory, two popular mathematical frameworks for uncertainty representation, have been widely applied in different settings and contexts.

Belief functions induced by random fuzzy sets: A general framework for representing uncertain and fuzzy evidence [PDF]
Fuzzy Sets Syst., 2020 We revisit Zadeh's notion of "evidence of the second kind" and show that it provides the foundation for a general theory of epistemic random fuzzy sets, which generalizes both the Dempster-Shafer theory of belief functions and possibility theory. In this

RPREC: A Radar Plot Recognition Algorithm Based on Adaptive Evidence Classification
Applied Sciences, 2023 When radar receives target echoes to form plots, it is inevitably affected by clutter, which brings a lot of imprecise and uncertain information to target recognition.

Involutory Negator of Basic Belief Assignments
Cybernetics and Information Technologies, 2023 This paper analyzes the different definitions of a negator of a probability mass function (pmf) and a Basic Belief Assignment (BBA) available in the literature.

Decision making with consonant belief functions: Discrepancy resulting with the probability transformation method used [PDF]
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2014 Dempster−Shafer belief function theory can address a wider class of uncertainty than the standard probability theory does, and this fact appeals the researchers in operations research society for potential application areas. However, the lack of

Two Applications of Inter-Criteria Analysis with Belief Functions
Cybernetics and Information Technologies, 2020 In this paper we present two applications of a new Belief Function-based Inter-Criteria Analysis (BF-ICrA) approach for the assessment of redundancy of criteria involved in Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) problems.

On properties of a new decomposable entropy of Dempster-Shafer belief functions
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 2020 We define entropy of belief functions in the Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory that satisfies a compound distributions property that is analogous to the property that characterizes Shannon's definitions of entropy and conditional entropy for probability mass ...

Decision-Making with Belief Functions: a Review [PDF]
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 2018 Approaches to decision-making under uncertainty in the belief function framework are reviewed. Most methods are shown to blend criteria for decision under ignorance with the maximum expected utility principle of Bayesian decision theory. A distinction is

A New Image Registration Algorithm Based on Evidential Reasoning
Sensors, 2019 Image registration is a crucial and fundamental problem in image processing and computer vision, which aims to align two or more images of the same scene acquired from different views or at different times.
