Assessing forensic evidence by computing belief functions

open access: yes, 2016
We first discuss certain problems with the classical probabilistic approach for assessing forensic evidence, in particular its inability to distinguish between lack of belief and disbelief, and its inability to model complete ignorance within a given ...

Predictive processing's flirt with transcendental idealism

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 60, Issue 1, Page 87-109, March 2026.
Abstract The popular predictive processing (PP) framework posits prediction error minimization (PEM) as the sole mechanism in the brain that can account for all mental phenomena, including consciousness. I first highlight three ambitions associated with major presentations of PP: (1) Completeness (PP aims for a comprehensive account of mental phenomena)

ON THE USE OF THE DEMPSTER SHAFER MODEL IN INFORMATION INDEXING AND RETRIEVAL APPLICATIONS [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The Dempster Shafer theory of evidence concerns the elicitation and manipulation of degrees of belief rendered by multiple sources of evidence to a common set of propositions.

Omni Geometry Representation Learning Versus Large Language Models for Geospatial Entity Resolution

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The development, integration, and maintenance of geospatial databases rely heavily on efficient and accurate matching procedures of Geospatial Entity Resolution (ER). While resolution of points‐of‐interest (POIs) has been widely addressed, resolution of entities with diverse geometries has been largely overlooked.

A Neighborhood Rough Classification with Dempster-Shafer Evidence Theory

open access: yesNantong Daxue xuebao. Ziran kexue ban, 2021
In order to further improve the classification mechanism and the performance of neighborhood classifier, a Dempster-Shafer(D-S) evidence-driven neighborhood rough classification method is proposed. Firstly, in attribute reduction, the error rate of neighborhood decision is used as the index of attribute significance, and the attribute reduction method ...

A Mini Review on Evolution of High‐Entropy Alloy Design: From Experimental Approaches to Machine Learning Integration

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐entropy alloys (HEAs) have emerged as a transformative class of materials distinguished by their complex chemical compositions, unique microstructures, and remarkable mechanical and functional properties. Traditionally, the discovery and optimization of HEAs have relied on conventional methods, including trial‐and‐error experimentation ...

Assessing the Usefulness of Assurance Cases: Experience With the Large Hadron Collider

open access: yesSystems Engineering, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 99-113, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Assurance cases (ACs) are structured arguments designed to show that a system is sufficiently reliable to function properly in its operational environment. They are mandated by safety standards and are largely used in industry to support risk management for systems; however, ACs often contain proprietary information and are not publicly ...

Partial Discharge Pattern Recognition Based on Time‐Frequency Multi‐Scale Residual Attention Network

open access: yesIET Science, Measurement &Technology, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
A time‐frequency multi‐scale residual attention network (TFMRAnet) was designed to analyze partial discharge (PD) signals. The network comprises an adaptive denoising network based on multi‐scale residual attention, a frequency‐domain recognition network, and a decision fusion module based on Dempster‐Shafer (D‐S) evidence theory.

Multidimensional Topological Measure Spaces and Their Applications in Decision‐Making Problems

open access: yesAdvances in Fuzzy Systems, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This paper presents a generalized framework termed the multidimensional topological measure space (MDTMS), developed through multidimensional fuzzy sets, multidimensional topology, and an associated distance measure. The suggested framework enhances traditional fuzzy models by facilitating a more nuanced representation and examination of intricate ...
