A new weighting factor in combining belief function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Dempster-Shafer evidence theory has been widely used in various applications. However, to solve the problem of counter-intuitive outcomes by using classical Dempster-Shafer combination rule is still an open issue while fusing the conflicting evidences ...

The Greatest Mystery of Futures Studies

open access: yesFUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 8, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Futures studies has long lived with a puzzle: every domain the field investigates is already studied by some special science. Three familiar replies—that futures studies extracts insights, takes a longer view, or includes lay perspectives—each capture something real but do not, on closer inspection, individuate the field at the level of its ...

Measuring the Uncertainty in the Original and Negation of Evidence Using Belief Entropy for Conflict Data Fusion

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
Dempster-Shafer (DS) evidence theory is widely used in various fields of uncertain information processing, but it may produce counterintuitive results when dealing with conflicting data.

Multi‐Model Ensembles in Ecosystem Modeling: Challenges and Best Practices for Decision‐Making

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
As ecosystem models increasingly inform environmental policy, markets, and climate‐related investments, this article highlights a critical but often overlooked issue: combining multiple models does not automatically make predictions more reliable.

Non‐negative Gaussian estimation of variance components in random effects models

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, Volume 54, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract When used to estimate variance components (VCs), confidence intervals (CIs) can be truncated at zero, have a point estimate not in the quoted CI, be empty with positive probability, or be all‐inclusive. This is because they have conflicting dual roles, since they are considered to cover the parameter with a specified probability while also ...

A Novel Framework for Quantitative Evaluation of Resilience Performance of Sea Lanes of Communication

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sea lanes of communication (SLOC) are perceived as intricate systems comprising shipping routes, key straits, and canals, which are increasingly vulnerable to external disruptions. This study proposes a holistic framework for resilience assessment on the system by introducing an advanced framework incorporating fuzzy logic, a critic weight ...

Condition Monitoring and Fault Diagnosis Model of Pole Mounted Circuit Breaker Based on Multi‐Source Heterogeneous Cross Modal Information Fusion

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
This figure illustrates the architecture of the PMCB fault diagnosis model with multi‐source heterogeneous cross‐modal fusion. It integrates core modules to realize high‐precision, low false‐alarm condition monitoring and diagnosis. ABSTRACT Aiming at the defects of current diagnosis methods for Primary and Secondary Integrated Pole Mounted Circuit ...
