Conicting evidence combination based on a new measure method of uncertainty

In order to deal with the problem that Dempster-Shafer evidence theory will lead to fault results of information fusion under the situation of highly conicting evidence, the solution procedure are proposed based on a new measure method of uncertainty. It analyzed the deficiencies of several existing uncertain measure methods, and studied the information contained in basic probability assignment, then proposed a new method to measure the uncertainty of evidence. According to the new approach of uncertainty measure, we could combine it with distance of evidence to generate weight, then we exploited the Dempster's rule to complete evidence combinations. In this way, we can deal with the problem of information fusion by Dempster's rule of combination effectively, when it comes to highly conicting evidence combination. Finally, several examples illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
