Dynamic determination of sensor credibility in data fusion and its application

Based on the modified conflict coefficient which takes the consideration of classical conflict coefficient and evidence distance compressively, a new model to dynamically determine the sensor credibility through data collected in multisensor systems was constructed in this paper. A numerical example in target recognition was used to illustrate the efficiency of the method. It is shown that correct results can be obtained when the evidences conflict with each other even in a high degree.
