The D-S evidence theory is an excellent method of information fusion. Because of the difference which is caused by the sensors, it is essential to deal with the evidence with a method of weighed D-S theory. Presently, the study of the weighed D-S theory is confined to synthetic methods, and the study on how to obtain better weight value is also rarely covered. In fact, the definition of the weight values is fundamental to the process of weight-synthesizing the evidence. Considering the disadvantages of the weighed D-S theory, this article presents a best method of obtaining evidence value. After elaborating the thoughts of the new method, this article provides an excellent value by establishing an optimized model and improving the particle swarm algorithm. Compared with the compared methods, this evidence theory proves more effective and advanced by making simulation test.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
