“…Uncertainty management is a key point in uncertain information modeling; many theories and methods have been proposed for intelligent information processing, such as Shannon entropy, 17 probability theory, 18 fuzzy sets, 19 fuzzy inference, 20,21 D-S theory, 22,23 rough sets, 24 support vector machine, 25,26 belief function, [27][28][29] evidence reasoning, [30][31][32] and so on. 33,34 Among all these methods, D-S theory can process vague information modeled in fuzzy sets, and it can lead to information convergence in data fusion.…”
