Dempster-Shafer rule fusion identification on sensitive information sources

It is studied that Dempster-Shafer (D-S) rule fusion identification on sensitive information sources. The properties, formulas and characteristics of uniquely fusible identification, partly fusible identification and whole fusible identification of D-S rule on two sensitive information sources are obtained. The accuracy of D-S rule fusion identification on sensitive information sources (especially, for the case of uniquely fusible identification,) is effectively measured by the absolute error and the relative error under new concepts such as the most compatible, compatible, not compatible, fusible degree and compatible degree etc. Further, the robustness of D-S rule fusion identification on sensitive information sources is introduced. And it is obtained that the conditions of robustness of uniquely fusible identification of D-S rule on two sensitive information sources and that the robustness fusion identification has a very small fusion error while the non-robustness fusion identification has a very large fusion error. Finally, examples of uniquely fusible identification of D-S rule on sensitive information sources show the results. The results of D-S rule fusion identification on sensitive information sources can be applied to identification problems in robotics and target tracking etc fields.
