Heterogeneous Multi-sensor Fusion Based on an Evidential Network for Fall Detection
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Among multi-sensor data fusion techniques, Bayesian methods and evidence theories such as Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST), are commonly used to handle the degree of uncertainty in the fusion processes. ...
The multi-sensor fusion can provide more accurate and reliable information compared to information from each sensor separately taken. ...

Dempster-Shafer Theory for Intrusion Detection in Ad Hoc Networks
2005
IEEE Internet Computing
The Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence is well suited for this type of problem because it reflects uncertainty. ...
The authors review the Dempster-Shafer theory in the context of distributed intrusion detection and demonstrate the theory's usefulness. ...
Dempster-Shafer Formalities The Dempster-Shafer theory is appealing partly because it can handle uncertainty or ignorancethat is, the lack of knowledge of the complete probabilistic model required for ...

Uncertainty in Ontologies: Dempster-Shafer Theory for Data Fusion Applications
[article]
2011
arXiv
pre-print
Therefore, we constructed a Dempster-Shafer ontology that can be imported into any specific domain ontology and that enables us to instantiate it in an uncertain manner. ...
In addition, uncertainty is perhaps one of the most important characteristics of the data and information handled by Data Fusion. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENT We are grateful to Arnaud Saval and Khaled Khelif for their comments and hope that the revised paper has addressed their concerns. ...
