A New Uncertainty Measure in Belief Entropy Framework
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
Belief entropy, which represents the uncertainty measure between several pieces of evidence in the Dempster-Shafer framework, is attracting increasing interest in research. It has been used in many applications and is mainly based on the theory of evidence. To quantify uncertainty, several measures have been proposed in the literature. These measures, sometimes in extended or hybrid forms, use the Shannon entropy principle to determine uncertainty degree. However, the failure to consider the scale of the frame of discernment framework remains an open issue in quantifying uncertainty. In this paper, we propose a new uncertainty measure that takes into account the power set of the frame of discernment. After analysing the different existing methods, we show the performance and effectiveness of our proposed approach.
