✦ Synopsis

Important modifications to the theory of evidential reasoning (Dempster-Shafer theory) are presented. By relaxing the requirement that basic probability mass assignments have unity norm and by omitting the normalization step in Dempster's rule of combination the algorithm is improved. A detailed comparison with the original theory is made and formal results are proved. Applicability of the modifications is examined and some cautionary notes are given. 1994 Academic Press, inc.
