iDCR: Improved Dempster Combination Rule for Multisensor Fault Diagnosis
Data gathered from multiple sensors can be effectively fused for accurate monitoring of many engineering applications. In the last few years, one of the most sought after applications for multi sensor fusion has been fault diagnosis. Dempster-Shafer Theory of Evidence along with Dempsters Combination Rule is a very popular method for multi sensor fusion which can be successfully applied to fault diagnosis. But if the information obtained from the different sensors shows high conflict, the classical Dempsters Combination Rule may produce counter-intuitive result. To overcome this shortcoming, this paper proposes an improved combination rule for multi sensor data fusion. Numerical examples have been put forward to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. Comparative analysis has also been carried out with existing methods to show the superiority of the proposed method in multi sensor fault diagnosis.

Decision MakingOn the Combinality of Evidence in the Dempster-Shafer Theory
In the current versions of the Dempster-Shafer theory, the only essential restriction on the validity of the rule of combination is that the sources of evidence must be statistically independent. Under this assumption, i…
