Dezert Smarandache Theory

As a generalization of Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) of evidence, the '''DezertSmarandache Theory''' (DSmT) of plausible and paradoxical reasoning allows to formally combine any kind of information (certain, uncertain, paradoxical). It was developed by [[Jean Dezert]] and [[Florentin Smarandache]].
The DSmT is able to fusion complex data/information fusion problems where the DST usually fails, especially when conflicts (paradoxes) between sources become large and when the refinement of the frame of discernment is inaccessible because of the vague, relative, and imprecise nature of elements of the frame of discernment. === External links === * [http://www.gallup.unm.edu/~smarandache/DSmT.htm The Dezert-Smarandache Theory of plausible and paradoxical reasoning]
