On Some Equivalence Relations between Incidence Calculus and Dempster-Shafer Theory of Evidence

arXiv:1304.1126

Abstract

Incidence Calculus and Dempster-Shafer Theory of Evidence are both theories to describe agents' degrees of belief in propositions, thus being appropriate to represent uncertainty in reasoning systems. This paper presents a straightforward equivalence proof between some special cases of these theories.
