Evidence reasoning theory with application to the identity estimation and data association systems Original Research Article

The theory of Dempster-Shafer is discussed with emphasis placed on its use grown from the field of multisensor data fusion and data association systems. The aims of this paper are to investigate: how the structure of multisensor integration systems influences over the accuracy of objects identification process; to determine the dependence of the degree of uncertainty on the speed of receiving best evidential intervals; to determine what is the impact of increasing number of sensors on the calculation time. The computer simulation results are described and discussed.
