Abstract :
The transferable belief model (TBM) is a model to quantify personal subjective belief. It covers the same domain as the Bayesian model except it is based on belief functions instead of probability functions. A belief function bel is a function from the Boolean algebra based on a finite frame of discernment Ω (the universe of discourse) on the closed interval [0,1]
