Entropy of Belief Functions in the Dempster-Shafer Theory: A New Perspective
Original language description
The paper proposes a new definition of entropy of basic probability assignments (BPA) in the Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory of belief functions, which is interpreted as a measure of total uncertainty in the BPA. A list of five desired properties of entropy for D-S belief functions theory is stated that are motivated by Shannon's definition of entropy of probability functions, together with the implicit requirement that any definition should be consistent with the semantics of D-S belief functions theory.
