arXiv: 1704.01742 · 2017-04-07

## TL;DR

This paper introduces a probabilistic interpretation of the Dempster-Shafer theory, proposing a new evidence combination rule that maintains the plausibility interpretation, enhancing the theoretical framework for evidence-based reasoning.

## Contribution

It offers a novel probabilistic interpretation of the Dempster-Shafer theory and a new evidence combination rule that preserves this interpretation.

## Key findings

- New probabilistic interpretation of plausibility
- A novel evidence combination rule
- Preservation of interpretation with the new rule

## Abstract

This paper suggests a new interpretation of the Dempster-Shafer theory in terms of probabilistic interpretation of plausibility. A new rule of combination of independent evidence is shown and its preservation of interpretation is demonstrated.
