MEASURING GRANULARITY IN EVIDENCE THEORY

Pages 649-660 | Received 04 Jul 2000, Accepted 14 Mar 2001, Published online: 21 May 2007
 

Abstract

A new measure of uncertainty for evidence theory is presented. The measure of granularity is similar in form to the Shannon entropy but depends on set size as well as weight. It also has connections to the Hartley measure and the granularity measure of rough set theory.
