Can We Trust Subjective Logic for Information Fusion?

Authors: Jean Dezert, Albena Tchamova, Deqiang Han, Jean-Marc Tacnet

In this paper, we provide a deep examination of the main bases of Subjective Logic (SL) and reveal serious problems with them. A new interesting alternative way for building a normal coarsened basic belief assignment from a refined one is also proposed. The defects in the SL fusion rule and the problems in the link between opinion and Beta probability density functions are also analyzed. Some numerical examples and related analyses are provided to justify our viewpoints.
