A. Research Framework
Dempster-Shafer's (DF) theory is a combination,
representation, and propagation of uncertainty, in which this In conducting this research, researchers are guided by the
theory has some characteristics that are intuitive by the way an research framework that can be seen in Figure 1 as follows:
expert thinks, but a strong mathematical basis [14]. In general,
the Dempster-Shafer theory is written in an interval: [Belief,
Plausibility] [15]. Belief (Bel) is a measure of the strength of
evidence in favor of a proposition set. If the value (zero) then
identify that there is no evidence, and if the value 1 indicates a
certainty. Plausibility (Pl) is denoted as: Pl (s) = 1 - Bel (¬s).
Plausibility is also worth 0 to 1. If we are sure of ¬s, then it can
be said that Bel (¬s) = 1, and Pl (¬s) = 0. In Shafer Dempster
theory we recognize the existence of a frame of discernment
denoted by θ. This frame is the universe of speech from a set of
hypotheses [16].
The aim is to relate the trust size of θ elements. Not all pieces
of evidence directly support each element. Therefore, density
function is probable (m). The m value not only defines the
elements θ only but also all its subset. Thus if θ contains n
elements, then the subset θ is n 2. The sum of all m in subset θ
equals 1. If there is no information to select the hypothesis, then
the value: m {θ} = 1.0 If X is a subset of θ, with m1 as its density
function, and Y is also a subset of θ with m2 as its density
function, a combination of m1 and m2 as m3 can be formed, Figure 1. Research Framework
