A new model for threat assessment in data fusion based on fuzzy evidence theory

In this paper a new method for threat assessment is proposed based on Fuzzy Evidence Theory. The most widely classical and intelligent methods used for threat assessment systems will be Evidence or Dempster Shafer and Fuzzy Sets Theories. The disadvantage of both methods is failing to calculate of uncertainty in the data from the sensors and the poor reliability of system. To fix this flaw in the system of dynamic targets threat assessment is proposed fuzzy evidence theory as a combination of both Dempster- Shafer and Fuzzy Sets Theories. In this model, the uncertainty in input data from the sensors and the whole system is measured using the best measure of the uncertainty. Also, a comprehensive comparison is done between the uncertainty of fuzzy model and fuzzy- evidence model (proposed method). This method applied to a real time scenario for air threat assessment. The simulation results show that this method is reasonable, effective, accuracy and reliability

Target threat assessment using fuzzy sets theory

The threat evaluation is significant component in target classification process and is significant in military and non military applications. Small errors or mistakes in threat evaluation and target classification especial in military applications can result in huge damage of life and property. Threat evaluation helps in case of weapon assignment, and intelligence sensor support system. It is very important factor to analyze the behavior of enemy tactics as well as our surveillance. This paper represented a precise description of the threat evaluation process using fuzzy sets theory. A review has been carried out regarding which parameters that have been suggested for threat value calculation. For the first time in this paper, eleven parameters are introduced for threat evaluation so that this parameters increase the accuracy in designed system. The implemented threat evaluation system has been applied to a synthetic air defense scenario and four real time dynamic air defense scenarios. The simulation results show the correctness, accuracy, reliability and minimum errors in designing of threat evaluation syste

The improvement of uncertainty measurements accuracy in sensor networks based on fuzzy dempster-shafer theory

Threat Assessment is one of the most important components in combat management systems. However, uncertainty is one of the problems that occur in the input data of these systems that have been provided using several sensors in sensor networks. In literature, there are some theories that state and model uncertainty in the information. One of the new methods is the Fuzzy Dempster-Shafer Theory. In this paper, a model-based uncertainty is presented in the air defense system based on the Fuzzy Dempster-Shafer Theory to measure uncertainty and its accuracy. This model uses the two concepts naming of the Fuzzy Sets Theory, and the Dempster-Shafer Theory. The input parameters to sensors are fuzzy membership functions, and the basic probability assignment values are earned from the Dempster-Shafer Theory. Therefore, in this paper, the combination of two methods has been used to calculate uncertainty in the air defense system. By using these methods and the output of the Dempster-Shafer theory are calculated and presented the uncertainty diagrams. The advantage of the combination of two theories is the better modeling of uncertainties. This makes that the output of the air defense system is more reliable and accurate. In this method, the air defense system’s total uncertainty is measured using the best uncertainty measure based on the Fuzzy Dempster-Shafer Theory. The simulation results show that this new method has increased the accuracy to 97% that is more computational toward other theories. This matter significantly increases the computational accuracy of the air defense system in targets threat assessment
