Updating attribute fusion results with additional evidence using DSmT

This paper performs an investigation related to updating uncertain evidence with confirmed or verified information for the purpose of information fusion in C2 systems. The key question is to decide whether the updating of uncertain evidence with information originated from inference should apply combination rules or conditioning rules. The author's suggestion is in the first place to investigate whether the mentioned categorisation of rules (combination and conditioning) reflects any significant difference in fusion performance to justify the category distinction in the practical term.
