Fortified quantum mass function utilizing ordinal pictorial check based on time interval analysis and expertise

A lot of relevant works have been completed to provided different kinds of method to properly handle information offered which promotes the development of information industry. The representatives of the corresponding theories are soft theory [1-5], Z-numbers [6-9], D-numbers [10-14], fuzzy theory [15-18], Dempster-Shafer evidence theory [19-23] and some other mixed theories [24-26]. And the effectiveness of these theories are verified in many practical applications, like risk evaluation [27-29], pattern classification [30], optimization [31-34] and decision making [35-38]. Moreover, due to the rapid progress of quantum computing, some researchers come up with the idea that traditional information management can be transferred to the level of quantum. Some meaningful works about the topic are complex mass function [39-43] and quantum information theory [44-47]. In this paper, the proposed method is based on the quantum model of mass function [47]. In order to avoid the deviation which may caused by the original quantum evidences, a dual check system is designed to ensure the authenticity of the original judgments which utilizes the concept of Z-number [9]. Besides, because of the introduction of the time interval, a specially devised rule is proposed to appropriately decide the importance of different relationships of incidents, which is a kind of expert system under some restrictions. The contributions of the proposed method can be listed as: (1) The second dual check system can help avoid the deviation produced by the original evidences to help provide more effective results.
