Abstract :
In this paper, we extend the set of" properties required for total uncertainty measures in the Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence (DST). For this purpose, we take into account properties and behaviors considered for these type of measures which have appeared in the literature. We analyze the differences between the main total uncertainty measures presented in DST in terms of their properties and behavior.
