Abstract :
We present in this paper a new approach to determine the relevant focal elements within the framework of theories of belief functions and plausible and paradoxical reasoning. This approach is based on spectral information represented in the form of gray levels histograms. The particularity of this approach lies in its ability to reduce the sets of composites classes by keeping only the focal elements. Thus, the spatial and temporal complexity of the fusion and classification system based on the two theories is reduced.
