Consid{é}rant la d{é}pendance dans la th{é}orie des fonctions de croyance

Abstract: In this paper, we propose to learn sources independence in order to choose the appropriate type of combination rules when aggregating their beliefs. Some combination rules are used with the assumption of their sources independence whereas others combine beliefs of dependent sources. Therefore, the choice of the combination rule depends on the independence of sources involved in the combination. In this paper, we propose also a measure of independence, positive and negative dependence to integrate in mass functions before the combinaision with the independence assumption.
