Abstract

The continuous accumulation of massive data result in traditional belief rule inference and decision-making methods unable to adapt to dynamic decision-making scenarios. This study proposed a simple extended belief rule-based inference and decision-making methodology with the consideration of dual updating. The proposed method used an evidential reasoning fusion algorithm addressed the redundancy problem in the original extended belief rule-based system by aggregating the belief distributions of the consequent attributes under the same antecedent attributes, thereby constructing a simple extended belief rule-based system. The proposed method constructed a two-stage structure updating method by using the greedy algorithm for historical and observed data, and it was implemented for both the original and dynamic rule-based systems. In addition, a Bayesian optimization algorithm updated the parameters of the dynamic rule-based system. As a result, the new approach developed and applied an inference model of the updated extended belief rule for rule inference and decision-making in dynamic scenarios. A practical case of ultrasound-assisted diagnosis of thyroid nodules in the ultrasound department of a tertiary hospital in Hefei City, Anhui Province is studied to verify the validity and practicality of the proposed method.
