Abstract - This short paper introduces two new fusion rules for combining quantitative basic belief assignments. These rules although very simple have not been proposed in literatu...
— We prove several new bounds on ordered codes and ordered orthogonal arrays. We also show that the eigenvalues of the ordered Hamming scheme are the multivariable Krawtchouk pol...
