What is DSmT ?

The Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSmT) of plausible and paradoxical reasoning is a natural extension of the classical Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) but includes fundamental differences with the DST. DSmT allows to formally combine any types of independent sources of information  represented in term of belief functions, but is mainly focused on the fusion of uncertain, highly conflicting  and imprecise quantitative or qualitative sources of evidence. DSmT  is able to solve complex, static or dynamic fusion problems beyond the limits of the DST framework, specially when conflicts between sources become large and when the refinement of the frame of the problem under consideration becomes inaccessible because of vague, relative and imprecise nature of elements of it.

Biographies of F. Smarandache and J. Dezert

Florentin Smarandache was born in Balcesti, Romania, in 1954.  He got a M. Sc. Degree in both Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Craiova in 1979, received a Ph. D. in Mathematics from the Moldova State University at Kishinev in 1997, and continued postdoctoral studies and research at various American Universities (New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, Los Alamos National Laboratory), Okayama University of Sciences (Japan), etc. after emigration.  In 1988 he escaped from his country, pasted two years in a political refugee camp in Turkey, and in 1990 emigrated to USA.  In 1996 he became an American citizen.  Dr. Smarandache worked as a professor of mathematics for many years in Romania, Morocco, and United States, and between 1990-1995 as a software engineer for Honeywell, Inc., in Phoenix, Arizona.  He is an author, co-author, editor, and co-editor of 140 books and over 180 scientific papers and notes.

He published in many fields, such as: mathematics (number theory, statistics, non-Euclidean geometry), computer science (artificial intelligence, information fusion), physics (quantum physics, particle physics), economics (cultural economics, poly-emporium theory), philosophy (neutrosophy a generalization of dialectics, neutrosophic logic a generalization of intuitionistic fuzzy logic), social sciences (political essays), literature (poetry, prose, essays, novel, dramas, children plays, translations), arts (avant-garde/experimental drawings, collages, paintings).

Together with Dr. Jean Dezert from France, he is the creator of Dezert-Smarandache Theory in Information Fusion (applied mathematics), together with Dr. J. Dezert from France. This theory is internationally known since it is used in robotics, medicine, military, cybernetics, and every year since 2003 he is invited to present tutorials and papers about it at Fusion International Conferences in Australia (2003), Sweden (2004), USA (2005), Italy (2006), Canada (2007), Germany (2008), or at Marcus Evans s Defense Seminars in Spain (2006), Belgium (2007), or at other universities (in Indonesia in 2006). He was invited speaker and sponsored by NASA in 2004 and by NATO in 2005. His papers are published by the Proceedings of these Conferences.

Many Ph D Theses have been sustained at universities in Canada, France, Italy, and a M. Sc. Thesis at Tehran University in Iran.

In Smarandache algebraic structures, such as monoid, semigroup, vector space, linear algebra, etc.,  students from IIT (Indian Institute of Technology)  in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, did and still do Ph D theses under the direction of Dr. W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy, who is one of his contributors to many such algebraic structures studies (see algebra.htm).

He set up and developed the Neutrosophic Logic/Set/Probability, which are generalizations of fuzzy logic (especially intuitionistic fuzzy logic), fuzzy set (especially intuitionistic fuzzy set), and respectively imprecise probability. He was an invited speaker at University of Berkeley in 2003 at a conference organized by the famous L. Zadeh, the father of fuzzy sets; also invited speaker in India (2004), Indonesia (2006), Egypt (2007). There were two Ph D theses on them at Georgia State University in Atlanta, and at Queensland University in Australia.

He is the editor of the international journal Progress in Physics , printed and edited at UNM-Gallup, with international contributors and sponsors, and subscriptions from various research nuclear institutes from around the world. See one of its issues at: PP-03-2008.pdf. In physics he coined the notion of unmatter , revealed some Sorites quantum paradoxes , used the neutrosophic logic (which is a multi-valued logic) to extend physics spaces, and extended together with V. Christianto physical differential equations from quaternion form to biquaternion form; see also the Smarandache-Christianto potential (physics.htm).

In Economics he wrote together with V. Christianto about cultural economics as an alternative for underdeveloped countries, and proposed a poly-emporium theory (economics.htm).

In Philosophy he did a synthesis of multiple contradictory philosophical ideas and schools of thought, extending Hegel s dialectics to neutrosophy, which means analysis of not only the opposites but also the neutralities in between that interact with them (/neutrosophy.htm).

In humanistic fields, he is considered the father of paradoxism in literature, which is an avant-garde movement based on excessive use of antitheses, oxymorons, contradictions, paradoxes in creations. He published five International Anthologies on Paradoxism, where have contributed hundreds of writers from over the world (a/Paradoxism.htm).

Jean Dezert was born in l'Hay les Roses, France, on August 25, 1962.  He received the electrical engineering degree from the cole Fran aise de Radio lectricit lectronique et Informatique (EFREI), Paris, in 1985, the D.E.A. degree in 1986 from the University Paris VII (Jussieu), and his Ph. D. from the University Paris XI, Orsay, in 1990, all in Automatic Control and Signal Processing.  During 1986-1990 he was with the Systems Department at the Office National d' tudes et de Recherches A rospatiales (ONERA), Ch tillon, France, and did research in tracking. During 1991-1992, he visited the Department of Electrical and Systems Engineering, University of Connecticut, Storrs, U.S.A. as an European Space Agency (ESA) Postdoctoral Research Fellow. During 1992-1993 he was teaching assistant in Electrical Engineering at the University of Orl ans, France.  Since 1993, he is senior research scientist in the Image Estimation and Decision (IED) Research Lab. with the Information and Modelling and Processing Department (DTIM) at ONERA. His current research interests include autonomous navigation, estimation theory, stochastic systems theory and its applications to multisensor-multitarget tracking (MS-MTT), information fusion and plausible reasoning.  Dr. Jean Dezert is developing since 2001 with Professor Smarandache a new theory of plausible and paradoxical reasoning for information fusion (DSmT) and has edited the first textbook (collected works) devoted to this new emerging research field published by American Research Press, Rehoboth in 2004. He owns one international patent in the autonomous navigation field and has published several papers in international conferences and journals.  He coauthored one chapter in Multitarget-Multisensor Tracking: Applications and Advances, Vol.2 (Y. Bar-Shalom Editor).  He is member of IEEE and of Eta Kappa Nu, serves as reviewer for different International Journals, teaches a MS-MTT course at the French ENSTA Engineering School, collaborates for the development of the International Society of Information Fusion (ISIF) since 1998, and has served as Local Arrangements Organizer for the Third International Conference on Information Fusion, FUSION 2000, July 10-13, in Paris. He has been involved in the Technical Program Committees of Fusion 2001-2004 International Conferences.  Since 2001, he is a member of the board of the International Society of Information Fusion (http://www.isif.org) and served as secretary for ISIF since 2001. He serves as executive vice-president of ISIF in 2004. In 2003, he organized with Professor Smarandache, the first special session devoted to plausible and paradoxical reasoning for information fusion at the International Conference on Information Fusion, Fusion 2003, Cairns, Australia and also a panel discussion and a special session on DSmT at Fusion 2004, Stockholm in June 2004.
