Description

Computes the normalized entropy of a capacity. The capacity is given either as its Mobius transform.

Inputs

(For outputs, see below)

criteria

Description:

A list of criteria. Criteria can be activated or desactivated via the <active> tag (true or false). By default (no <active> tag), criteria are considered as active.

mobiusCapacity

Description:

The Mobius transform of a capacity.

        [...]
    </criteriaValues>
    

kAdditivity

Description:

Indicates the level of k-additivity of the Mobius capacity (the Mobius transform of subsets whose cardinal is superior to k vanishes).

GUI information:

  • Parameter values can be defined via the GUI or the XMCDA file, by default via the XMCDA file.

  • Name: kAdditivity

    Indicates the level of k-additivity of the Mobius capacity (the Mobius transform of subsets whose cardinal is superior to k vanishes).

    • Constraint description: The value should be a positive integer, less than or equal to the number of criteria.
    • Type: integer
    • Default value: 1
