The novel algorithm introduced in this paper integrates multiple pre-trained Deep Learning (DL) models using Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST), enabling more reliable and enhanced classifications. The proposed method involves feature extraction, mass function calculation, fusion, and expected utility calculation. By leveraging DST, the ensemble demonstrates superior classification accuracy on CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets, achieving improvements of 5.4% and 8.4%, respectively, over individual pre-trained models.

This paper helps make better predictions by combining multiple AI models using a special theory called Dempster-Shafer Theory. Imagine you’re trying to decide what’s in a picture – the algorithm takes features from the picture, calculates how sure it is about each feature, and then combines them to make a more informed decision.
