Developing an explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) that can process information in uncertain environments is crucial. This paper addresses the lack of a unified approach for information processing by proposing an isopignistic transformation based on belief evolution networks. The isopignistic transformation adjusts the information granule while retaining potential decision outcomes. It integrates with the hyper-cautious transferable belief model to establish a new canonical decomposition, offering a reverse path between possibility distributions and isopignistic mass functions. This paper also introduces a method for reconstructing basic belief assignments by adjusting the isopignistic function. The hyper-cautious transferable belief model can handle uncertainty, providing a theoretical basis for building XAI models based on probability theory, Dempster-Shafer theory, and possibility theory.

This paper is about developing artificial intelligence that can make good decisions even when there’s uncertainty. The authors want to find a way to make sure the AI understands how it made its decision. They propose a new method called “isopignistic transformation” that helps the AI adjust what it knows while still making good decisions. This method combines with another idea called “hyper-cautious transferable belief model” to create a new way of understanding uncertainty. The authors also show how this method can be used to make sure the AI’s decisions are fair and consistent. Overall, this paper helps us understand how AI can make better decisions in uncertain situations.
