This paper summarized the development and recent studies of the explanations of D-S model, evidence combination algorithms, and the improvement of the conflict during evidence combination, and also compared all explanation models,algorithms, improvements, and their applicable conditions. We are trying to provide a reference for future research and applications through this summarization.展开更多
