In the effective combination of conflicting evidences using the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory, the first step is to reasonably measure the conflict between evidences, but there are limitations in the existing conflict measurement methods. Two new conflict measurement methods based on conjunctive combination rule are put forword, which overcome the limitations of the existing measurement methods. They have four satisfactory properties. Firstly, new methods can measure the total conflict between any pieces of evidence simultaneously, which can satisfy the interchangeability and combinability. Secondly, they overcome the operational problem of the existing binary conflict measurement methods. Thirdly, they are more suitable for people's intuitive logic reasoning. Another, their moderate complexity are easy for project implementation. So new methods have better comprehensive effect under different evidence conditions.

Combination Principle

In this paper, the evidence combination principle of Dempster-Shafer (D-S) evidence theory is analyzed in detail. And the method of evidence combination is improved because of the deficiency of D-S evidence theory. Considering the principle“the minority should be subordinate to the majority”, based on Yager’s rule, we put forward a new effective combination rule which works more reasonably.

Introduction: Nowadays, co-infection by interspecific organisms is major threat in infection control. To identify the effective combination of drugs to control the keratitis caused by Candida albicans with Pseudomonas aeruginosa are attributed in this study. Materilas and Methods: The patient of a 47 years old male farmer with infection in the right eye which showed redness and watering was treated with fortified cefazolin and fortified tobramycin before referral. No pigmentation or vascularisation was noted. The excised corneal button was also subjected to microbiological and histopathological examination. Results: A rare case of keratitis caused by co-infection of Candida albicans with Pseudomonas aeruginosa was identified. Results confirmed the inter-specific interaction of the two microorganisms. Conclusion: Cases of co-infection by Candida and Pseudomonas are not abundantly reported and difficult to treat. In this case, treatment involved Amphotercin-B and ciprofloxacin, effectively eradicated the infection. This therapy may be successfully implied for such cases of co-infection in future.

To promote the effective combination of photovoltaic (PV) utilization and urban development, this study proposes that solar PV generation should be taken as an important resource and environmental carrying capacity factor, which is defined as “Photovoltaic Carrying Capacity (PVCC)”, to be integrated into future urban planning. According to the PVCC assessment on global cities, the sensitivity of PVCC to different influence factors is analyzed and the benefits of different optimization strategies on PVCC are also discussed. Additionally, in an equilibrium analysis of PVCC distribution in six sample countries, we discuss both the causes and impact of their distribution gap. That analysis shows that the average PVCC in global urban areas can reach 23.13%, which approaches the anticipated needs of PV development in cities by 2050.Though different optimization strategies may be feasible to promote urban PVCC, they might only make significant changes in medium or large cities. When considering the high-efficient utility of local energy, dispersed layout of cities and population is necessary to implement PV spatial planning. According to the assessment and analysis results, the adjustment suggestions of PV spatial planning in each sample country are also discussed. Finally, it is pointed out that the proactive PV spatial may be of great significance to achieve higher solar energy supply and PVCC will be an available cognition in guiding this planning in the future.
