Description: Using the Theory of Belief Functions for evidence
        calculus. Basic probability assignments, or mass functions, can
        be defined on the subsets of a set of possible values and
        combined. A mass function can be extended to a larger frame.
        Marginalization, i.e. reduction to a smaller frame can also be
        done. These features can be combined to analyze small belief
        networks and take into account situations where information
        cannot be satisfactorily described by probability
        distributions.
