Abstract
This paper seeks to complete the models that have been introduced over the last few years to quantify the uncertainty in Dempster-Shafer Theory. We ex amine Ichihashi and Maeda's model and we try to extend it with a correction factor. The factor discriminates between situations that having a clear di fference from an intuitive point of view, the Ichihashi and Maeda's measure assigns identical values to them.
