Abstract

The application of a rapid method based on Shafer's theory of evidence and Narasimhan's computation procedure is illustrated in the testing of changes in the steady state of electrochemical processes. Specific examples comparing numerical results to those of conventional multivariate statistics demonstrate the attractiveness of the approach.
