Evidence theory is widely used in decision-level information fusion.However
there are also some problems to be solved.For instance
how to measure the conflict between two bodies of evidence is still an open issue.Thus
a new method with good behaviors to measure conflict is proposed.Different bodies of evidence are described as a BPA matrix whose properties are studied afterwards.Considering the properties of singular values of such a BPA matrix
the smaller one is chosen to measure the conflict.The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by some examples.
