In this paper, we propose a real experiment for building and realizing the physical combination of basic belief assignments associated with two independent, informative, and equireliable sources of information, according to the famous Zadeh's example. This experiment is based on a particular electronic circuit box, called Z-box, enabling to observe and to check the fusion result experimentally. Our experimental results clearly invalidate the fusion result obtained by Dempster-Shafer's rule of combination and show that it is physically possible to consider in a natural fusion process two independent and equi-reliable sources of evidences at same time, even if they appear as highly conflicting in Shafer's sense.

This paper challenges the familiar hierarchical partitioning of data fusion problems into "levels". The JDL data fusion model and its variants are seen as a method to partition a problem space in a way that tends to support different types of solutions. The layered view of fusion presented in these models is a rough engineering-based representation of a domain that has been addressed in analytically- and empirically-based models developed over centuries by philosophers and cognitive scientists. These ontological and cognitive models involve distinctions that are not all necessarily hierarchical or sequential. A hierarchical partitioning - while often convenient in characterizing fusion problems - should not be an impediment to fusion solutions that span the levels. A more flexible and comprehensive partitioning scheme is suggested.
