We present a local Bayesian approach which is realized via an agent based architecture. In analogy to criminalistic investigators, fusion agents elaborate the posterior Degree of Belief of initial hypotheses by local Bayesian mod- elling and local Bayesian fusion. Thereby, the usually high computational complexity of the Bayesian methodology gets reduced significantly.enText/Conference Paper1617-5468
