Glenn Shafer is a prominent statistician and researcher known for his contributions to probability theory, statistics, and decision theory. He is particularly well-known for his work in developing and promoting the theory of Dempster-Shafer evidence theory, which is a framework for dealing with uncertainty and reasoning based on evidence. Dempster-Shafer theory generalizes Bayesian probability and provides a way to combine evidence from different sources and make decisions under uncertainty.
