Multisensor Data Fusion in Testability Evaluation of Equipment

Multisensor Data Fusion

Multisensor Data Fusion

IMultisensor data fusion refers to the acquisition, processing and synergistic combination of information gathered by various knowledge sources and sensors to provide a better understanding of a phenomenon. It is a fascinating and rapidly evolving field that has generated a lot of excitement in the research and development community. These concepts are being applied to a wide variety of fields ...

Fusion of Heterogeneous Multisensor Data

One of the main future tasks in the field of reconnaissance and surveillance is the data fusion of heterogeneous systems. For this purpose, sensor data of airborne and spaceborne systems, which acquire the data from the same scene with different spatial and spectral coverage, are used. The employment of different sensors offers the opportunity to take benefit of the specific sensor characterist...

Approaches to Multisensor Data Fusion

s part of an Office of Naval Research–funded science and technology development task, APL is developing an identification (ID) sensor data fusion testbed. The testbed is driven by an APL-modified version of the Joint Composite Tracking Network pilot benchmark called the Composite Combat ID Analysis Testbed (CAT). The CAT provides accurate tracking for realistic scenarios involving multiple targ...

Unsupervised multisensor data fusion approach

A new iterative approach of multisensor data fusion based on the Dempster-Shafer formalism is presented. Mass functions, formalized by a Gaussian model, are estimated at each iteration using the output fused image and the source images. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated on synthetic images.
