Exploitation of Landsat imagery and ancillary data for battlespace characterizationProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 994-998 vol.2
S.M. Orloff, Su May Hsu, H.-H.K. Burke
Spectral data provide opportunities to discriminate targets from background clutter and to detect partially concealed objects. However, data with high spatial resolution generally are not synoptic scale (hundreds of kilometers). By analyzing courser resolution synoptic imagery, high-resolution sensors can then be cued to areas of potential targets. Multispectral images (Landsat 7) are combined wit...... hiện toàn bộ

As an attempt to solve some contemporary web information retrieval problems, a construction of a cooperative multiagent system is proposed. This. paper introduces the system and presents the use of a, unique aggregation and fusion technique that is employed to attain reliable delivery performance. The intelligent methodology to fuse agents' decisions, the team consensus approach, models the intera...... hiện toàn bộ

Fault-tolerant interval estimation fusion by Dempster-Shafer theoryProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1605-1612 vol.2
Baohua Li, Yunmin Zhu, X. Rong Li
Fault tolerance is an important issue in network design because sensor networks must work in a dynamic, uncertain situation. In this paper, using Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence, we propose several new fault-tolerant interval integration functions, which give interval estimate fusion outputs and the corresponding belief levels, depending on prior information and practical requirements. Not only...... hiện toàn bộ

Distributed reinforcement learning for sequential decision makingProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1263-1268 vol.2
G. Rogova, P. Scott, C. Lolett
The paper addresses a problem of reinforcement learning in a homogeneous non-communicating multi-agent system for sequential decision making. We introduce a particular reinforcement learning model composed of evidential reinforcement neural networks representing agents, a fusion center, and a decision maker. The fusion center combines beliefs in each hypothesis under consideration generated by the...... hiện toàn bộ

An interacting automata model for network protectionProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1090-1097 vol.2
R. Brooks, N. Orr, J. Zachary, C. Griffin
Malicious network activity is rapidly increasing. To understand and engineer countermeasures to network attacks, we have developed cellular automata models of network flow dynamics and associated attacks. We describe the theoretical development of our model and compare it to existing models of network flow based on statistical physics. Using our model, we have found empirical evidence that a link ...... hiện toàn bộ

Spiral bevel gear damage detection using decision fusion analysisProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 1 - Trang 94-100 vol.1
P.J. Dempsey, R.F. Handschuh, A.A. Afjeh
A diagnostic tool for detecting damage to spiral bevel gears was developed. Two different monitoring technologies, oil debris analysis and vibration, were integrated using data fusion into a health monitoring system for detecting surface fatigue pitting damage on gears. This integrated system showed improved detection and decision-making capabilities as compared to using individual monitoring tech...... hiện toàn bộ

Littoral tracking using particle filterProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 935-942 vol.2
M. Mallick, S. Maskell, T. Kirubarajan, N. Gordon
Littoral tracking refers to the tracking of targets on land and in sea near the boundary of the two regions. A ground-moving target continues to move on land and can not enter the sea. Similarly, a sea-moving target moves in the sea and the land serves as an infeasible region. Enforcing infeasible regions or hard constraints in the framework of the Kalman filter or interacting multiple model (IMM)...... hiện toàn bộ

For many applications it is desirable to construct expert systems to be used as decision aids. It is often essential that the algorithm make decisions at least at the quality level of the best human experts according to some measure. The algorithm should not only incorporate human expertise and its related uncertainty, but also be able to exploit an opponent's uncertainty. In many instances, due t...... hiện toàn bộ
