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

Information fusion in a cooperative multi-agent system for web information retrievalProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1256-1262 vol.2
K.B. Shaban, O.A. Basir, K. Hassanein, M. Kamel
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

Scalable data fusion using AstrolabeProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1434-1441 vol.2
K.P. Birman, R. van Renesse, W. Vogels
The dramatic growth of computer networks creates both an opportunity and a
daunting distributed computing problem for users seeking to perform data fusion
and data mining. The problem is that data often resides on large numbers of
devices and evolves rapidly. Systems that collect data at a single location
scale poorly and suffer from single-point-failures. Astrolabe performs data
fusion in real-ti... hiện toàn bộ

A simple model for reliable query reporting in sensor networksProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1070-1075 vol.2 - 2002
R. Kannan, S. Sarangi, S.S. Iyengar
We consider the problem of inducing the formation of reliable energy-constrained
communication paths in distributed sensor networks. We label this problem of
reliable information routing from reporting sensors to query nodes as reliable
query reporting (RQR) and analyze it using game-theoretic techniques to model
the behavior of individual sensor nodes. Sensors behave strategically wherein
they ta... 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

Comparison of plot and track fusion for naval sensor integrationProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 2 - Trang 1361-1366 vol.2
S.J. Symons, J.A.H. Miles, J.R. Moon
This paper compares plot and track fusion or a generic suite of sensors that
might be available on a future warship, with an emphasis on their relative
ability to maintain track continuity in the event of missed measurements/plots.
Using plot fusion measurement level data are formed into tracks at a central
location, whereas with track fusion state estimate (i.e. track) level data are
combined fro... hiện toàn bộ

A d-step fixed-lag smoothing algorithm for Markovian switching systemsProceedings of the Fifth International Conference on Information Fusion. FUSION 2002. (IEEE Cat.No.02EX5997) - Tập 1 - Trang 721-726 vol.1
Quan Pan, Y.G. Jia, H.C. Zhang
A suboptimal approach to the d(d /spl ges/ 0) step fixed-lag smoothing problem
for Markovian switching systems is presented. Multiple Model Estimation
techniques have been widely used in solving state estimation problems of these
systems. We demonstrated that the mode probability of each fixed-lag smoother at
time k-d (data up to time k), thus it is possible to use Markov transition
probability an... hiện toàn bộ

This paper presents an efficient method for extracting a multi-model
interpolation function from a nonlinear system. The multi-model interpolation
function consists of couple simplified time-varying models in neural-network
structure to dynamically approximate the nature of the physical phenomena to be
interpolated and extrapolated. The purpose of using the multi-model
interpolation function is to... hiện toàn bộ
