Burst and random errors, message delays, user mobility, and link outages are significant factors that influence data fusion performance. These factors become even more significant in future mobile ad hoc networking environments. To date, however, those factors are not sufficiently addressed by formulations used for modeling and predicting data fusion performance. A stochastic-based fusion formulation that incorporates the effects of non-deterministic behaviors and stochastic communications characteristics is developed and proposed as a method for predicting estimation capabilities. The resulting stochastic fusion equations enable decentralized estimation capabilities to be evaluated in communication networks having non-idealized channel characteristics and ad hoc connectivity. The method is implemented in a simulation model for decentralized estimation in networks with time-varying ad hoc connectivity. The simulation results demonstrate the ability to closely predict expected fusion performance while greatly reducing model complexity and simulation time relative to current techniques. Those findings demonstrate the efficacy of a stochastic fusion formulation for prediction, and extending the approach to a wider range of data fusion domains and techniques is recommended","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126982615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Particle filters have a great potential for solving highly nonlinear and non-Gaussian estimation problems, in which the traditional Kalman filter (KF) and extended Kalman filter (EKF) generally fail. How ever, in a sensor network, the implementation of distributed particle filters requires huge communications between local sensor nodes and the fusion center. To make the DPF approach feasible for real time processing and to reduce communication requirements, we approximate a posteriori distribution obtained from the local particle filters by a Gaussian mixture model (GMM). We propose a modified EM algorithm to estimate the parameters of GMMs obtained locally. These parameters are transmitted to the fusion center where the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE) is used for fusion. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126529130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many different images of the same painting are taken, in different parts of the light spectrum; these different images have to be fused together, to get an augmented image showing much more details and information which are only visible in some sub-parts of the spectrum singularly. In this paper, we pose the attention over the compulsory step accomplished just before the \"fusion\" of such images, i.e. the registration step; in particular, we present an automatic registration technique, based on the computation of mutual information. By means of the registration, it is possible to exactly align the different images, which is the preliminary step to obtain a useful and correct augmented image. These techniques can be also applied to other areas, and in particular to remote sensing images","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"1 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121016007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Validation gates are used in target tracking to cull very unlikely measurement-to-track associations, before remaining association ambiguities are handled by a more comprehensive (and expensive) data association scheme. The essential property of a gate is to accept a high percentage of correct associations, thus maximising track accuracy, but provide a sufficiently tight bound to minimise the number of ambiguous associations. For linear Gaussian systems, the ellipsoidal validation gate is standard, and possesses the statistical property whereby a given threshold will accept a certain percentage of true associations. This property does not hold for non-linear non-Gaussian models. As a system departs from linear-Gaussian, the ellipsoid gate tends to reject a higher than expected proportion of correct associations and permit an excess of false ones. In this paper, the concept of the ellipsoidal gate is extended to permit correct statistics for the non-linear non-Gaussian case. The new gate is demonstrated by a bearing-only tracking example","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"2016 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127354720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Significant work has recently been carried out comparing methods of fused image assessment, with findings strongly suggesting that a task-centred approach would be beneficial to the assessment process. The current paper reports a pilot study analysing eye movements of participants involved in four tasks. The first and second tasks involved tracking a human figure wearing camouflage clothing walking through thick undergrowth at light and dark luminance levels, whilst the third and fourth task required tracking an individual in a crowd, again at two luminance levels. Participants were shown the original visible and IR images individually, pixel-averaged, contrast pyramid, and dual-tree complex wavelet fused video sequences. They viewed each display and sequence three times to compare inter-subject scanpath variability. This paper describes the initial analysis of the eye-tracking data gathered from the pilot study.

The mission performed by the operator is the surveillance of a coast area and the selection of a system action against possible threat targets, in order to check their identity.

Higher levels of the DFIG model call for prediction of future development and awareness of the development of a situation. It is known that Bayesian network is an insightful approach to determine optimal strategies against asymmetric adversarial opponent. However, it lacks the essential adversarial decision processes perspective. In this paper, a highly innovative data-fusion framework for asymmetric-threat detection and prediction based on advanced knowledge infrastructure and stochastic (Markov) game theory is proposed. In particular, asymmetric and adaptive threats are detected and grouped by intelligent agent and hierarchical entity aggregation in level 2 and their intents are predicted by a decentralized Markov (stochastic) game model with deception in level 3.
