Information Fusion in Intelligent Systems

Abstract

Abstract:Information fusion in intelligent systems is one of the basic problems. This issue is rapidly increasing since more complex systems are being developed, e.g., robotics, vision, knowledge-based systems and data mining. The process of combining several values into a single representative one is called aggregation, and we present two applications of aggregation functions in multisensor data fusion and network aggregation in sensor networks. Special attention is devoted to the situation of pairs of aggregation functions under the semiring structure (pseudo-analysis). The author shall present two applications of it in image processing.
