Distributed Fusion with Copula

Abstract

The research objective of this STIR effort is to address the fundamental problems of distributed fusion in networks with dynamic topology and heterogeneous sensor characteristics. Emerging information acquisition systems such as cloud robotics require fusion applications for ad hoc and often decentralized collaborations among fusion processes and heterogeneous data sources. Those dynamic environments encompass conditions that are inconsistent with existing data fusion algorithm assumptions.
