An Intelligent Consultant - The Support for C2 System Operator When Fusing Ambiguous Information

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a concept of so called `intelligent consultant' - that is a tool that provides C&C system operator a support in case the gathered information (acquired from observation means) is incomplete, imprecise or even conflicted. It is the intention of the authors to focus on the methodological aspect of the problem which may be formed as: Does Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSmT) of plausible and paradoxical reasoning enable to deal with difficult target classification which normally happens in maritime C&C systems. For this reason a comparison of hard-decision fusion, DSmT fusion and a combination of DSmT and ontology fusion algorithms has been established. Some numerical experiments have been made and their results have been delivered in this paper.
