Special Session on Intelligent Information Fusion at FUSION 2013

http://www.fusion2013.org//

Istambul (Turkey), 9-12th July, 2013

SCOPE
Research on Intelligent Systems for information fusion has matured during the last years and many effective applications of this technology are now deployed. The problem of Information Fusion has attracted significant attention in the artificial intelligence community, trying to innovate in the techniques used for combining the data and to provide new models for estimations and predictions. The growing advances of Information Fusion as rapid advances in sensor technology that provide context-information has led to new applications in different environments such as remote sensing, surveillance, home care, etc. With the continuing expansion of the domain of interest and the increasing complexity of the collected information, intelligent techniques for fusion processing have become a crucial component in information fusion applications. In this sense, Intelligent systems can improve high level information fusion aimed at supporting decision making, or intelligent information management This special session provides an international forum to present and discuss the latest scientific developments and their effective applications, to assess the impact of the approach, and to facilitate technology transfer. This special session provides a framework to present, to discuss, and to disseminate the latest developments and the most important outcomes related to intelligent information fusion.
