T. Li et Ik. Sethi, OPTIMAL MULTIPLE LEVEL DECISION FUSION WITH DISTRIBUTED SENSORS, IEEE transactions on aerospace and electronic systems, 29(4), 1993, pp. 1252-1259
A new data fusion model consisting of several levels of parallel decis
ion fusions is considered. Global optimization of such a model is disc
ussed to obtain the fusion rules for overall optimal performance. The
reliability analysis of the proposed model is carried out to establish
its superiority over the existing parallel and serial fusion models.
