About this Item

Information fusion is the process of gathering, filtering, correlating and integrating relevant information from various sources into one representational format. It is used by signal processing engineers and information operations specialists to help them make decisions involving tasks like sensor management, tracking, and system control. This comprehensive resource provides practitioners with an in-depth understanding of finite-set statistics (FISST) - a recently developed method that has been gaining much attention among professionals because it unifies information fusion, utilizing statistics that most engineers learn as undergraduates. The book helps professionals use FISST to create efficient information fusion systems that can be implemented to address real-world challenges in the field.
