Prerequisites for enrollment

10.

Subject goals and competencies:


In this course students will be introduced to the data fusion in terms of information, sensor and multisensory fusion. They will be able to use the methods, techniques and algorithms for data fusion. They will know how to apply different architectures and patterns for data fusion. The different types of data that would be obtained through fusion of sources will need to be modeled according to needs. To this end, students will need to be capable of modeling and representing unstructured data, methods and strategies for extracting information from unstructured data, as well as the techniques for presenting the knowledge extracted from the data.

Subject content:


1. Definition and bases of data fusion, information fusion, sensor/multisensory fusion. Classification according to the relation of sources, according to the level of abstraction and according to the relation-exit. 2. Methods, Techs and Data Fusion algorithms. Decision -making techniques. Assessment techniques. Maps of features. Sensor abstractions. Compression. Access from information theory. 3. Architectures, models and their features. Information based model. Models based on activities. Role -based models. 4. Information fusion paradigms in the context of communication. Distributed paradigms. Information fusion and its divisions. 5. Modeling unstructured data. Overview and comparison of existing data models and algorithms for efficient storage, search, transmission and display of data. Design of relevant abstract types of data and their integration into existing modeling languages. Methods for quantifying the quality of data models. 6. Extracting relevant information from unstructured data. Lexicones and ontologies for presenting mallerazian knowledge. Integrating ontologies.
