Abstract

In sensors fusion, “Context Dependent” fusion operators represent a very powerful approach. Most often, context is related to the reliability of the sensors. This approach is efficient if the estimation of the sensors reliability is itself reliable. We show how this has been done thanks to an optimal non-linear data transformation by ANN. An application in audio-visual speech recognition will illustrate this implementation.
