Research on NFE Model of Multi-Sensor Information Fusion

To study information fusion method under complex environment, a highly intelligent information fusion model is put forward- the NFE model. This model is an organic combination of neural network, fuzzy reasoning and expert system. Considering various factors which influence the performance of sensor, the NFE confidence estimator is presented from the engineering application point of view This paper presents principles, frameworks as well as key algorithms of the NFE model, and makes a comparison between the NFE model and traditional fuzzy neural network model. Simulation experiments prove that the NFE model can realize target recognition more effectively against sensor failures and strong interference, and the results are more reliable.
