9 Workshop Sensor Data Fusion: Trends, Solutions, and Applications Bonn, October 8

Bonn, October 8th – 10th, 2014
9th Workshop Sensor Data Fusion: Trends, Solutions, and
Applications
Technical Program
Prior to its technological realization or the scientific reflection on it, sensor data fusion is an omnipresent
capability. The result is a mental model of their individual environment, the basis of behaving appropriately.
SDF Workshop 2014, the 9th in a row of annual workshops, addresses numerous application aspects of
sensor data fusion, as well as methodology oriented topics. Its 20 presentations are grouped into 7 sessions.
Particular emphasis is placed on advances in the theory of estimation and tracking, emitter localization,
ground surveillance, resource management, and selected aspects of higher–level fusion. The contributions
from industry, academia, and research institutions let us expect an exchange of ideas, lively discussions,
and mutual cross–fertilization. For more detailed information see: www.fkie.fraunhofer.de/sdf2014.
