Multi-Sensor Fusion

Fundamentals and Applications With Software

by R. R. Brooks, S. S. Iyengar

Published 1997488 pagesISBN 978-0-1390-1653-0

Increasingly, applications require computers to interface with the real world and draw data directly from it. These applications range from defense to medicine, manufacturing to environmental health. They all depend on inputs that are noisy, incomplete, and of limited accuracy. This book introduces multi-sensor fusion, which has emerged as the method of choice for implementing robust systems that can handle imperfect inputs. It represents the first broad, practical text on the subject - covering all the technologies and methods associated with multi-sensor fusion, including multidimensional data structures; techniques for reasoning with uncertainty; approaches to enhancing system dependability; and working with meta-heuristics.

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Nonfiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

Best when you want to settle into a longer reading experience.

Begin with its place in Nonfiction, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. Whose perspective organizes the story, and whose perspective remains outside it?
  2. Which sources or lived experiences carry the author’s central argument?
  3. How does the book change the way you understand its larger subject?
