Abstract

We introduce a robust approach to diagnostic information fusion within a network of probabilistic models distributed throughout a system of agents. In particular, the approach combines results from local fusion processes in a consis tent manner and it is applicable in a significant class of fusion problems. It supports sequential fusion of large amounts of heterogeneous information without centralized fusion control in distributed models which can frequently change at runtime.
