Information-theoretic approach to management in decentralized data fusion
In this paper we present an information based framework for addressing multi-sensor data fusion and its management. The basis for this approach is the notion of Bayesian Information Update from which ...

Distributed-sensor-system decision analysis using team strategies
A distributed (or decentralized) multiple sensor system is considered under binary hypothesis environments. The system is deployed with a host sensor (HS) and multiple slave sensors (SSs). All sensors...

Toward task-directed planning of cooperating sensors

Recently, there has been increased emphasis on employing reactive actions in robot task planning. The principle reasons for this change are to increase the robustness of robot action by making them sensor controlled, and to accommodate dynamic, unpredictable environments. However, in many cases, supporting reactive mechanisms requires choosing sensor inputs for the reactive procedure. This paper addresses the issue of planning the sensor required to carry out a reactive robot program. A preliminary framework for planning is presented, and sensor planning is illustrated for the problem of replacing a mechanically attached plug in a space environment.
