A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from a respective plurality of sensor devices, a plurality of sensor belief datasets regarding attributes of an object;
- fusing the plurality of sensor belief datasets by applying covariance intersection;
- determining object attribute belief based on the fusing;
- and
- outputting information regarding the object attribute belief.
A computing system, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory system comprising one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by at least one of the one or more processors, cause the computing system to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- receiving, from a respective plurality of sensor devices, a plurality of sensor belief datasets regarding attributes of an object;
- fusing the plurality of sensor belief datasets by applying covariance intersection;
- determining object attribute belief based on the fusing;
- and
- outputting information regarding the object attribute belief.
