Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization for Multi-Sensor Data Fusion

A hybrid particle swarm optimization (PSO), able to overcome the large-scale nonlinearity or heavily correlation in the data fusion model of multiple sensing information, is proposed in this paper. In recent smart convergence technology, multiple similar and/or dissimilar sensors are widely used to support precisely sensing information from different perspectives, and these are integrated with data fusion algorithms to get synergistic effects. However, the construction of the data fusion model is not trivial because of difficulties to meet under the restricted conditions of a multi-sensor system such as its limited options for deploying sensors and nonlinear characteristics, or correlation errors of multiple sensors. This paper presents a hybrid PSO to facilitate the construction of robust data fusion model based on neural network while ensuring the balance between exploration and exploitation. The performance of the proposed model was evaluated by benchmarks composed of representative datasets. The well-optimized data fusion model is expected to provide an enhancement in the synergistic accuracy.
