Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
The multimodal information can be assimilated at three levels 1) early
fusion, 2) intermediate fusion, and 3) late fusion. Early fusion can be performed at the
sensor or signal level. Intermediate fusion can be at the feature level, and late fusion
may be done at the decision level. Apart from that, some more fusion techniques are
rank-based, adaptive, etc. This chapter provides an extensive review of studies based
on fusion and reported noticeable work herewith. Eventually, we discussed the
challenges associated with multimodal fusion.
