Abstract
Multi-modal sensor data fusion takes advantage of complementary or reinforcing information from each sensor and can boost overall performance in applications such as scene classification and target detection. This paper presents a new method for fusing multi-modal and multi-resolution remote sensor data without requiring pixel-level training labels, which can be difficult to obtain. Previously, we developed a Multiple Instance Multi-Resolution Fusion (MIMRF) framework that addresses label uncertainty for fusion, but it can be slow to train due to the large search space for the fuzzy measures used to integrate sensor data sources. We propose a new method based on binary fuzzy measures, which reduces the search space and significantly improves the efficiency of the MIMRF framework. We present experimental results on synthetic data and a real-world remote sensing detection task and show that the proposed MIMRF-BFM algorithm can effectively and efficiently perform multi-resolution fusion given remote sensing data with uncertainty.
