Data fusion Is a technique used for creating an Integrated database by combining two or more databases that include a different set of variables or attributes. This paper attempts to apply data fusion technique to customer relationships management (CRM), in that we can not only plan a database structure but also collect and manage customer data In a more efficient way In particular our study Is useful when no s1n91e database Is complete, i.e., each and every subject in the pre-integrated database contains somewhat missing observations. According to the way of treating the common variables, donors can be differently selected for the substitution of the missing attributes of recipients. One way is to find the donor that has the highest correlation coefficient with the recipient by. treating common variables metrically The other is based on the closest distance by the correspondence analysis in case of treating common variables nominally. The predictability of data fusion for CRM can be evaluated by measuring the correlation of the original database and the substituted one. A Monte Carlo Simulation analysis is used to examine the stability of the two substitution methods in building an integrated database.

As current algorithms unable to perform effective fusion processing of unknown complex radar signals lacking database, and the result is unstable, this paper presents a multi-level fusion processing algorithm for complex radar signals based on evidence theory as a solution to this problem. Specifically, the real-time database is initially established, accompanied by similarity model based on parameter type, and then similarity matrix is calculated. D-S evidence theory is subsequently applied to exercise fusion processing on the similarity of parameters concerning each signal and the trust value concerning target framework of each signal in order. The signals are ultimately combined and perfected. The results of simulation experiment reveal that the proposed algorithm can exert favorable effect on the fusion of unknown complex radar signals, with higher efficiency and less time, maintaining stable processing even of considerable samples.

Fusing the scores of multibiometrics is a very promising approach to improve the overall system's accuracy and the verification performance. In recent years, there are several approaches towards studying score level fusion of several biometric systems. However, most of them does not consider the genuine and imposter score distributions and result in a higher equal error rate usually. In this paper, a novel score level fusion approach of different biometric systems (dual iris, thermal and visible face traits) based on $Acz{\acute{e}}l$-Alsina triangular norm is proposed. It achieves higher identification performance as well as acquires a closer genuine distance and larger imposter distance. The experimental tests are conducted on a virtual multibiometrics database, which merges the challenging CASIA-Iris-Thousand database with noisy samples and the NVIE face database with visible and thermal face images. The rigorous results suggest that significant performance improvement can be achieved after the implementation of multibiometrics. The comparative experiments also ascertain that the proposed fusion approach outperforms the state-of-art verification performance.

Data fusion is defined as the process of combining data and information from different sources for the effectiveness of the usage of useful information contents. In this paper, we propose a data fusion algorithm using k-means clustering method for data enrichment to improve data quality in knowledge discovery in database(KDD) process. An empirical study was conducted to compare the proposed data fusion technique with the existing techniques and shows that the newly proposed clustering data fusion technique has low MSE in continuous fusion variables.

Although researchers have proposed numerous techniques for speech emotion recognition, its performance remains unsatisfactory in many application scenarios. In this study, we propose a speech emotion recognition model based on a genetic algorithm (GA)-decision tree (DT) fusion of deep and acoustic features. To more comprehensively express speech emotional information, first, frame-level deep and acoustic features are extracted from a speech signal. Next, five kinds of statistic variables of these features are calculated to obtain utterance-level features. The Fisher feature selection criterion is employed to select high-performance features, removing redundant information. In the feature fusion stage, the GA is is used to adaptively search for the best feature fusion weight. Finally, using the fused feature, the proposed speech emotion recognition model based on a DT support vector machine model is realized. Experimental results on the Berlin speech emotion database and the Chinese emotion speech database indicate that the proposed model outperforms an average weight fusion method.

We present an image retrieval method that improves retrieval rate by using the fusion of histogram and wavelet moment features. The key idea is that images similar to a query image are selected in DB by using the wavelet moment features. Then the result images are retrieved from the selected images by using histogram method. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we use Brodatz texture database, MPEG-7 T1 database and Corel Draw photo. Experimental result shows that the proposed method is better than each of histogram method and wavelet moment method.

Fusion technology is a key to maximize innovative potential of geoscience for many challenging issues today that require integrated multi-disciplinary approach. Successful fusion technological advance can be achieved when interdisciplinary cooperation is firmly established. In order to establish firm the context of inter-disciplinarity that is still feeble, it is urgent to continuously develop geoscientific models and systematic infra for interdisciplinary cooperation such as well-prepared geo-spatial database and knowledge base network that can support multi-lateral cooperation between multiple disciplines and multi-phase international cooperation.

The performance issues of screening large database compounds and multiple query compounds in virtual screening highlight a common concern in Chemoinformatics applications. This study investigates these problems by choosing group fusion as a pilot model and presents efficient parallel solutions in parallel platforms, specifically, the multi-core architecture of CPU and many-core architecture of graphical processing unit (GPU). A study of sequential group fusion and a proposed design of parallel CUDA group fusion are presented in this paper. The design involves solving two important stages of group fusion, namely, similarity search and fusion (MAX rule), while addressing embarrassingly parallel and parallel reduction models. The sequential, optimized sequential and parallel OpenMP of group fusion were implemented and evaluated. The outcome of the analysis from these three different design approaches influenced the design of parallel CUDA version in order to optimize and achieve high computation intensity. The proposed parallel CUDA performed better than sequential and parallel OpenMP in terms of both execution time and speedup. The parallel CUDA was 5-10x faster than sequential and parallel OpenMP as both similarity search and fusion MAX stages had been CUDA-optimized.

We present a new multimodal biometric authentication method, which performs both feature-level fusion and decision-level fusion. After generating support vector machines for new features made by integrating face and voice features, the final decision for authentication is made by integrating decisions of face SVM classifier, voice SVM classifier and integrated features SVM clssifier. We justify our proposal by comparing our method with traditional one by experiments with XM2VTS multimodal database. The experiments show that our multilevel fusion algorithm gives higher recognition rate than the existing schemes.
