1. A method of fusing the outputs of multiple sensors, the method comprising:
- inputting to a fusion engine the output of each sensor including a sensor class probability vector based on each sensor'"'"'s classification database; and
estimating a base class probability vector based on the sensor class probabilities output by the sensors and a mapping function.

Abstract
A method and system for of fusing the outputs of multiple sensors. The output of each sensor including a sensor class probability vector based on each sensor'"'"'s classification database is input to a fusion engine which estimates a base class probability vector based on the sensor class probabilities output by the sensors and a preconfigured base database including base classes.
