Special Note

We are deeply saddened by the loss of our dear friend Bob Lynch. He will be truly missed and we will include him in our daily prayers. Please also read the Obituary.

When will MFI be held?

19 - 21 September 2016, Monday to Wednesday

First day (Sept. 19) will be tutorials. Second and third day (Sept. 20 & 21) is the regular conference. Welcome reception is in the evening of the first day, Sept. 19. Banquet is on the evening of the second day, Sept. 20.

Location

Baden-Baden is a very nice location for MFI 2016 (MFI 2001 was already held there).

Topics:

Theme:

Taking Multi-Sensor Fusion to the Next Level: From Theory to Applications

Theory:

Probability theory, Bayesian inference, nonlinear estimation, Dempster-Shafer, fuzzy sets, logic, machine learning, neural networks, distributed architectures

Sensors:
