  • Abstract
    In all applications, intelligence analysts and decision makers have available to them much more data and information than can be processed, understood and disseminated. This ever increasing data load for analysts has resulted in less rigorous analysis of these data. Information fusion capabilities have the ability to aid analysts not only perform their jobs efficiently and effectively, they can also be used to increase the amount of analytical rigor incorporated into the analysis process.
