Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods of sensor fusion for exemplary use with robotic navigation control. Systems and methods include providing local estimates of a target location from a plurality of expert modules that process sensor data. The local estimates are weighted based upon a Mahalanobis distance from an expected estimated value and based upon a Euclidean distance between the local estimates. The local estimates are fused in a Bayesian fusion center based upon the weight given to each of the local estimates.
