Abstract
In particular embodiments, fusing multi-sensor data sets includes receiving a first sensor data set and a second sensor data set generated in response to sensing a structure. The sensor data sets describe structural features of the structure. First delta vector sets are generated for the first sensor data set, and second delta vector sets are generated for the second sensor data set. Each delta vector set comprises delta vectors indicating relative geometrical relationships between a structural feature and other structural features. Association scores are determined for delta pairs comprising a first delta vector set and a second delta vector set. Same feature delta pairs are identified according to the association scores. A same feature delta vector set comprises a delta pair corresponding to the same structural feature.
