Information Fusion for Port Security Decision Support

摘要

Ports are examples of complicated infrastructure that today face a wide variety of threats. In order to ensure the security of our ports, many different kinds of sensors are needed. Port security systems must also include appropriate information fusion and information exchange systems, and advanced decision support systems that helps the human operators to achieve situation awareness, i.e., the understanding of current and near-future events and their impacts. Having access to such systems will enable early detection of incidents, thus increasing the time available for proactive interventions to prevent the discovered threats.
