A fusion method, implemented by one or more processors, for classifying a target having class types. The method includes: obtaining evidence from one or more classifiers, the evidence represented by scores from the one or more classifiers; representing the obtained evidence in a Bayesian context, where the Bayesian beliefs are obtained from the scores; obtaining new evidence, the new evidence represented by new scores from the classifiers; representing the obtained new evidence in an enhanced Bayesian context, where the enhanced Bayesian beliefs are obtained from the new scores; combining the scores and the new scores over multiple times; combining the evidence and the new evidence over multiple times; and using the combined scores and the combined evidence for each of the plurality of class types to classify the target.
