Abstract:
1. A method for merging information of high semantic level representing complex situations comprising several items of information or data originating from several sensors, said method being executed on a processor and comprising: acquiring the several items of information or data arising from at least two sensors in raw form and transforming the several items of information or data using said processor to cast the several items of information or data into a form of conceptual graphs, a conceptual graph representing several concepts and relations which exist between the several concepts, a conceptual graph comprising several entity nodes and relation nodes, with a set of concept nodes E defined on a support S, two conceptual graphs G defining a knowledge base containing information or data specific to a sector of an application of data merging and rules applied in said sector of the application, and transforming said information or data specific to the sector of the application using the processor to present said information or data specific to the sector of the application in a form of conceptual graphs; determining a merging strategy denoted strategy applying the merging strategy to the information or data arising from the knowledge base and from an observation base taking the form of graphs to produce merged data; and sending the merged data to a decision making system, wherein:
