Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010070142A2] Method for merging information of high semantic level representing complex situations composed of several objects originating from several sensors ci, said information possibly being heterogeneous, said method comprising the following steps: acquiring the various information emanating from said sensors in raw form and transforming it so as to convert it into the form of conceptual graphs, a conceptual graph representing several concepts and the relationships which exist between them, and being composed of entity nodes and of relationship nodes, with E the set of concept nodes defined on a support S, G1 and G2 two conceptual graphs defined on S, characterized in that the method determines a merging strategy denoted strategymerge as follows: strategymerge =fmerge?fcomp:E xE?E?{ E xE} where fmerge:{true, false} xE xE?E?{ E xE} is a function for merging the concept nodes of the graphs, and fcomp: E xE?{true, false}xE xE is a function for testing compatibility between two concept nodes of the graphs, and in that the method comprises a step in the course of which said merging strategy is applied to the various information taking the form of the graphs.
