22nd International Conference

on Information Fusion Ottawa, Canada, July 2-5, 2019

1

Welcome to Fusion2019 in Ottawa

The International Conference on Information Fusion provides the best forum to present foundational, technological, and

application-focused innovations in the sensor, data, information and knowledge fusion scientific domains. For more than two decades, this distinctive conference has brought together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government agencies working in these domains with application to surveillance, aerospace, robotics, intelligent

transportation, sensor networks and biomedical engineering, among others. The 2019 conference is focused on advancing the employment of multidisciplinary and innovative methods for solving the most challenging problems in the field, inclusive of methods that could be called disruptive to the traditional concepts in data and information fusion. Fusion2019

conference takes place in the Shaw Centre, walking distance to Ottawa City Centre.

Ottawa is Canada’s capital, sitting on the Ottawa River. It has at its centre Parliament Hill, with grand Victorian architecture and

museums such as the National Gallery of Canada, with noted collections of indigenous and other Canadian art as well as the Canadian

Museum of History with its spectacular Grand Hall and River Salon that houses the world’s largest indoor collection of totem poles.

The conference takes place July 2 – 5, 2019, starting the day after Canada Day on July 1.

Participants arriving on July 1 (the day before the conference) have an opportunity to see the legendary Canada Day pyromusical fireworks

and be part of other festivities.

The conference program includes a welcome reception held in the Shaw Centre and a Banquet held in the Canadian Museum of History Grand Hall and River Salon, open for the participants to browse before dinner.

ISIF: The International Society of Information Fusion (ISIF - http://isif.org/) is the premier global information resource

for multidisciplinary approaches for theoretical and applied information fusion technologies.

IEEE Ottawa Section (https://www.ieeeottawa.ca/) : The IEEE Eastern Canada Council (ECC) is one of three that

make up IEEE Canada (Region 7 of IEEE). The Ottawa Section is the second oldest ECC member, after Montreal, being founded in 1944. Being at the heart of Canada’s Silicon Valley, Ottawa hosts about 50% of the Council membership, thus

making it the largest of the seven.
