This year, IEEE WIE Ottawa got a chance to volunteer and walk through the international conference on information Fusion which was held in Shaw Center from 2nd July to 5th July. This conference, in a literal sense, creates a Fusion between academia and industry.

It brings together people from different domains of technology for these three days to discuss and share knowledge on foundational, technological, and application-focused innovations in the sensor, data, information and knowledge fusion scientific domains. The conference focused on advancing the employment of multidisciplinary and innovative methods for solving the challenges in data and information Fusion.

The IEEE WIE Ottawa team was actively volunteering in the event. The event had some special sessions on interesting topics. Some examples to mention are-assessing the impact of AI and machine learning technologies, information fusion in multi-biometrics and forensics, multisensor data fusion algorithm for industry and the list continues.
