Multi-sensor Cognitive-based Approach to Critical Infrastructure Protection

This paper proposes an innovative situation awareness and assessment-based approach for the monitoring of critical infrastructures. In particular, based on recent studies on artificial cognitive systems, the paper explores the concepts for designing interactive, adaptable, and intelligent multi-sensor surveillance systems able to react to situations in a preventive and manageable way. In order to reach this objective, it is emphasized that innovative strategies could be based on the integration of heterogeneous sensing devices, such as distributed cognitive radio sensors for communication and monitoring and a network of smart cameras for the interpretation of interactions and events.
