Abstract

A mechanism for the self-organized integration of different adaptive cues is proposed. In Democratic Integration the cues agree on a result and each cue adapts towards the result agreed upon. A technical formulation of this scheme is employed in a face tracking system. The self-organized adaptivity leads to suppression and recalibration of discordant cues. Experiments show that the system is robust to sudden changes in the environment as long as the changes disrupt only a minority of cues at the same time, although all cues may be affected in the long run.
