  • Patent number: 7152033
    Abstract: A method for multi-modal data fusion (100), a multi-modal system data fusion system (10) and module (24) that in use operates by receiving segments (125) of multi-modal data associated respectively with a modalitiy. Initiating (130) a dynamically variable wait period after one of the segments is received is then performed. The dynamically variable wait period has a duration determined from data fusion timing statistics of the system (10). A waiting (140) for reception of any further segments during the dynamically variable wait period is then effected and thereafter a fusing (145) of the segments received provides fused data that is sent (160) to a dialog manager (25).
