This document describes Kurtosis based pruning for sensor-fusion systems. Kurtosis based pruning minimizes a total quantity of comparisons performed when fusing together large sets of data. Multiple candidate radar tracks may possibly align with one of multiple candidate visual tracks. For each candidate vision track, a weight or other evidence of matching is assigned to each candidate radar track. An inverse of matching errors between each candidate vision and each candidate radar track contributes to this evidence, which may be normalized to produce, for each candidate vision track, a distribution associated with all candidate radar tracks. A Kurtosis or shape of this distribution is calculated. Based on the Kurtosis values, some candidate radar tracks are selected for matching and other remaining candidate radar tracks are pruned. The Kurtosis aids in determining how many candidates to retain and how many to prune. In this way, Kurtosis based pruning can prevent combinatorial explosions due to large-scale matching.
