In this paper, a novel multi-sensor clustering algorithm, based on the density peaks clustering (DPC) algorithm, is proposed to address the multi-sensor data fusion (MSDF) problem. The MSDF problem is raised in the multi-sensor target detection (MSTD) context and corresponds to clustering observations of multiple sensors, without prior information on clutter. During the clustering process, the data points from the same sensor cannot be grouped into the same cluster, which is called the cannot link (CL) constraint; the size of each cluster should be within a certain range; and overlapping clusters (if any) must be divided into multiple clusters to satisfy the CL constraint. The simulation results confirm the validity and reliability of the proposed algorithm.
