Described is a signal processing system. The system comprises a signal processing module having signal processing parameters and being configured to receive a plurality of signals. The signal processing module uses the signal processing parameters to output a processed signal, as either a fused signal or a plurality of separate signals. A classification module is included to recognize information encoded in the processed signal to classify the information encoded in the process signal, with the classification having a confidence level. An optimization module is configured, in a feedback loop, to utilize the information encoded in the processed signal to adjust the signal processing parameters to optimize the confidence level of the classification, thereby optimizing an output of the signal processing module.
