However, the efficiency obtained is far from optimal results. This paper presents a novel approach based on the integration of multiple correlation methods by using the neural network Growing Neural Gas (GNG). Moreover, since correlation systems have different detection capabilities, we have modified the learning algorithm to positively weight the best performing systems. The results show the validity of the proposal, both the multiple integration approach using GNG neural network and the weighting based on efficiency. rv:
