在过去的一年里，引力波和高能中微子源的第一个电磁对应物的发现将我们带到了“多信使”天体物理学（MMA）的新时代。这些新的事件为天体物理学提供了深刻的见解，同时也导致了天文数据融合技术的发展。每个信使都携带着来自不同观测过程的信息，因此融合所有信使可以提供对天体属性的最佳理解，并揭示各种天体物理现象。几十年来，为了充分利用多波段天文数据，先进的统一平台和数据融合技术得到了发展，并成为天文学界感兴趣的研究课题。本文系统地综述了当前流行的、最新的不同格式天文数据融合方法和平台，旨在全面介绍该领域的研究进展，同时对未来多信使数据融合的研究提出了展望，希望能为MMA时代的研究者提供新的思路。
Over the past year, the discovery of the first electromagnetic counterparts to sources of gravitational waves and high-energy neutrinos has brought us to the new era of ”multi-messenger” astrophysics (MMA). These new events provide deep insights into astrophysics, meanwhile, lead to the development of astronomical data fusion techniques. Each messenger carries information from different observation process and fusing all messengers can therefore provide the best understanding of the celestial objects’ attributes and expose various astrophysical phenomena. Over the decades, for the full exploitation of multi-band astronomical data, advanced unified platforms and data fusion techniques have been developed and become a research topic of interest for the astronomical community. In this paper, we present a systematic review of the popular and state-of-the-art fusion methods and platforms in different formats of astronomical data, aiming to give a comprehensive introduction to the current progress in this field; at the same time, we put forward insightful prospects for future study of multi-messenger data fusion, hoping to provide new thoughts for researchers in MMA era.
