1. A long short-term memory (LSTM) cell for sensor fusion, comprising:
a first architecture receiving a first sensor encoding, a first shared cell state, and a first shared hidden state and generating a first set of outputs based on the first sensor encoding, the first shared cell state, and the first shared hidden state;
a second architecture receiving a second sensor encoding, the first shared cell state, and the first shared hidden state and generating a second set of outputs based on the second sensor encoding, the first shared cell state, and the first shared hidden state;
a hidden state gate generating a second shared hidden state based on the first set of outputs and the second set of outputs; and
a cell state gate generating a second shared cell state based on the first set of outputs and the second set of outputs.
