Why is "sensor fusion" without "the"?

I'm writing an academic article and using a phrase "sensor fusion". Whenever I Google this phrase it is without "the", what I personally intend to use. The only explanation I found is that some common types of nouns don't take an article; such as the names of academic subjects: mathematics, biology, history, computer science. But "sensor fusion" is rather a method in an engineering instead of an academic subject.

What is the explanation for omitting "the"?

My original sentence as a reply to the reviewer: "A better implication of the sensor fusion was indicated through the paper"

(In my original language I don't use articles and it is my biggest problem in English.)
