A Generic Pixel Distribution Architecture for Parallel Video Processing

Karim Mohamed Abedallah Ali, Rabie Ben Atitallah, Said Hanafi, Jean-Luc Dekeyser

data distribution for neighbourhood operations processed in parallel computing dominates the multimedia video processing domain. Hardware designers are confronted with the challenge of architecture obsolescence due to the lack of flexibility to adapt the I/O system while upgrading the parallelism…

Facial age estimation using BSIF and LBP

Salah Eddine Bekhouche, Abdelkrim Ouafi, Abdelmalik Taleb-Ahmed, Abdenour Hadid, Azeddine Benlamoudi

Human face aging is irreversible process causing changes in human face characteristics such us hair whitening, muscles drop and wrinkles. Due to the importance of human face aging in biometrics systems, age estimation became an attractive area for researchers. This paper presents a novel method to…

Hybrid Flow Shop Scheduling with Availability Constraints

Hamid Allaoui, Abdelhakim Artiba

The success of a product depends on the costs incurred through its entire processing. Indeed, an efficient schedule can significantly reduce the total costs. Most of the literature on scheduling assumes that machines are always available. However, due to maintenance activities machines cannot…

Self‐triggered control for multi‐agent systems with unknown non‐linear inherent dynamics

Michael Defoort, Stefano Di Gennaro, Mohamed Djemai

This study focuses on the design of self-triggered controls for first-order multi-agent systems with unknown inherent non-linear dynamics. First, conditions that guarantee the existence of a self-triggered control are provided to solve the consensus problem under fixed communication topologies if…

A two phase variable neighborhood search for the multi-product inventory routing problem

Anis Mjirda, Bassem Jarboui, Rita Macedo, Said Hanafi, Nenad Mladenovic

We address a multi-product inventory routing problem and propose a two-phase Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) metaheuristic to solve it. In the first phase, VNS is used to solve a capacitated vehicle routing problem at each period to find an initial solution without taking into account the…

Collaborative Sensing for Urban Transportation

Sergio Ilarri, Ouri Wolfson, Thierry Delot

In this paper, we overview the current status of research in the field of collaborative sensing for urban transportation. We first classify the different types of sensors that can be relevant in collaborative urban sensing and then we analyze three different topics: parking spaces, traffic, and…
