Between the Megalopolis and the Deep Blue Sky: Challenges of Transport with UAVs in Future Smart Cities
2019
International audience; With the rapid increase of the world's urban population, the infrastructure of the constantly expanding metropolitan areas is undergoing an immense pressure. To meet the growing demands of sustainable urban environments and improve the quality of life for citizens, municipalities will increasingly rely on novel transport solutions. In particular, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are expected to have a crucial role in the future smart cities thanks to their interesting features such as autonomy, flexibility, mobility, adaptive altitude, and small dimensions. However, densely populated megalopolises of the future are administrated by several municipals, governmental and…
Système de vision à haute gamme dynamique auto adaptable
2020
High dynamic range (HDR) image generation using temporal exposure bracketing is widely used to recover the whole dynamic range of a filmed scene by fusion of two or more low dynamic range (LDR) images. Temporal exposure bracketing technique should be employed for static scenes and it cannot be applied directly for dynamic scenes. Motions introduced by moving objects in the LDR stack images create ghosts artifacts in the reconstructed HDR image. In this thesis, we have studied and evaluated a large nuber of algorithms used to correct or avoid these artifacts and we mad a trade-off between robustness and complexity in order to propose a real-time HDR video generation system.The real-time HDR …
Experiencing the Smart City Concept: the Challenge of Intelligent District
2016
La città del futuro diventa un complesso sistema a geometria variabile, dove l'ICT è il driver principale di tutte le connessioni - collante della smart city - strumento intelligente che abilita il dialogo tra sistemi diversi. L'uomo rimane l'attore principale di tutte le trasformazioni, perchè ridisegna le sue abitudini, corregge i suoi comportamenti e condivide idee e soluzioni che si vanno affinando continuamente. Le aree dove ci sono più grandi innovazioni sono il campo della mobilità, dell'energia e dell'ICT. La dimensione del distretto intelligente sembra l'unico modulo convincente per testare sistemi, tecnologie e processi. L'interfaccia più interessante da esaminare è la relazione t…
Un disegno smart per Palermo
2014
Negli ultimi anni, il concetto di smart city tenta di creare un’idea di città sostenibile e pensante. Quali sono le condizioni per uno sviluppo urbano sostenibile intelligente? I progetti smart per Palermo, legati alla mobilità, alla riqualificazione urbana e all’efficienza energetica mirano all’applicazione di nuove tecnologie per rendere la città digitale più interattiva, efficiente e smart, caratterizzando il disegno della città pubblica di Living Lab, Open Data, crowdsourcing e progetti sulla creazione di spazi gestiti in tempo reale attraverso ICTs. L’articolo metterà in luce i nuovi modelli e i servizi smart che la città di Palermo sta proponendo per migliorare la propria realtà urban…
Representing social intelligence: An agent-based modeling application
2017
Abstract Intelligent systems are composed of autonomous components that interact each others, with and through the environment, in order to give intelligent support for reaching specific objectives. In such kind of systems the environment is an active part of the system itself and provides input for runtime changing and adaptation. Modeling and representing systems like this is a hard task. In this paper we propose a biologically inspired approach that combined with the use of Agent-Based Modeling allows to create a means for analyzing emergent needs of the system at runtime and converting them into useful intelligent services to be provided. The experiment proposed for validating and illus…
Applying Cathegorical Metrics on Fuzzy Systems
2007
This work analyzes the categorical metrics usage on a very specific subset of Intelligent Systems: Fuzzy Systems. Several characteristics for such systems must be carefully evaluated when metrics and indicators are defined, in order to consider the fuzzy essence as part of the evaluation result. A set of metrics and indicators are defined and applied to the classical inverted pendulum problem. The paper does not intend to provide an exhaustive analysis of the quality evaluation on soft computing problem. It just presents a way to start the study of quality measure in that area.
Balanced difficulty task finder: an adaptive recommendation method for learning tasks based on the concept of state of flow
2020
An adaptive task difficulty assignment method which we reckon as balanced difficulty task finder (BDTF) is proposed in this paper. The aim is to recommend tasks to a learner using a trade-off between skills of the learner and difficulty of the tasks such that the learner experiences a state of flow during the learning. Flow is a mental state that psychologists refer to when someone is completely immersed in an activity. Flow state is a multidisciplinary field of research and has been studied not only in psychology, but also neuroscience, education, sport, and games. The idea behind this paper is to try to achieve a flow state in a similar way as Elo’s chess skill rating (Glickman in Am Ches…
Management of intelligent transport systems applied to sustainable development of motor vehicle transports
2021
The scientific paper presents a concrete research carried out by the authors in order to implement technical concepts, so that those interested in this field can learn about a certain way of exposing the problems with regard to the sustainable development of road transport. The use of computer means in the field of motor vehicle transport have taken on a special magnitude in recent times, and the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), also known as telematics systems used in the field of transport, comprise a wide range of tools and services deriving from ITS technologies, by using communications and information technology. Below we present a technical and managerial study with engineering nu…
City logistics – A Strategic Element of Sustainable Urban Development
2016
Abstract The main purpose of this article is to present the basic development trends in the logistics area of the city, some concept of sustainable logistics and innovative technologies prerequisites to its implementation. The author shows such intelligent technologies as e.g. intelligent traffic control, modular containers, which help to improve utilization of vehicle capacity, and alternative means of transport. This will help to reduce the load on the road infrastructure, thus improving the quality of the environment and life in the city. The main trend in sustainable city logistics is cooperation between suppliers, customers and the public administration. Implementation of intelligent l…
