Target 5G visible light positioning signal subcarrier extraction method using particle swarm optimization algorithm
2021
International audience; With the explosive growth of demand for Internet of Things (IoT) applications and the increasing dependence of users on wireless connections, indoor location based service(LBS) under 5G-Public-Private Partnership (5G-PPP) using cases have received more attention and get rapid development. Thanks to the safty, security and customization of 5G network pointed by 5G forum white paper, indoor positioning systems using unified 5G New Radio (NR) signals have become the focus of the next generation of visible light positioning (VLP) systems. In 5G New Radio(NR) frame, totally 192 subcarriers are used to carry positioning reference signal(PRS). In order to improve the positi…
Extension des méthodes de géométrie algorithmique aux structures fractales
2013
Defining shapes by iteration allows us to generate new structures with specific properties (roughness,lacunarity), which cannot be achieved with classic modelling.For developing an iterative modeller to design fractals described by a BCIFS, we developed a set oftools and algorithms that permits one to evaluate, to characterize and to analyse different geometricproperties (localisation, convex hull, volume, fractal dimension) of fractals. We identified properties ofstandard CAD operations (intersection, union, offset, . . . ) allowing us to approximate them for fractalsand also to optimize these approximation algorithms.In some cases, it is possible to construct a CIFS with generalised HUTCH…
Improving IoT Communications Based on Smart Routing Algorithms
2018
International audience; Due to the recorded success by Internet of Things (IoT) technology, more and more domains use it as a communications and exchange network such as e-health, smart cities, vehicles, etc. IoT don’t stop integrating an important number of components and objects that are characterized by their complexity and heterogeneity. Such constraints make the existing routings protocols unsuitable for IoT communications. To accomplish all the expected tasks and satisfy the user services, it is important to guarantee a quality of communication that answers to the requirements of the various applications in terms of data and processing (availability, integrity, efficiency, etc.). The …
Optimization of Passive Constrained Layer Damping (Pcld) Treatments for Vibration Reduction
2015
An efficient method to reduce the frequency averaged transverse vibration level of aplate by optimizing the position of attached passive constrained layer damping PCLD is presented.This method uses a multilayer anisotropic plate model which is an equivalent single layer platemodel (ESL) where transverse shear stresses and displacements are continuous at each layer’sinterfaces. Hence, for a laminate composed of an arbitrary number of layers, all the quantities arerelated to those of the first layer. The optimization process is based on the use of the ESL platemodel combined with the genetic algorithm (GA) and Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) algorithmimplemented in a Rayleigh-Ritz resolution p…
On a posteriori error bounds for approximations of the generalized Stokes problem generated by the Uzawa algorithm
2012
In this paper, we derive computable a posteriori error bounds for approximations computed by the Uzawa algorithm for the generalized Stokes problem. We show that for each Uzawa iteration both the velocity error and the pressure error are bounded from above by a constant multiplied by the L2-norm of the divergence of the velocity. The derivation of the estimates essentially uses a posteriori estimates of the functional type for the Stokes problem. peerReviewed
A Robust Multi Stage Technique for Image Binarization of Degraded Historical Documents
2017
International audience; Document image binarization is a central problem in many document analysis systems. Indeed, it represents one of the basic challenges, especially in case of historical documents analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel robust multi stage framework that combines different existing document image thresholding methods for the purpose of getting a better binarization result. CLAHE technique is introduced to significantly enhance contrast in some poor images. The proposed method then uses a hybrid algorithm to partition image into foreground and background. A special procedure is finally applied in order to remove small noise and correct characters morphology. Experime…
Towards Affective Algorithmic Composition
2013
Automated systems for the selective adjustment of emotional responses by means of musical features are driving an emerging field: affective algorithmic composition. Strategies for algorithmic composition, and the large variety of systems for computer-automation of such strategies, are well documented in literature. Re-views of computer systems for expressive performance (CSEMPs) also provide a thorough overview of the extensive work carried out in the area of expressive computer music performance, with some crossover between composition and performance systems. Although there has been a significant amount of work (largely carried out within the last decade) implementing systems for algorith…
Forest accessibility, Madonie mountains (northern Sicily, Italy): implementing a GIS decision support system
2021
Valorisation and sustainable exploitation of woody biomass from cultivation interventions might be an important opportunity to track alternative development trails for rural communities in natural protected areas. The governance of Mediterranean protected areas is characterized by overlapping, sometimes conflicting institutions, stakeholders and regulations, causing negative impacts on decision-making processes. We present an open source GIS-based decision support system tool for mapping forest accessibility and optimizing woody biomass extraction. Two models were implemented to support forest managers during the decision-making process in designing and managing wood-energy supply chains. T…

Regulation issues of algorithmic administrative decisions: looking for an Italian legislative model
2020
The work aims to highlight the most relevant problematic points that should be taken into consideration by the Italian legislator in order to introduce a regulation of automated administrative decisions. After having briefly recalled the current legal framework on the digitalization of administrative acts and the main doctrinal theories on this subject, the significant positions espressed in the recent administrative case law are examined. With the intent to discuss possible regulatory measures, the main legislative and interpretative solutions developed in this regard in the French legal system are also analyzed.
