A novel statistical and multiscale local binary feature for 2D and 3D face verification

Abdelmalik Ouamane, Elhocine Boutellaa, Messaoud Bengherabi, Abdelmalik Taleb-Ahmed, Abdenour Hadid

In this paper, we propose a face verification framework using 2D and 3D images. We first introduce a novel face descriptor based on the local statistics of the 2D and 3D images. In the proposed framework, the novel descriptor is combined with three other popular and effective local descriptors,…

General Variable Neighborhood Search for computing graph separators

Jesús Sánchez-Oro, Nenad Mladenovic, Abraham Duarte

Computing graph separators in networks has a wide range of real-world applications. For instance, in telecommunication networks, a separator determines the capacity and brittleness of the network. In the field of graph algorithms, the computation of balanced small-sized separators is very useful,…

Mathematical programming based heuristics for the 0–1 MIP: a survey

Said Hanafi, Raca Todosijević

The 0–1 mixed integer programming problem is used for modeling many combinatorial problems, ranging from logical design to scheduling and routing as well as encompassing graph theory models for resource allocation and financial planning. This paper provides a survey of heuristics based on…

A general variable neighborhood search for solving the uncapacitated r-allocation p-hub median problem

Raca Todosijević, Dragan Urošević, Nenad Mladenovic, Said Hanafi

The \(p\) -hub median problem consists of choosing \(p\) hub locations from a set of nodes with pairwise traffic demands in order to route the traffic between the origin-destination pairs at minimum cost. We accept general assumption that transportation between non-hub nodes is possible only via \(…

Wave propagation in head on bonnet impact: Material and design issues

Edmondo Di Pasquale, Daniel Coutellier

Head on bonnet impact is becoming more and more important in automotive design as regulations on pedestrian safety become more demanding. Despite the relatively low amount of energy involved, these impacts are truly dynamic phenomena as the event duration is comparable with the traveling time of…

An experimental work on the effect of the radius of rotation on the performance of revolving heat pipe (RVHP)

Hamdy Hassan, Souad Harmand

Rotating heat pipe uses centrifugal acceleration to transfer condensed liquid from the condenser to evaporator. Revolving heat pipe (RVHP) is a rotating heat pipe but its axis of rotation is parallel to and offset from its central axis. This paper presents an experimental work on the effect of…

Optimization of PZT ceramic IDT sensors for health monitoring of structures

Rafatou Takpara, Marc Duquennoy, Mohammadi Ouaftouh, Christian Courtois, Frédéric Jenot, Mohamed Rguiti

Surface acoustic waves (SAW) are particularly suited to effectively monitoring and characterizing structural surfaces (condition of the surface, coating, thin layer, micro-cracks…) as their energy is localized on the surface, within approximately one wavelength. Conventionally, in non-destructive…

Dynamic Characterization of III-Nitride-Based High-Speed Photodiodes

Bandar Alshehri, Karim Dogheche, Sofiane Belahsene, Abderrahim Ramdane, Gilles Patriarche, Didier Decoster, El Hadj Dogheche

The objective of this study is to study, design, and develop a high-speed PIN photodiode based on In x Ga 1-x N/GaN alloys deposited by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The configuration used for the PIN photodiode is based on an absorbing layer composed of In 0.1 Ga 0.9 N multiple quantum…

A general variable neighborhood search variants for the travelling salesman problem with draft limits

Raca Todosijević, Anis Mjirda, Marko Mladenovic, Said Hanafi, Bernard Gendron

In this paper, we present two general variable neighborhood search (GVNS) based variants for solving the traveling salesman problem with draft limits (TSPDL), a recent extension of the traveling salesman problem. TSPDL arises in the context of maritime transportation. It consists of finding optimal…
