Interest on palmprint biometrics has experimented a strong growth in the last decades due to its useful characteristics as uniqueness, permanence, reliability, user-friendliness, acceptability, non-intrusiveness, and low cost of the acquisition devices, which make it attractive for civil and commercial applications. Accordingly, a wide research has been developed in this field. Nevertheless, there...
For several years, researches dedicated to autonomous driving are growing and a great number of applications and algorithms have been developed for embedded ADAS. In a part of these very critical applications, the tracking of the road's obstacles is one of the key elements. The tracking is built around a stage of measurement to track association. It consists in assessing the similarity between two...
Over the years, different types of relay selection mechanism in wireless networks have been proposed for Cooperative Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols considering the metrics like — residual energy, delay, signal to noise ratio (SNR) etc. In recent days, distance metric is added to the list for optimal relay selection. However, protocols those use distance metric are found to be suffered from...
In wireless sensor networks, nodes can be static or mobile, depending on the application requirements. Dealing with mobility can pose some formidable challenges in protocol design, particularly, at the link and network layers. These difficulties require mobility adaption algorithms to efficiently localize mobile nodes and predict the quality of link that can be established with these nodes. An off...
Vision system could enhance the mobile robot applications and features. However, the vision system could also improve the overall system of mobile robot so as to contain higher complexity with the purpose to be reliable, effective, robust and fast enough to achieve their goals. This paper will present a simple yet reliable monocular vision system in the mobile robot to increase their capabilities...

The Mint-Route routing protocol was proposed to enhance reliability by choosing adjacent link with the smallest number of lost packets as next hop in wireless sensor networks. However, since packets are transmitted over unstable wireless link, physical distance between nodes can mostly affect the reliability. So, long path with many hops is usually established between source and destination while...
In the belief function theory, the concept of conflict appearing while confronting several expertspsila opinions can serve for many purposes, and in particular it can be used as an indicator of the relative reliability of the experts. The traditional definition of conflict as the basic belief assigned to the empty set during the combination has several issues and in particular it may not adequately...
