Urban land-use planning and management are in constant mutation throughout the world. With sustainability as a goal, the use of participative GIS is becoming more and more in demand. Given the willingness of local authorities to test participatory models a ...
Rapid population growth and city expansion, along with scarce resources for planning and management, are widely shared characteristics of southern cities. The System for Monitoring Urban Functionalities (SMURF) has been designed and developed for the city ...

We investigate the learning of the appearance of an object from a single image of it. Instead of using a large number of pictures of an object to be recognized, we use pictures of other objects to learn invariance to noise and variations in pose and illumi ...
Most of new databases are no more built from scratch, but re-use existing data from several autonomous data stores. To facilitate application development, the data to be re-used should preferably be redefined as a virtual database, providing for the logica ...
This paper presents an application where an integrated GPS/IMU system is used for land survey (mounted on a van), providing a significant improvement on the efficiency of the road status monitoring process. Being initially developed for aircraft navigation ...
The effects miniaturization has on microsystems and related fields are the central subject of this work. Physical phenomena we are used to in our conventionally sized world seldom work at smaller scales. Before attempting to design a microsystem or try to ...
This thesis, based on a project realised in cooperation with Électricité de France (EDF), proposes a new concept for a Decision Aid Function FOr Restoration (DAFFOR) of transmission power systems after a blackout. DAFFOR is an interactive computer tool whi ...
We attempt to find suitable modeling for complex gesture patterns so that we can utilize it for recognition and reproduction. As a result, we propose a hybrid framework where the observable characteristics of gestures are modeled explicitly, while pattern ...
The work presented in this thesis deals with several problems met in information retrieval (IR), task which one can summarise as identifying, in a collection of "documents", a subset of documents carrying a sought information, i.e.. relevant for a request ...
