Image and Pattern Recognition – Intelligent and Communicative Systems

Abstract

The IRF-SIC laboratory comprises three research teams (IRF, R2IS, and MS2I). Its research themes are the following : • Image Processing and Pattern Recognition and their Applications : classification, watermarking and applications, document analysis, handwritten, character and handwritten signature recognition, satellite imagery and applications, videos analysis and motion tracking, etc. • Information Retrieval : electronic and multimedia document, and digital typography; data warehouse, data mining and graphs; social networks, archiving and indexing of Arabic documents • Systems Engineering : information system engineering; business intelligence, big data and cloud computing; Real-time and embedded systems, service-oriented architecture and distributed systems, services (modeling, design, QoS, etc.), systems and network security (fixed and mobile). • Modeling, Simulation, Interaction and Intelligence: Intelligent tutoring systems, knowledge engineering and semantic web, agent-based modeling and simulation of complex ecological social systems, Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning, logistic and transport, and cellular automata for spatio-temporal dynamics simulation.
