Hyperspectral images (HSIs) have been used in civil and military scenarios for ground recognition, urban development management, rare minerals identification, and diverse other purposes. However, HSIs have a significant volume of information and require ...

Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) systems are used to identify a vehicle from an image that contains its plate. These systems have applications in a wide range of areas, such as toll payment, border control, and traffic surveillance. ALPR ...

Nowadays, wireless communications at frequencies of gigahertz have an increasing demand due to the ever-increasing number of electronic devices that uses this type of communication. They are implemented by Radio Frequency (RF) circuits. However, the ...

In this paper, a hardware design based on the field programmable gate array (FPGA) to implement a linear regression algorithm is presented. The arithmetic operations were optimized by applying a fixed-point number representation for all hardware based ...

Nowadays, the development of systems based on Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) brings big challenges to the designers due to problems of scalability, such as efficient Mapping and Placement, which are NP-hard problems. Several solutions have been proposed to ...

This paper presents a modified version of the well-known Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm as an alternative for the single-objective Genetic Algorithm (GA) that is currently the state-of-the-art method to map real-time applications tasks onto ...
