Risques économico-environnementaux liés aux emballages traditionnels pour vivres frais utilisés dans le bassin maraîcher de Foumbot (Cameroun) by Alassa Mfouapon, Moïse Moupou, Jeannine Mefire, Jean-Noël Ngapgue

“…However, considering the diversity of market garden produces within the region, the increasing volumes of produced collected and the quality of traditional packing, economical and environmental issues of traditional packing are become the majors concerns which need sustainable alternatives. The strategy consisting of adapting products to specific traditional packing, the afforestation process of endemic species such as raffia and other raw materials from forest-gallery, the direct selling without intermediaries and in the same way the scaffolding piles should be therefore confirmed as relevant strategies dealing with the sustainability of market garden distribution.…”

Approach of target tracking combining particle filter and metric learning by Hongyan WANG, Libin ZHANG, Guoqiang CHEN, Zumin WANG, Zhiyuan GUAN

“…Focusing on the issue of the significant degradation of target tracking performance caused by adverse factors in complex environment, a target tracking method based on particle filtering and metric learning was proposed.First of all, a convolutional neural network (CNN) was offline-trained via the proposed method to effectively obtain the target characteristics.After that, the distance measurement matrix optimization model to minimize the prediction error could be constructed on the basis of the metric learning for kernel regression (MLKR) method, and the resultant model could be handled via using the gradient descent approach to obtain the optimal solution of the candidate target.Moreover, based on the predicted value of the optimal candidate target, the reconstruction error was calculated to construct the target observation model.Finally, a long-short-term update strategy was introduced to achieve the effective target tracking under the particle filter tracking framework.The experiment results show that the proposed method has higher tracking accuracy and better robustness in complex environments.…”
