PortiK: A computer vision based solution for real-time automatic solid waste characterization - Application to an aluminium stream.

In Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs), recyclable municipal solid waste is turned into a precious commodity. However, effective recycling relies on effective waste sorting, which is still a challenge to sustainable development of our society. To help the operations improve and optimise their process, this paper describes PortiK, a solution for automatic waste analysis.

Better understanding of water quality evolution in water distribution networks using data clustering.

The complexity of water distribution networks raises challenges in managing, monitoring and understanding their behavior. This article proposes a novel methodology applying data clustering to the results of hydraulic simulation to define quality zones, i.e.
