Mixed model assembly line feeding with discrete location assignments and variable station space

open access: hybridOmega, 2020
Abstract Nowadays, the number of parts used in assembly systems is constantly increasing due to more product models being produced in different variants. Therefore, providing all parts to an assembly line in an efficient manner is a crucial task as space is getting more and more scarce.

Effective blind speech watermarking via adaptive mean modulation and package synchronization in DWT domain

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing, 2017
This paper outlines a package synchronization scheme for blind speech watermarking in the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) domain. Following two-level DWT decomposition, watermark bits and synchronization codes are embedded within selected frames in the ...

Methods for text segmentation from scene images

open access: yesELCVIA Electronic Letters on Computer Vision and Image Analysis, 2014
Camera-captured scene/born-digital image analysis helps in the development of vision for robots to read text, transliterate or translate text, navigate and retrieve search results. However, text in such images does nor follow any standard layout, and its

A nonmonotone GRASP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) is an itera- tive multistart metaheuristic for difficult combinatorial optimization problems. Each GRASP iteration consists of two phases: a construction phase, in which a feasible solution is ...
