Regional Initiatives

• BQR INSA CROME 12/2013-12/2016

  Participants: Fabrice Valois

  The partners in this project are the CITI DynaMid team and LIRIS. The project studies the coordination of a fleet of mobile robots for the multi-view analysis of complex scenes.

• Labex IMU Priva'Mov 10/2013-10/2016

  Participants: Patrice Raveneau, Hervé Rivano, Razvan Stanica

  The partners in this project are DRIM LIRIS, Inria Privatics, INSA EVS, and LET ENTPE. The aim of this project is to develop and deploy a crowdsensing platform to collect mobility traces from a sample of real users equipped with android devices, while carrying research on privacy preservation issues. Our contribution consists on developing the platform and using the collected data to analyze cellular network offloading strategies.

• Labex IMU UrPolSens 10/2015-10/2018

  Participants: Ahmed Boubrima, Leo Le Taro, Walid Bechkit, Hervé Rivano

  The partners in this project are Ifsttar, LMFA, EVS, and TUBA, with Inria Urbanet leading the project. UrPolSens deals with the monitoring of air pollution using low-cost sensors interconnected by a wireless networks. Although they are less accurate than the high-end sensors used today, low-cost autonomous air quality sensors allow to achieve a denser spatial granularity and, hopefully, a better monitoring of air pollution. The main objectives of this project are to improve the modeling of air pollution dispersion; propose efficient models to optimize the deployment the sensors while considering the pollution dispersion and the impact of urban environment on communications; deploy a small-scale network for pollution monitoring as a proof of concept; compare the measured and estimated levels of exposure; study the spatial disparities in exposure between urban areas.
