Adel M. Alimi

Adel M. Alimi was born in Sfax, Tunisia, in 1966. He graduated in electrical engineering, in 1990. He obtained a Ph.D. degree and then an HDR both in electrical engineering in 1995 and 2000, respectively. He is now an Associate Professor in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Sfax. His research interest includes applications of intelligent methods (neural networks, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms) to pattern recognition, robotic systems, vision systems, and industrial processes. He focuses his research on intelligent pattern recognition, learning, analysis and intelligent control of large scale complex systems. He is an Associate Editor of Pattern Recognition Letters, International Journal of Image and Graphics, International Journal of Robotics and Automation. He was Guest Editor of several special issues of international journals, for example, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, Soft Computing, Journal of Decision Systems, Integrated Computer Aided Engineering, Systems Analysis Modelling and Simulations). He was the general chairman of the International Conference on Machine Intelligence ACIDCA-ICMI'2005 & 2000. He is an IEEE Senior Member and Member of IAPR, INNS, and PRS.
