The integration of variable renewable energy sources in islands has become crucial in reducing their dependency on imported fossil fuels. This study aimed to assess the energy transition of an island towards a 100% renewable energy system for power generation, inland transport, and potable water provision. Linking various fossil-fuel-consuming sectors, such as transport and potable water supply systems, may str...
Background: Consumer-level cameras have provided an advantage of designing cost-effective, non-contact physiological parameters estimation approaches which is not possible with gold standard estimation tech niques. This encourages the development of non-contact estimation methods using camera technology. Therefore, this work aims to present a systematic review summarizing the currently existing face-based non-c...
