We present the determination of the recent past star-formation history of a sample of Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs) selected on their mid-infrared emission thanks to Spitzer and ISO. We use a Monte Carlo simulation to derive what happened in the last Gyr. We derive a burst duration of about 0.1 Gyr, which produces about 10% of the stellar mass. Detailed results will be given in Marcillac et al. (in prep.).
