	Title	Assessing Artery Motion Compensation in IVUS			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2007	Publication	Computer Analysis Of Images And Patterns	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	4673	Issue		Pages	213-220
	Keywords	validation standards; quality measures; IVUS motion compensation; conservation laws; Fourier development
	Abstract	Cardiac dynamics suppression is a main issue for visual improvement and computation of tissue mechanical properties in IntraVascular UltraSound (IVUS). Although in recent times several motion compensation techniques have arisen, there is a lack of objective evaluation of motion reduction in in vivo pullbacks. We consider that the assessment protocol deserves special attention for the sake of a clinical applicability as reliable as possible. Our work focuses on defining a quality measure and a validation protocol assessing IVUS motion compensation. On the grounds of continuum mechanics laws we introduce a novel score measuring motion reduction in in vivo sequences. Synthetic experiments validate the proposed score as measure of motion parameters accuracy; while results in in vivo pullbacks show its reliability in clinical cases.

	Title	Exploiting Throughput for Pipeline Execution in Streaming Image Processing Applications			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2006	Publication	Euro-Par 2006 Parallel Processing	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	4128	Issue		Pages	1095-1105
	Keywords	12th International Euro–Par Conference
	Abstract	There is a large range of image processing applications that act on an input sequence of image frames that are continuously received. Throughput is a key performance measure to be optimized when execu- ting them. In this paper we propose a new task replication methodology for optimizing throughput for an image processing application in the field of medicine. The results show that by applying the proposed methodo- logy we are able to achieve the desired throughput in all cases, in such a way that the input frames can be processed at any given rate.

	Title	A system to understand hand-drawn floor plans using subgraph isomorphism and Hough transform			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	1997	Publication	Machine Vision and Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	10	Issue	3	Pages	150-158
	Keywords	Line drawings – Hough transform – Graph matching – CAD systems – Graphics recognition
	Abstract	Presently, man-machine interface development is a widespread research activity. A system to understand hand drawn architectural drawings in a CAD environment is presented in this paper. To understand a document, we have to identify its building elements and their structural properties. An attributed graph structure is chosen as a symbolic representation of the input document and the patterns to recognize in it. An inexact subgraph isomorphism procedure using relaxation labeling techniques is performed. In this paper we focus on how to speed up the matching. There is a building element, the walls, characterized by a hatching pattern. Using a straight line Hough transform (SLHT)-based method, we recognize this pattern, characterized by parallel straight lines, and remove from the input graph the edges belonging to this pattern. The isomorphism is then applied to the remainder of the input graph. When all the building elements have been recognized, the document is redrawn, correcting the inaccurate strokes obtained from a hand-drawn input.

	Title	A string based method to recognize symbols and structural textures in architectural plans			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	1998	Publication	Graphics Recognition Algorithms and Systems Second International Workshop, GREC' 97 Nancy, France, August 22–23, 1997 Selected Papers	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	1389	Issue	1998	Pages	91-103
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper deals with the recognition of symbols and structural textures in architectural plans using string matching techniques. A plan is represented by an attributed graph whose nodes represent characteristic points and whose edges represent segments. Symbols and textures can be seen as a set of regions, i.e. closed loops in the graph, with a particular arrangement. The search for a symbol involves a graph matching between the regions of a model graph and the regions of the graph representing the document. Discriminating a texture means a clustering of neighbouring regions of this graph. Both procedures involve a similarity measure between graph regions. A string codification is used to represent the sequence of outlining edges of a region. Thus, the similarity between two regions is defined in terms of the string edit distance between their boundary strings. The use of string matching allows the recognition method to work also under presence of distortion.

	Title	A Novel FLDA Formulation for Numerical Stability Analysis			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2004	Publication	Recent Advances in Artificial Intelligence Research and Development	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	113	Issue		Pages	77-84
	Keywords	Supervised Learning; Linear Discriminant Analysis; Numerical Stability; Computer Vision
	Abstract	Fisher Linear Discriminant Analysis (FLDA) is one of the most popular techniques used in classification applying dimensional reduction. The numerical scheme involves the inversion of the within-class scatter matrix, which makes FLDA potentially ill-conditioned when it becomes singular. In this paper we present a novel explicit formulation of FLDA in terms of the eccentricity ratio and eigenvector orientations of the within-class scatter matrix. An analysis of this function will characterize those situations where FLDA response is not reliable because of numerical instability. This can solve common situations of poor classification performance in computer vision.

	Title	An Overview of Symbol Recognition			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2014	Publication	Handbook of Document Image Processing and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	D	Issue		Pages	523-551
	Keywords	Pattern recognition; Shape descriptors; Structural descriptors; Symbolrecognition; Symbol spotting
	Abstract	According to the Cambridge Dictionaries Online, a symbol is a sign, shape, or object that is used to represent something else. Symbol recognition is a subfield of general pattern recognition problems that focuses on identifying, detecting, and recognizing symbols in technical drawings, maps, or miscellaneous documents such as logos and musical scores. This chapter aims at providing the reader an overview of the different existing ways of describing and recognizing symbols and how the field has evolved to attain a certain degree of maturity.

	Title	Multi-Class Classification in Image Analysis Via Error-Correcting Output Codes			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2011	Publication	Innovations in Intelligent Image Analysis	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	339	Issue		Pages	7-29
	Keywords
	Abstract	A common way to model multi-class classification problems is by means of Error-Correcting Output Codes (ECOC). Given a multi-class problem, the ECOC technique designs a codeword for each class, where each position of the code identifies the membership of the class for a given binary problem.A classification decision is obtained by assigning the label of the class with the closest code. In this paper, we overview the state-of-the-art on ECOC designs and test them in real applications. Results on different multi-class data sets show the benefits of using the ensemble of classifiers when categorizing objects in images.

	Title	Subtle Facial Expression Recognition in Still Images and Videos			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2011	Publication	Advances in Face Image Analysis: Techniques and Technologies	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue	14	Pages	259-277
	Keywords
	Abstract	This chapter addresses the recognition of basic facial expressions. It has three main contributions. First, the authors introduce a view- and texture independent schemes that exploits facial action parameters estimated by an appearance-based 3D face tracker. they represent the learned facial actions associated with different facial expressions by time series. Two dynamic recognition schemes are proposed: (1) the first is based on conditional predictive models and on an analysis-synthesis scheme, and (2) the second is based on examples allowing straightforward use of machine learning approaches. Second, the authors propose an efficient recognition scheme based on the detection of keyframes in videos. Third, the authors compare the dynamic scheme with a static one based on analyzing individual snapshots and show that in general the former performs better than the latter. The authors then provide evaluations of performance using Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Non parametric Discriminant Analysis (NDA), and Support Vector Machines (SVM).

	Title	A Discriminative Non-Linear Manifold Learning Technique for Face Recognition			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2011	Publication	Informatics Engineering and Information Science	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	254	Issue	6	Pages	339-353
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this paper we propose a novel non-linear discriminative analysis technique for manifold learning. The proposed approach is a discriminant version of Laplacian Eigenmaps which takes into account the class label information in order to guide the procedure of non-linear dimensionality reduction. By following the large margin concept, the graph Laplacian is split in two components: within-class graph and between-class graph to better characterize the discriminant property of the data. Our approach has been tested on several challenging face databases and it has been conveniently compared with other linear and non-linear techniques. The experimental results confirm that our method outperforms, in general, the existing ones. Although we have concentrated in this paper on the face recognition problem, the proposed approach could also be applied to other category of objects characterized by large variance in their appearance.

	Title	Semantics of Human Behavior in Image Sequences			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2011	Publication	Computer Analysis of Human Behavior	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue	7	Pages	151-182
	Keywords
	Abstract	Human behavior is contextualized and understanding the scene of an action is crucial for giving proper semantics to behavior. In this chapter we present a novel approach for scene understanding. The emphasis of this work is on the particular case of Human Event Understanding. We introduce a new taxonomy to organize the different semantic levels of the Human Event Understanding framework proposed. Such a framework particularly contributes to the scene understanding domain by (i) extracting behavioral patterns from the integrative analysis of spatial, temporal, and contextual evidence and (ii) integrative analysis of bottom-up and top-down approaches in Human Event Understanding. We will explore how the information about interactions between humans and their environment influences the performance of activity recognition, and how this can be extrapolated to the temporal domain in order to extract higher inferences from human events observed in sequences of images.

	Title	Beyond the Static Camera: Issues and Trends in Active Vision			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2011	Publication	Visual Analysis of Humans: Looking at People	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue	2	Pages	11-30
	Keywords
	Abstract	Maximizing both the area coverage and the resolution per target is highly desirable in many applications of computer vision. However, with a limited number of cameras viewing a scene, the two objectives are contradictory. This chapter is dedicated to active vision systems, trying to achieve a trade-off between these two aims and examining the use of high-level reasoning in such scenarios. The chapter starts by introducing different approaches to active cameras configurations. Later, a single active camera system to track a moving object is developed, offering the reader first-hand understanding of the issues involved. Another section discusses practical considerations in building an active vision platform, taking as an example a multi-camera system developed for a European project. The last section of the chapter reflects upon the future trends of using semantic factors to drive smartly coordinated active systems.

	Title	Writer Identification in Old Handwritten Music Scores			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2012	Publication	Pattern Recognition and Signal Processing in Archaeometry: Mathematical and Computational Solutions for Archaeology	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	27-63
	Keywords
	Abstract	The aim of writer identification is determining the writer of a piece of handwriting from a set of writers. In this paper we present a system for writer identification in old handwritten music scores. Even though an important amount of compositions contains handwritten text in the music scores, the aim of our work is to use only music notation to determine the author. The steps of the system proposed are the following. First of all, the music sheet is preprocessed and normalized for obtaining a single binarized music line, without the staff lines. Afterwards, 100 features are extracted for every music line, which are subsequently used in a k-NN classifier that compares every feature vector with prototypes stored in a database. By applying feature selection and extraction methods on the original feature set, the performance is increased. The proposed method has been tested on a database of old music scores from the 17th to 19th centuries, achieving a recognition rate of about 95%.
