	Title	Standardized evaluation methodology and reference database for evaluating IVUS image segmentation			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2014	Publication	Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics	Abbreviated Journal	CMIG
	Volume	38	Issue	2	Pages	70-90
	Keywords	IVUS (intravascular ultrasound); Evaluation framework; Algorithm comparison; Image segmentation
	Abstract	This paper describes an evaluation framework that allows a standardized and quantitative comparison of IVUS lumen and media segmentation algorithms. This framework has been introduced at the MICCAI 2011 Computing and Visualization for (Intra)Vascular Imaging (CVII) workshop, comparing the results of eight teams that participated. We describe the available data-base comprising of multi-center, multi-vendor and multi-frequency IVUS datasets, their acquisition, the creation of the reference standard and the evaluation measures. The approaches address segmentation of the lumen, the media, or both borders; semi- or fully-automatic operation; and 2-D vs. 3-D methodology. Three performance measures for quantitative analysis have been proposed. The results of the evaluation indicate that segmentation of the vessel lumen and media is possible with an accuracy that is comparable to manual annotation when semi-automatic methods are used, as well as encouraging results can be obtained also in case of fully-automatic segmentation. The analysis performed in this paper also highlights the challenges in IVUS segmentation that remains to be solved.

	Title	Exploring the impact of inter-query variability on the performance of retrieval systems			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	11th International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8814	Issue		Pages	413–420
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper introduces a framework for evaluating the performance of information retrieval systems. Current evaluation metrics provide an average score that does not consider performance variability across the query set. In this manner, conclusions lack of any statistical significance, yielding poor inference to cases outside the query set and possibly unfair comparisons. We propose to apply statistical methods in order to obtain a more informative measure for problems in which different query classes can be identified. In this context, we assess the performance variability on two levels: overall variability across the whole query set and specific query class-related variability. To this end, we estimate confidence bands for precision-recall curves, and we apply ANOVA in order to assess the significance of the performance across different query classes.

	Title	Classification of Administrative Document Images by Logo Identification			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2014	Publication	Graphics Recognition. Current Trends and Challenges	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8746	Issue		Pages	49-58
	Keywords	Administrative Document Classification; Logo Recognition; Logo Spotting
	Abstract	This paper is focused on the categorization of administrative document images (such as invoices) based on the recognition of the supplier’s graphical logo. Two different methods are proposed, the first one uses a bag-of-visual-words model whereas the second one tries to locate logo images described by the blurred shape model descriptor within documents by a sliding-window technique. Preliminar results are reported with a dataset of real administrative documents.

	Title	e-Crowds: a mobile platform for browsing and searching in historical demographyrelated manuscripts			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	14th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	228 - 233
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents a prototype system running on portable devices for browsing and word searching through historical handwritten document collections. The platform adapts the paradigm of eBook reading, where the narrative is not necessarily sequential, but centered on the user actions. The novelty is to replace digitally born books by digitized historical manuscripts of marriage licenses, so document analysis tasks are required in the browser. With an active reading paradigm, the user can cast queries of people names, so he/she can implicitly follow genealogical links. In addition, the system allows combined searches: the user can refine a search by adding more words to search. As a second contribution, the retrieval functionality involves as a core technology a word spotting module with an unified approach, which allows combined query searches, and also two input modalities: query-by-example, and query-by-string.

	Title	Robust Head Gestures Recognition for Assistive Technology			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2014	Publication	Pattern Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8495	Issue		Pages	152-161
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents a system capable of recognizing six head gestures: nodding, shaking, turning right, turning left, looking up, and looking down. The main difference of our system compared to other methods is that the Hidden Markov Models presented in this paper, are fully connected and consider all possible states in any given order, providing the following advantages to the system: (1) allows unconstrained movement of the head and (2) it can be easily integrated into a wearable device (e.g. glasses, neck-hung devices), in which case it can robustly recognize gestures in the presence of ego-motion. Experimental results show that this approach outperforms common methods that use restricted HMMs for each gesture.

	Title	Unsupervised Deep Feature Extraction Of Hyperspectral Images			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	6th Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Convolutional networks; deep learning; sparse learning; feature extraction; hyperspectral image classification
	Abstract	This paper presents an effective unsupervised sparse feature learning algorithm to train deep convolutional networks on hyperspectral images. Deep convolutional hierarchical representations are learned and then used for pixel classification. Features in lower layers present less abstract representations of data, while higher layers represent more abstract and complex characteristics. We successfully illustrate the performance of the extracted representations in a challenging AVIRIS hyperspectral image classification problem, compared to standard dimensionality reduction methods like principal component analysis (PCA) and its kernel counterpart (kPCA). The proposed method largely outperforms the previous state-ofthe-art results on the same experimental setting. Results show that single layer networks can extract powerful discriminative features only when the receptive field accounts for neighboring pixels. Regarding the deep architecture, we can conclude that: (1) additional layers in a deep architecture significantly improve the performance w.r.t. single layer variants; (2) the max-pooling step in each layer is mandatory to achieve satisfactory results; and (3) the performance gain w.r.t. the number of layers is upper bounded, since the spatial resolution is reduced at each pooling, resulting in too spatially coarse output features.

	Title	BH2M: the Barcelona Historical Handwritten Marriages database			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	22nd International Conference on Pattern Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	256 - 261
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents an image database of historical handwritten marriages records stored in the archives of Barcelona cathedral, and the corresponding meta-data addressed to evaluate the performance of document analysis algorithms. The contribution of this paper is twofold. First, it presents a complete ground truth which covers the whole pipeline of handwriting recognition research, from layout analysis to recognition and understanding. Second, it is the first dataset in the emerging area of genealogical document analysis, where documents are manuscripts pseudo-structured with specific lexicons and the interest is beyond pure transcriptions but context dependent.

	Year	2014	Publication	9th International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	3	Issue		Pages	211-215
	Keywords	Crowdsourcing Platform; Mobile Crowdsourcing
	Abstract	This paper presents details of a general purpose micro-task on-demand platform based on the crowdsourcing philosophy. This platform was specifically developed for mobile devices in order to exploit the strengths of such devices; namely: i) massivity, ii) ubiquity and iii) embedded sensors. The combined use of mobile platforms and the crowdsourcing model allows to tackle from the simplest to the most complex tasks. Users experience is the highlighted feature of this platform (this fact is extended to both task-proposer and tasksolver). Proper tools according with a specific task are provided to a task-solver in order to perform his/her job in a simpler, faster and appealing way. Moreover, a task can be easily submitted by just selecting predefined templates, which cover a wide range of possible applications. Examples of its usage in computer vision and computer games are provided illustrating the potentiality of the platform.

	Title	Spotting Symbol Using Sparsity over Learned Dictionary of Local Descriptors			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	11th IAPR International Workshop on Document Analysis and Systems	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	156-160
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper proposes a new approach to spot symbols into graphical documents using sparse representations. More specifically, a dictionary is learned from a training database of local descriptors defined over the documents. Following their sparse representations, interest points sharing similar properties are used to define interest regions. Using an original adaptation of information retrieval techniques, a vector model for interest regions and for a query symbol is built based on its sparsity in a visual vocabulary where the visual words are columns in the learned dictionary. The matching process is performed comparing the similarity between vector models. Evaluation on SESYD datasets demonstrates that our method is promising.

	Title	Runlength Histogram Image Signature for Perceptual Retrieval of Architectural Floor Plans			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2014	Publication	Graphics Recognition. Current Trends and Challenges	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8746	Issue		Pages	135-146
	Keywords	Graphics recognition; Graphics retrieval; Image classification
	Abstract	This paper proposes a runlength histogram signature as a perceptual descriptor of architectural plans in a retrieval scenario. The style of an architectural drawing is characterized by the perception of lines, shapes and texture. Such visual stimuli are the basis for defining semantic concepts as space properties, symmetry, density, etc. We propose runlength histograms extracted in vertical, horizontal and diagonal directions as a characterization of line and space properties in floorplans, so it can be roughly associated to a description of walls and room structure. A retrieval application illustrates the performance of the proposed approach, where given a plan as a query, similar ones are obtained from a database. A ground truth based on human observation has been constructed to validate the hypothesis. Additional retrieval results on sketched building’s facades are reported qualitatively in this paper. Its good description and its adaptability to two different sketch drawings despite its simplicity shows the interest of the proposed approach and opens a challenging research line in graphics recognition.

	Title	ChaLearn Looking at People Challenge 2014: Dataset and Results			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	ECCV Workshop on ChaLearn Looking at People	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8925	Issue		Pages	459-473
	Keywords	Human Pose Recovery; Behavior Analysis; Action and in- teractions; Multi-modal gestures; recognition
	Abstract	This paper summarizes the ChaLearn Looking at People 2014 challenge data and the results obtained by the participants. The competition was split into three independent tracks: human pose recovery from RGB data, action and interaction recognition from RGB data sequences, and multi-modal gesture recognition from RGB-Depth sequences. For all the tracks, the goal was to perform user-independent recognition in sequences of continuous images using the overlapping Jaccard index as the evaluation measure. In this edition of the ChaLearn challenge, two large novel data sets were made publicly available and the Microsoft Codalab platform were used to manage the competition. Outstanding results were achieved in the three challenge tracks, with accuracy results of 0.20, 0.50, and 0.85 for pose recovery, action/interaction recognition, and multi-modal gesture recognition, respectively.

	Title	Evaluation of feature detectors and descriptors in VISIBLE-LWIR cross-spectral imaging			Type	Report
	Year	2014	Publication	CVC Technical Report	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	177	Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Multi-spectral; Cross-spectral; Visible-LWIR imaging; Multimodal.
	Abstract	This thesis evaluates the performance of different state-of-art feature detectors and descriptors algorithms in the Visible-LWIR cross-spectral scenario. The focus is to determine if current detector and descriptor algorithms can be used to match features between the LWIR spectrum and the visible spectrum in applications such as, visual odometry, object recognition, image registration and stereo vision. An outdoor cross-spectral dataset was created to evaluate the suitability of the different algorithms. The results show that the tested algorithms are not suitable to the task of matching features across different spectra. The repeatability ratio was smaller than the 30 percent in the best case and in general matched features were not accurate located. Additionally, these results also suggest that is necessary to create new algorithms that take into account the nature of the different spectra, describing characteristics that exist in both spectra such as discontinuities.

	Title	3D reconstruction and recognition using structured ligth			Type	Report
	Year	2014	Publication	CVC Technical Report	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	179	Issue		Pages
	Keywords
	Abstract	This work covers the problem of 3D reconstruction, recognition and 6DOF pose estimation. The goal of this project is to reconstruct a 3D scene and to align an object model of the industrial pieces onto the reconstructed scene. The reconstruction algorithm is based on stereo techniques and the recognition algorithm is based on SHOT descriptors computed on a set of uniform keypoints. Correspondences are used to estimate a first 6DOF transformation that maps the model onto the scene and then ICP algorithm is used to refine the transformation. In order to check the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, several experiments were performed. These experiments were conducted on a lab environment in order to get results under the same conditions in all of them. Although obtained results are not real time results, the proposed algorithm ends up with high rates of object recognition.
