| Title | Non-Verbal Communication Analysis in Victim-Offender Mediations | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | Pattern Recognition Letters | Abbreviated Journal | PRL |

Abstract  |
We present a non-invasive ambient intelligence framework for the semi-automatic analysis of non-verbal communication applied to the restorative justice field. We propose the use of computer vision and social signal processing technologies in real scenarios of Victim–Offender Mediations, applying feature extraction techniques to multi-modal audio-RGB-depth data. We compute a set of behavioral indicators that define communicative cues from the fields of psychology and observational methodology. We test our methodology on data captured in real Victim–Offender Mediation sessions in Catalonia. We define the ground truth based on expert opinions when annotating the observed social responses. Using different state of the art binary classification approaches, our system achieves recognition accuracies of 86% when predicting satisfaction, and 79% when predicting both agreement and receptivity. Applying a regression strategy, we obtain a mean deviation for the predictions between 0.5 and 0.7 in the range [1–5] for the computed social signals. | ||||

| Title | A Feature-Based Gaze Estimation Algorithm for Natural Light Scenarios | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis, Proceedings of 7th Iberian Conference , ibPRIA 2015 | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 9117 | Issue | Pages | 569-576 | |
| Keywords | Eye tracking; Gaze estimation; Natural light; Webcam | ||||
| Abstract |
We present an eye tracking system that works with regular webcams. We base our work on open source CVC Eye Tracker [7] and we propose a number of improvements and a novel gaze estimation method. The new method uses features extracted from iris segmentation and it does not fall into the traditional categorization of appearance–based/model–based methods. Our experiments show that our approach reduces the gaze estimation errors by 34 % in the horizontal direction and by 12 % in the vertical direction compared to the baseline system. | ||||

| Volume | 37 | Issue | 8 | Pages | 1716-1722 |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract |
We propose a meta-parameter free, off-the-shelf, simple and fast unsupervised feature learning algorithm, which exploits a new way of optimizing for sparsity. Experiments on CIFAR-10, STL- 10 and UCMerced show that the method achieves the state-of-theart performance, providing discriminative features that generalize well. | ||||

| Title | FitNets: Hints for Thin Deep Nets | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | 3rd International Conference on Learning Representations ICLR2015 | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | Computer Science ; Learning; Computer Science ;Neural and Evolutionary Computing | ||||
| Abstract |
While depth tends to improve network performances, it also makes gradient-based training more difficult since deeper networks tend to be more non-linear. The recently proposed knowledge distillation approach is aimed at obtaining small and fast-to-execute models, and it has shown that a student network could imitate the soft output of a larger teacher network or ensemble of networks. In this paper, we extend this idea to allow the training of a student that is deeper and thinner than the teacher, using not only the outputs but also the intermediate representations learned by the teacher as hints to improve the training process and final performance of the student. Because the student intermediate hidden layer will generally be smaller than the teacher's intermediate hidden layer, additional parameters are introduced to map the student hidden layer to the prediction of the teacher hidden layer. This allows one to train deeper students that can generalize better or run faster, a trade-off that is controlled by the chosen student capacity. For example, on CIFAR-10, a deep student network with almost 10.4 times less parameters outperforms a larger, state-of-the-art teacher network. | ||||

| Title | MILDE: multiple instance learning by discriminative embedding | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | Knowledge and Information Systems | Abbreviated Journal | KAIS |
| Volume | 42 | Issue | 2 | Pages | 381-407 |
| Keywords | Multi-instance learning; Codebook; Bag of words | ||||
| Abstract |
While the objective of the standard supervised learning problem is to classify feature vectors, in the multiple instance learning problem, the objective is to classify bags, where each bag contains multiple feature vectors. This represents a generalization of the standard problem, and this generalization becomes necessary in many real applications such as drug activity prediction, content-based image retrieval, and others. While the existing paradigms are based on learning the discriminant information either at the instance level or at the bag level, we propose to incorporate both levels of information. This is done by defining a discriminative embedding of the original space based on the responses of cluster-adapted instance classifiers. Results clearly show the advantage of the proposed method over the state of the art, where we tested the performance through a variety of well-known databases that come from real problems, and we also included an analysis of the performance using synthetically generated data. | ||||

| Title | Automatic Tumor Volume Segmentation in Whole-Body PET/CT Scans: A Supervised Learning Approach Source | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | Journal of Medical Imaging and Health Informatics | Abbreviated Journal | JMIHI |

| Abstract |
Whole-body 3D PET/CT tumoral volume segmentation provides relevant diagnostic and prognostic information in clinical oncology and nuclear medicine. Carrying out this procedure manually by a medical expert is time consuming and suffers from inter- and intra-observer variabilities. In this paper, a completely automatic approach to this task is presented. First, the problem is stated and described both in clinical and technological terms. Then, a novel supervised learning segmentation framework is introduced. The segmentation by learning approach is defined within a Cascade of Adaboost classifiers and a 3D contextual proposal of Multiscale Stacked Sequential Learning. Segmentation accuracy results on 200 Breast Cancer whole body PET/CT volumes show mean 49% sensitivity, 99.993% specificity and 39% Jaccard overlap Index, which represent good performance results both at the clinical and technological level. | ||||

| Title | Motility bar: a new tool for motility analysis of endoluminal videos | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | Computers in Biology and Medicine | Abbreviated Journal | CBM |
| Volume | 65 | Issue | Pages | 320-330 | |
| Keywords | Small intestine; Motility; WCE; Computer vision; Image classification | ||||
| Abstract |
Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) provides a new perspective of the small intestine, since it enables, for the first time, visualization of the entire organ. However, the long visual video analysis time, due to the large number of data in a single WCE study, was an important factor impeding the widespread use of the capsule as a tool for intestinal abnormalities detection. Therefore, the introduction of WCE triggered a new field for the application of computational methods, and in particular, of computer vision. In this paper, we follow the computational approach and come up with a new perspective on the small intestine motility problem. Our approach consists of three steps: first, we review a tool for the visualization of the motility information contained in WCE video; second, we propose algorithms for the characterization of two motility building-blocks: contraction detector and lumen size estimation; finally, we introduce an approach to detect segments of stable motility behavior. Our claims are supported by an evaluation performed with 10 WCE videos, suggesting that our methods ably capture the intestinal motility information. | ||||

| Title | Care and caring: future proofing the new demographics | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | 6th International Carers Conference | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract |
With an ageing population, the issue of care provision is becoming increasingly important. The simple aspiration of the majority of older people is to live safely and well at home. Housing will be part of health & care integration in the following years and decades. A higher proportion of people will have to rely on informal care through family, friends, neighbors and others who
provide care to an older person in need of assistance (around 80% of care across the EU). They do not usually have a formal status and are usually unpaid. We need to ensure that all disabled or chronically ill people can get the help they need without overburdening their families. The physical and emotional stress of carers is one of the dangers that this dependency can bring. To prevent carers burnout it is necessary to provide new solutions that are affordable and user friendly for the families and caregivers. |
