	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	Textual Descriptions for Browsing People by Visual Apperance.			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2002	Publication	Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	2504	Issue		Pages	419-429
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents a first approach to build colour and structural descriptors for information retrieval on a people database. Queries are formulated in terms of their appearance that allows to seek people wearing specific clothes of a given colour name or texture. Descriptors are automatically computed by following three essential steps. A colour naming labelling from pixel properties. A region seg- mentation step based on colour properties of pixels combined with edge information. And a high level step that models the region arrangements in order to build clothes structure. Results are tested on large set of images from real scenes taken at the entrance desk of a building

	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	Object Image Retrieval by Shape Content in Complex Scenes Using Geometric Constraints			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2005	Publication	Pattern Recognition And Image Analysis	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	3522	Issue		Pages	325–332
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents an image retrieval system based on 2D shape information. Query shape objects and database images are repre- sented by polygonal approximations of their contours. Afterwards they are encoded, using geometric features, in terms of predefined structures. Shapes are then located in database images by a voting procedure on the spatial domain. Then an alignment matching provides a probability value to rank de database image in the retrieval result. The method al- lows to detect a query object in database images even when they contain complex scenes. Also the shape matching tolerates partial occlusions and affine transformations as translation, rotation or scaling.

	Title	Guidelines for choosing optimal parameters of elasticity for snakes			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	1995	Publication	Computer Analysis Of Images And Patterns	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	970	Issue		Pages	106-113
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper proposes a guidance in the process of choosing and using the parameters of elasticity of a snake in order to obtain a precise segmentation. A new two step procedure is defined based on upper and lower bounds on the parameters. Formulas, by which these bounds can be calculated for real images where parts of the contour may be missing, are presented. Experiments on segmentation of bone structures in X-ray images have verified the usefulness of the new procedure.

	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	Challenges in Multi-modal Gesture Recognition			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2017	Publication		Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1-60
	Keywords	Gesture recognition; Time series analysis; Multimodal data analysis; Computer vision; Pattern recognition; Wearable sensors; Infrared cameras; Kinect TMTM
	Abstract	This paper surveys the state of the art on multimodal gesture recognition and introduces the JMLR special topic on gesture recognition 2011–2015. We began right at the start of the Kinect TMTM revolution when inexpensive infrared cameras providing image depth recordings became available. We published papers using this technology and other more conventional methods, including regular video cameras, to record data, thus providing a good overview of uses of machine learning and computer vision using multimodal data in this area of application. Notably, we organized a series of challenges and made available several datasets we recorded for that purpose, including tens of thousands of videos, which are available to conduct further research. We also overview recent state of the art works on gesture recognition based on a proposed taxonomy for gesture recognition, discussing challenges and future lines of research.

	Title	Similarity-Based Object Retrieval Using Appearance and Geometric Feature Combination			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2007	Publication	3rd Iberian Conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis (IbPRIA 2007), J. Marti et al. (Eds.) LNCS 4477:113–120	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	4478	Issue		Pages	33–39
	Keywords
	Abstract	This work presents a content-based image retrieval system of general purpose that deals with cluttered scenes containing a given query object. The system is flexible enough to handle with a single image of an object despite its rotation, translation and scale variations. The image content is divided in parts that are described with a combination of features based on geometrical and color properties. The idea behind the feature combination is to benefit from a fuzzy similarity computation that provides robustness and tolerance to the retrieval process. The features can be independently computed and the image parts can be easily indexed by using a table structure on every feature value. Finally a process inspired in the alignment strategies is used to check the coherence of the object parts found in a scene. Our work presents a system of easy implementation that uses an open set of features and can suit a wide variety of applications.

	Volume	4225	Issue		Pages	178–187
	Keywords
	Abstract	This work tackles the categorization of general linear radial patterns by means of the valleys and ridges detection and the use of descriptors of directional information, which are provided by steerable filters in different regions of the image. We successfully apply our proposal in the specific case of automatic detection of tonic contractions in video capsule endoscopy, which represent a paradigmatic example of linear radial patterns.

	Title	An illumination model of the trachea appearance in videobronchoscopy images			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2012	Publication	Image Analysis and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	7325	Issue		Pages	313-320
	Keywords	Bronchoscopy, tracheal ring, stenosis assesment, trachea appearance model, segmentation
	Abstract	Videobronchoscopy is a medical imaging technique that allows interactive navigation inside the respiratory pathways. This imaging modality provides realistic images and allows non-invasive minimal intervention procedures. Tracheal procedures are routinary interventions that require assessment of the percentage of obstructed pathway for injury (stenosis) detection. Visual assessment in videobronchoscopic sequences requires high expertise of trachea anatomy and is prone to human error. This paper introduces an automatic method for the estimation of steneosed trachea percentage reduction in videobronchoscopic images. We look for tracheal rings , whose deformation determines the degree of obstruction. For ring extraction , we present a ring detector based on an illumination and appearance model. This model allows us to parametrise the ring detection. Finally, we can infer optimal estimation parameters for any video resolution.

	Title	Semantic Segmentation of Urban Scenes via Domain Adaptation of SYNTHIA			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2017	Publication	Domain Adaptation in Computer Vision Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	12	Issue		Pages	227-241
	Keywords	SYNTHIA; Virtual worlds; Autonomous Driving
	Abstract	Vision-based semantic segmentation in urban scenarios is a key functionality for autonomous driving. Recent revolutionary results of deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) foreshadow the advent of reliable classifiers to perform such visual tasks. However, DCNNs require learning of many parameters from raw images; thus, having a sufficient amount of diverse images with class annotations is needed. These annotations are obtained via cumbersome, human labour which is particularly challenging for semantic segmentation since pixel-level annotations are required. In this chapter, we propose to use a combination of a virtual world to automatically generate realistic synthetic images with pixel-level annotations, and domain adaptation to transfer the models learnt to correctly operate in real scenarios. We address the question of how useful synthetic data can be for semantic segmentation – in particular, when using a DCNN paradigm. In order to answer this question we have generated a synthetic collection of diverse urban images, named SYNTHIA, with automatically generated class annotations and object identifiers. We use SYNTHIA in combination with publicly available real-world urban images with manually provided annotations. Then, we conduct experiments with DCNNs that show that combining SYNTHIA with simple domain adaptation techniques in the training stage significantly improves performance on semantic segmentation.

	Title	Inhibition of False Landmarks			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2004	Publication	Recent Advances in Artificial Intelligence Research and Development	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	233-244
	Keywords
	Abstract	We argue that a corner detector should be based on the degree of continuity of the tangent vector to the image level sets, work on the image domain and need no assumptions on neither the image local structure nor the particular geometry of the corner/junction. An operator measuring the degree of differentiability of the projection matrix on the image gradient fulfills the above requirements. Its high sensitivity to changes in vector directions makes it suitable for landmark location in real images prone to need smoothing to reduce the impact of noise. Because using smoothing kernels leads to corner misplacement, we suggest an alternative fake response remover based on the receptive field inhibition of spurious details. The combination of both orientation discontinuity detection and noise inhibition produce our Inhibition Orientation Energy (IOE) landmark locator.

	Title	Anisotropic Feature Extraction from Endoluminal Images for Detection of Intestinal Contractions			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2006	Publication	9th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer–Assisted Intervention	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	4191	Issue		Pages	161–168
	Keywords
	Abstract	Wireless endoscopy is a very recent and at the same time unique technique allowing to visualize and study the occurrence of con- tractions and to analyze the intestine motility. Feature extraction is es- sential for getting efficient patterns to detect contractions in wireless video endoscopy of small intestine. We propose a novel method based on anisotropic image filtering and efficient statistical classification of con- traction features. In particular, we apply the image gradient tensor for mining informative skeletons from the original image and a sequence of descriptors for capturing the characteristic pattern of contractions. Fea- tures extracted from the endoluminal images were evaluated in terms of their discriminatory ability in correct classifying images as either belong- ing to contractions or not. Classification was performed by means of a support vector machine classifier with a radial basis function kernel. Our classification rates gave sensitivity of the order of 90.84% and specificity of the order of 94.43% respectively. These preliminary results highlight the high efficiency of the selected descriptors and support the feasibility of the proposed method in assisting the automatic detection and analysis of contractions.

	Title	Diagnostic System for Intestinal Motility Disfunctions Using Video Capsule Endoscopy			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2008	Publication	Computer Vision Systems. 6th International	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	5008	Issue		Pages	251–260
	Keywords
	Abstract	Wireless Video Capsule Endoscopy is a clinical technique consisting of the analysis of images from the intestine which are pro- vided by an ingestible device with a camera attached to it. In this paper we propose an automatic system to diagnose severe intestinal motility disfunctions using the video endoscopy data. The system is based on the application of computer vision techniques within a machine learn- ing framework in order to obtain the characterization of diverse motil- ity events from video sequences. We present experimental results that demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system and compare them with the ground-truth provided by the gastroenterologists.

	Title	Face Anti-spoofing Progress Driven by Academic Challenges			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2023	Publication	Advances in Face Presentation Attack Detection	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1–15
	Keywords
	Abstract	With the ubiquity of facial authentication systems and the prevalence of security cameras around the world, the impact that facial presentation attack techniques may have is huge. However, research progress in this field has been slowed by a number of factors, including the lack of appropriate and realistic datasets, ethical and privacy issues that prevent the recording and distribution of facial images, the little attention that the community has given to potential ethnic biases among others. This chapter provides an overview of contributions derived from the organization of academic challenges in the context of face anti-spoofing detection. Specifically, we discuss the limitations of benchmarks and summarize our efforts in trying to boost research by the community via the participation in academic challenges
