  Title From 2D to 3D geodesic-based garment matching Type Journal Article
  Year 2019 Publication Multimedia Tools and Applications Abbreviated Journal MTAP  
  Volume 78 Issue 18 Pages 25829–25853  
  Keywords Shape matching; Geodesic distance; Texture mapping; RGBD image processing; Gaussian mixture model  
  Abstract A new approach for 2D to 3D garment retexturing is proposed based on Gaussian mixture models and thin plate splines (TPS). An automatically segmented garment of an individual is matched to a new source garment and rendered, resulting in augmented images in which the target garment has been retextured using the texture of the source garment. We divide the problem into garment boundary matching based on Gaussian mixture models and then interpolate inner points using surface topology extracted through geodesic paths, which leads to a more realistic result than standard approaches. We evaluated and compared our system quantitatively by root mean square error (RMS) and qualitatively using the mean opinion score (MOS), showing the benefits of the proposed methodology on our gathered dataset.

  Title Rendering ground truth data sets to detect shadows cast by static objects in outdoors Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Multimedia Tools and Applications Abbreviated Journal MTAP  
  Volume 70 Issue 1 Pages 557-571  
  Keywords Synthetic ground truth data set; Sun position; Shadow detection; Static objects shadow detection  
  Abstract In our work, we are particularly interested in studying the shadows cast by static objects in outdoor environments, during daytime. To assess the accuracy of a shadow detection algorithm, we need ground truth information. The collection of such information is a very tedious task because it is a process that requires manual annotation. To overcome this severe limitation, we propose in this paper a methodology to automatically render ground truth using a virtual environment. To increase the degree of realism and usefulness of the simulated environment, we incorporate in the scenario the precise longitude, latitude and elevation of the actual location of the object, as well as the sun’s position for a given time and day. To evaluate our method, we consider a qualitative and a quantitative comparison. In the quantitative one, we analyze the shadow cast by a real object in a particular geographical location and its corresponding rendered model. To evaluate qualitatively the methodology, we use some ground truth images obtained both manually and automatically.

  Title Inferring competitive role patterns in reality TV show through nonverbal analysis Type Journal Article
  Year 2012 Publication Multimedia Tools and Applications Abbreviated Journal MTAP  
  Volume 56 Issue 1 Pages 207-226  
  Keywords  
  Abstract This paper introduces a new facet of social media, namely that depicting social interaction. More concretely, we address this problem from the perspective of nonverbal behavior-based analysis of competitive meetings. For our study, we made use of “The Apprentice” reality TV show, which features a competition for a real, highly paid corporate job. Our analysis is centered around two tasks regarding a person's role in a meeting: predicting the person with the highest status, and predicting the fired candidates. We address this problem by adopting both supervised and unsupervised strategies. The current study was carried out using nonverbal audio cues. Our approach is based only on the nonverbal interaction dynamics during the meeting without relying on the spoken words. The analysis is based on two types of data: individual and relational measures. Results obtained from the analysis of a full season of the show are promising (up to 85.7% of accuracy in the first case and up to 92.8% in the second case). Our approach has been conveniently compared with the Influence Model, demonstrating its superiority.

  Title A Novel Deep Network Architecture for Reconstructing RGB Facial Images from Thermal for Face Recognition Type Journal Article
  Year 2019 Publication Multimedia Tools and Applications Abbreviated Journal MTAP  
  Volume 78 Issue 18 Pages 25259–25271  
  Keywords Fully convolutional networks; FusionNet; Thermal imaging; Face recognition  
  Abstract This work proposes a fully convolutional network architecture for RGB face image generation from a given input thermal face image to be applied in face recognition scenarios. The proposed method is based on the FusionNet architecture and increases robustness against overfitting using dropout after bridge connections, randomised leaky ReLUs (RReLUs), and orthogonal regularization. Furthermore, we propose to use a decoding block with resize convolution instead of transposed convolution to improve final RGB face image generation. To validate our proposed network architecture, we train a face classifier and compare its face recognition rate on the reconstructed RGB images from the proposed architecture, to those when reconstructing images with the original FusionNet, as well as when using the original RGB images. As a result, we are introducing a new architecture which leads to a more accurate network.
