  Title Few shots are all you need: A progressive learning approach for low resource handwritten text recognition Type Journal Article
  Year 2022 Publication Pattern Recognition Letters Abbreviated Journal PRL  
  Volume 160 Issue Pages 43-49  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Handwritten text recognition in low resource scenarios, such as manuscripts with rare alphabets, is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a few-shot learning-based handwriting recognition approach that significantly reduces the human annotation process, by requiring only a few images of each alphabet symbols. The method consists of detecting all the symbols of a given alphabet in a textline image and decoding the obtained similarity scores to the final sequence of transcribed symbols. Our model is first pretrained on synthetic line images generated from an alphabet, which could differ from the alphabet of the target domain. A second training step is then applied to reduce the gap between the source and the target data. Since this retraining would require annotation of thousands of handwritten symbols together with their bounding boxes, we propose to avoid such human effort through an unsupervised progressive learning approach that automatically assigns pseudo-labels to the unlabeled data. The evaluation on different datasets shows that our model can lead to competitive results with a significant reduction in human effort. The code will be publicly available in the following repository: https://github.com/dali92002/HTRbyMatching

  Title A Few-shot Learning Approach for Historical Encoded Manuscript Recognition Type Conference Article
  Year 2021 Publication 25th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 5413-5420  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Encoded (or ciphered) manuscripts are a special type of historical documents that contain encrypted text. The automatic recognition of this kind of documents is challenging because: 1) the cipher alphabet changes from one document to another, 2) there is a lack of annotated corpus for training and 3) touching symbols make the symbol segmentation difficult and complex. To overcome these difficulties, we propose a novel method for handwritten ciphers recognition based on few-shot object detection. Our method first detects all symbols of a given alphabet in a line image, and then a decoding step maps the symbol similarity scores to the final sequence of transcribed symbols. By training on synthetic data, we show that the proposed architecture is able to recognize handwritten ciphers with unseen alphabets. In addition, if few labeled pages with the same alphabet are used for fine tuning, our method surpasses existing unsupervised and supervised HTR methods for ciphers recognition.

  Title Modeling, estimation and evaluation of intrinsic images considering color information Type Book Whole
  Year 2015 Publication PhD Thesis, Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona-CVC Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Image values are the result of a combination of visual information coming from multiple sources. Recovering information from the multiple factors thatproduced an image seems a hard and ill-posed problem. However, it is important to observe that humans develop the ability to interpret images and recognize and isolate specific physical properties of the scene.

Images describing a single physical characteristic of an scene are called intrinsic images. These images would benefit most computer vision tasks which are often affected by the multiple complex effects that are usually found in natural images (e.g. cast shadows, specularities, interreflections...).

In this thesis we analyze the problem of intrinsic image estimation from different perspectives, including the theoretical formulation of the problem, the visual cues that can be used to estimate the intrinsic components and the evaluation mechanisms of the problem.

  Title Iterative Multiclass Multiscale Stacked Sequential Learning: definition and application to medical volume segmentation Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Pattern Recognition Letters Abbreviated Journal PRL  
  Volume 46 Issue Pages 1-10  
  Keywords Machine learning; Sequential learning; Multi-class problems; Contextual learning; Medical volume segmentation  
  Abstract In this work we present the iterative multi-class multi-scale stacked sequential learning framework (IMMSSL), a novel learning scheme that is particularly suited for medical volume segmentation applications. This model exploits the inherent voxel contextual information of the structures of interest in order to improve its segmentation performance results. Without any feature set or learning algorithm prior assumption, the proposed scheme directly seeks to learn the contextual properties of a region from the predicted classifications of previous classifiers within an iterative scheme. Performance results regarding segmentation accuracy in three two-class and multi-class medical volume datasets show a significant improvement with respect to state of the art alternatives. Due to its easiness of implementation and its independence of feature space and learning algorithm, the presented machine learning framework could be taken into consideration as a first choice in complex volume segmentation scenarios.

  Title Gate-Shift-Fuse for Video Action Recognition Type Journal Article

  Volume 45 Issue 9 Pages 10913-10928  
  Keywords Action Recognition; Video Classification; Spatial Gating; Channel Fusion  
  Abstract Convolutional Neural Networks are the de facto models for image recognition. However 3D CNNs, the straight forward extension of 2D CNNs for video recognition, have not achieved the same success on standard action recognition benchmarks. One of the main reasons for this reduced performance of 3D CNNs is the increased computational complexity requiring large scale annotated datasets to train them in scale. 3D kernel factorization approaches have been proposed to reduce the complexity of 3D CNNs. Existing kernel factorization approaches follow hand-designed and hard-wired techniques. In this paper we propose Gate-Shift-Fuse (GSF), a novel spatio-temporal feature extraction module which controls interactions in spatio-temporal decomposition and learns to adaptively route features through time and combine them in a data dependent manner. GSF leverages grouped spatial gating to decompose input tensor and channel weighting to fuse the decomposed tensors. GSF can be inserted into existing 2D CNNs to convert them into an efficient and high performing spatio-temporal feature extractor, with negligible parameter and compute overhead. We perform an extensive analysis of GSF using two popular 2D CNN families and achieve state-of-the-art or competitive performance on five standard action recognition benchmarks.

  Title Learning to Recognize Actions on Objects in Egocentric Video with Attention Dictionaries Type Journal Article
  Year 2021 Publication IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence Abbreviated Journal TPAMI  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract We present EgoACO, a deep neural architecture for video action recognition that learns to pool action-context-object descriptors from frame level features by leveraging the verb-noun structure of action labels in egocentric video datasets. The core component of EgoACO is class activation pooling (CAP), a differentiable pooling operation that combines ideas from bilinear pooling for fine-grained recognition and from feature learning for discriminative localization. CAP uses self-attention with a dictionary of learnable weights to pool from the most relevant feature regions. Through CAP, EgoACO learns to decode object and scene context descriptors from video frame features. For temporal modeling in EgoACO, we design a recurrent version of class activation pooling termed Long Short-Term Attention (LSTA). LSTA extends convolutional gated LSTM with built-in spatial attention and a re-designed output gate. Action, object and context descriptors are fused by a multi-head prediction that accounts for the inter-dependencies between noun-verb-action structured labels in egocentric video datasets. EgoACO features built-in visual explanations, helping learning and interpretation. Results on the two largest egocentric action recognition datasets currently available, EPIC-KITCHENS and EGTEA, show that by explicitly decoding action-context-object descriptors, EgoACO achieves state-of-the-art recognition performance.

  Title Gate-Shift Networks for Video Action Recognition Type Conference Article
  Year 2020 Publication 33rd IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Deep 3D CNNs for video action recognition are designed to learn powerful representations in the joint spatio-temporal feature space. In practice however, because of the large number of parameters and computations involved, they may under-perform in the lack of sufficiently large datasets for training them at scale. In this paper we introduce spatial gating in spatial-temporal decomposition of 3D kernels. We implement this concept with Gate-Shift Module (GSM). GSM is lightweight and turns a 2D-CNN into a highly efficient spatio-temporal feature extractor. With GSM plugged in, a 2D-CNN learns to adaptively route features through time and combine them, at almost no additional parameters and computational overhead. We perform an extensive evaluation of the proposed module to study its effectiveness in video action recognition, achieving state-of-the-art results on Something Something-V1 and Diving48 datasets, and obtaining competitive results on EPIC-Kitchens with far less model complexity.

  Title LSTA: Long Short-Term Attention for Egocentric Action Recognition Type Conference Article
  Year 2019 Publication 32nd IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 9946-9955  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Egocentric activity recognition is one of the most challenging tasks in video analysis. It requires a fine-grained discrimination of small objects and their manipulation. While some methods base on strong supervision and attention mechanisms, they are either annotation consuming or do not take spatio-temporal patterns into account. In this paper we propose LSTA as a mechanism to focus on features from spatial relevant parts while attention is being tracked smoothly across the video sequence. We demonstrate the effectiveness of LSTA on egocentric activity recognition with an end-to-end trainable two-stream architecture, achieving state-of-the-art performance on four standard benchmarks.

  Title Contributions to the Diagnosis of Intestinal Motility by Automatic Image Analysis Type Book Whole
  Year 2011 Publication PhD Thesis, Universitat de Barcelona-CVC Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In the early twenty first century Given Imaging Ltd. presented wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) as a new technological breakthrough that allowed the visualization of
the intestine by using a small, swallowed camera. This small size device was received
with a high enthusiasm within the medical community, and until now, it is still one
of the medical devices with the highest use growth rate. WCE can be used as a novel
diagnostic tool that presents several clinical advantages, since it is non-invasive and
at the same time it provides, for the first time, a full picture of the small bowel morphology, contents and dynamics. Since its appearance, the WCE has been used to
detect several intestinal dysfunctions such as: polyps, ulcers and bleeding. However,
the visual analysis of WCE videos presents an important drawback: the long time
required by the physicians for proper video visualization. In this sense and regarding
to this limitation, the development of computer aided systems is required for the extensive use of WCE in the medical community.
The work presented in this thesis is a set of contributions for the automatic image
analysis and computer-aided diagnosis of intestinal motility disorders using WCE.
Until now, the diagnosis of small bowel motility dysfunctions was basically performed
by invasive techniques such as the manometry test, which can only be conducted at
some referral centers around the world owing to the complexity of the procedure and
the medial expertise required in the interpretation of the results.
Our contributions are divided in three main blocks:
1. Image analysis by computer vision techniques to detect events in the endoluminal WCE scene. Several methods have been proposed to detect visual events
such as: intestinal contractions, intestinal content, tunnel and wrinkles;
2. Machine learning techniques for the analysis and the manipulation of the data
from WCE. These methods have been proposed in order to overcome the problems that the analysis of WCE presents such as: video acquisition cost, unlabeled data and large number of data;
3. Two different systems for the computer-aided diagnosis of intestinal motility
disorders using WCE. The first system presents a fully automatic method that
aids at discriminating healthy subjects from patients with severe intestinal motor disorders like pseudo-obstruction or food intolerance. The second system presents another automatic method that models healthy subjects and discriminate them from mild intestinal motility patients.
