  Title A PBL Experience in the Teaching of Computer Graphics Type Conference Article
  Year 2007 Publication XVII Congreso Español de Informàtica Gráfica Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 25 Issue 1 Pages 95-103  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Project-Based Learning (PBL) is an educational strategy to improve student’s learning capability that, in recent years, has had a progressive acceptance in undergraduate studies. This methodology is based on solving a problem or project in a student working group. In this way, PBL focuses on learning the necessary tools to correctly find a solution to given problems. Since the learning initiative is transferred to the student, the PBL method promotes students own abilities. This allows a better assessment of the true workload that carries out the student in the subject. It follows that the methodology conforms to the guidelines of the Bologna document, which quantifies the student workload in a subject by means of the European credit transfer system (ECTS). PBL is currently applied in undergraduate studies needing strong practical training such as medicine, nursing or law sciences. Although this is also the case in engineering studies, amazingly, few experiences have been reported. In this paper we propose to use PBL in the educational organization of the Computer Graphics subjects in the Computer Science degree. Our PBL project focuses in the development of a C++ graphical environment based on the OpenGL libraries for visualization and handling of different graphical objects. The starting point is a basic skeleton that already includes lighting functions, perspective projection with mouse interaction to change the point of view and three predefined objects. Students have to complete this skeleton by adding their own functions to solve the project. A total number of 10 projects have been proposed and successfully solved. The exercises range from human face rendering to articulated objects, such as robot arms or puppets. In the present paper we extensively report the statement and educational objectives for two of the projects: solar system visualization and a chess game. We report our earlier educational experience based on the standard classroom theoretical, problem and practice sessions and the reasons that motivated searching for other learning methods. We have mainly chosen PBL because it improves the student learning initiative. We have applied the PBL educational model since the beginning of the second semester. The student’s feedback increases in his interest for the subject. We present a comparative study of the teachers’ and students’ workload between PBL and the classic teaching approach, which suggests that the workload increase in PBL is not as high as it seems.

  Title What is constant in colour constancy? Type Conference Article
  Year 2012 Publication 6th European Conference on Colour in Graphics, Imaging and Vision Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 337-343  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Color constancy refers to the ability of the human visual system to stabilize
the color appearance of surfaces under an illuminant change. In this work we studied how the interrelations among nine colors are perceived under illuminant changes, particularly whether they remain stable across 10 different conditions (5 illuminants and 2 backgrounds). To do so we have used a paradigm that measures several colors under an immersive state of adaptation. From our measures we defined a perceptual structure descriptor that is up to 87% stable over all conditions, suggesting that color category features could be used to predict color constancy. This is in agreement with previous results on the stability of border categories [1,2] and with computational color constancy
algorithms [3] for estimating the scene illuminant.

  Title Color Edge Saliency Boosting using Natural Image Statistics Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 5th European Conference on Colour in Graphics, Imaging and Vision and 12th International Symposium on Multispectral Colour Science Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 228–234  
  Keywords  
  Abstract State of the art methods for image matching, content-based retrieval and recognition use local features. Most of these still exploit only the luminance information for detection. The color saliency boosting algorithm has provided an efficient method to exploit the saliency of color edges based on information theory. However, during the design of this algorithm, some issues were not addressed in depth: (1) The method has ignored the underlying distribution of derivatives in natural images. (2) The dependence of information content in color-boosted edges on its spatial derivatives has not been quantitatively established. (3) To evaluate luminance and color contributions to saliency of edges, a parameter gradually balancing both contributions is required.
We introduce a novel algorithm, based on the principles of independent component analysis, which models the first order derivatives of color natural images by a generalized Gaussian distribution. Furthermore, using this probability model we show that for images with a Laplacian distribution, which is a particular case of generalized Gaussian distribution, the magnitudes of color-boosted edges reflect their corresponding information content. In order to evaluate the impact of color edge saliency in real world applications, we introduce an extension of the Laplacian-of-Gaussian detector to color, and the performance for image matching is evaluated. Our experiments show that our approach provides more discriminative regions in comparison with the original detector.

  Title Local Perceptual Weighting in JPEG2000 for Color Images Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 5th European Conference on Colour in Graphics, Imaging and Vision and 12th International Symposium on Multispectral Colour Science Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 255–260  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The aim of this work is to explain how to apply perceptual concepts to define a perceptual pre-quantizer and to improve JPEG2000 compressor. The approach consists in quantizing wavelet transform coefficients using some of the human visual system behavior properties. Noise is fatal to image compression performance, because it can be both annoying for the observer and consumes excessive bandwidth when the imagery is transmitted. Perceptual pre-quantization reduces unperceivable details and thus improve both visual impression and transmission properties. The comparison between JPEG2000 without and with perceptual pre-quantization shows that the latter is not favorable in PSNR, but the recovered image is more compressed at the same or even better visual quality measured with a weighted PSNR. Perceptual criteria were taken from the CIWaM (Chromatic Induction Wavelet Model).

  Title Accurate Mapping of Natural Scenes Radiance to Cone Activation Space: A New Image Dataset Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 5th European Conference on Colour in Graphics, Imaging and Vision and 12th International Symposium on Multispectral Colour Science Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 50–57  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The characterization of trichromatic cameras is usually done in terms of a device-independent color space, such as the CIE 1931 XYZ space. This is indeed convenient since it allows the testing of results against colorimetric measures. We have characterized our camera to represent human cone activation by mapping the camera sensor's (RGB) responses to human (LMS) through a polynomial transformation, which can be “customized” according to the types of scenes we want to represent. Here we present a method to test the accuracy of the camera measures and a study on how the choice of training reflectances for the polynomial may alter the results.

  Title A compact singularity function to predict WCS data and unique hues Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 5th European Conference on Colour in Graphics, Imaging and Vision and 12th International Symposium on Multispectral Colour Science Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 33–38  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Understanding how colour is used by the human vision system is a widely studied research field. The field, though quite advanced, still faces important unanswered questions. One of them is the explanation of the unique hues and the assignment of color names. This problem addresses the fact of different perceptual status for different colors.
Recently, Philipona and O'Regan have proposed a biological model that allows to extract the reflection properties of any surface independently of the lighting conditions. These invariant properties are the basis to compute a singularity index that predicts the asymmetries presented in unique hues and basic color categories psychophysical data, therefore is giving a further step in their explanation.

In this paper we build on their formulation and propose a new singularity index. This new formulation equally accounts for the location of the 4 peaks of the World colour survey and has two main advantages. First, it is a simple elegant numerical measure (the Philipona measurement is a rather cumbersome formula). Second, we develop a colour-based explanation for the measure.

  Title Domain Adaptation in Image Dehazing: Exploring the Usage of Images from Virtual Scenarios Type Conference Article
  Year 2022 Publication 16th International Conference on Computer Graphics, Visualization, Computer Vision and Image Processing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 85-92  
  Keywords Domain adaptation; Synthetic hazed dataset; Dehazing  
  Abstract This work presents a novel domain adaptation strategy for deep learning-based approaches to solve the image dehazing
problem. Firstly, a large set of synthetic images is generated by using a realistic 3D graphic simulator; these synthetic
images contain different densities of haze, which are used for training the model that is later adapted to any real scenario.
The adaptation process requires just a few images to fine-tune the model parameters. The proposed strategy allows
overcoming the limitation of training a given model with few images. In other words, the proposed strategy implements
the adaptation of a haze removal model trained with synthetic images to real scenarios. It should be noticed that it is quite
difficult, if not impossible, to have large sets of pairs of real-world images (with and without haze) to train in a supervised
way dehazing algorithms. Experimental results are provided showing the validity of the proposed domain adaptation
strategy.

  Title Graph of Words Embedding for Molecular Structure-Activity Relationship Analysis Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 15th Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 6419 Issue Pages 30–37  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Structure-Activity relationship analysis aims at discovering chemical activity of molecular compounds based on their structure. In this article we make use of a particular graph representation of molecules and propose a new graph embedding procedure to solve the problem of structure-activity relationship analysis. The embedding is essentially an arrangement of a molecule in the form of a vector by considering frequencies of appearing atoms and frequencies of covalent bonds between them. Results on two benchmark databases show the effectiveness of the proposed technique in terms of recognition accuracy while avoiding high operational costs in the transformation.

  Title Sketchable Histograms of Oriented Gradients for Object Detection Type Conference Article
  Year 2012 Publication 17th Iberomerican Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 7441 Issue Pages 374-381  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In this paper we investigate a new representation approach for visual object recognition. The new representation, called sketchable-HoG, extends the classical histogram of oriented gradients (HoG) feature by adding two different aspects: the stability of the majority orientation and the continuity of gradient orientations. In this way, the sketchable-HoG locally characterizes the complexity of an object model and introduces global structure information while still keeping simplicity, compactness and robustness. We evaluated the proposed image descriptor on publicly Catltech 101 dataset. The obtained results outperforms classical HoG descriptor as well as other reported descriptors in the literature.
