Title Overcoming Calibration Problems in Pattern Labeling with Pairwise Ratings: Application to Personality Traits Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 14th European Conference on Computer Vision Workshops Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords Calibration of labels; Label bias; Ordinal labeling; Variance Models; Bradley-Terry-Luce model; Continuous labels; Regression; Personality traits; Crowd-sourced labels
Abstract We address the problem of calibration of workers whose task is to label patterns with continuous variables, which arises for instance in labeling images of videos of humans with continuous traits. Worker bias is particularly dicult to evaluate and correct when many workers contribute just a few labels, a situation arising typically when labeling is crowd-sourced. In the scenario of labeling short videos of people facing a camera with personality traits, we evaluate the feasibility of the pairwise ranking method to alleviate bias problems. Workers are exposed to pairs of videos at a time and must order by preference. The variable levels are reconstructed by fitting a Bradley-Terry-Luce model with maximum likelihood. This method may at first sight, seem prohibitively expensive because for N videos, p = N (N-1)/2 pairs must be potentially processed by workers rather that N videos. However, by performing extensive simulations, we determine an empirical law for the scaling of the number of pairs needed as a function of the number of videos in order to achieve a given accuracy of score reconstruction and show that the pairwise method is a ordable. We apply the method to the labeling of a large scale dataset of 10,000 videos used in the ChaLearn Apparent Personality Trait challenge.

Title Simultaneous Food Localization and Recognition Type Conference Article

Volume Issue Pages (up)

Abstract CoRR abs/1604.07953
The development of automatic nutrition diaries, which would allow to keep track objectively of everything we eat, could enable a whole new world of possibilities for people concerned about their nutrition patterns. With this purpose, in this paper we propose the first method for simultaneous food localization and recognition. Our method is based on two main steps, which consist in, first, produce a food activation map on the input image (i.e. heat map of probabilities) for generating bounding boxes proposals and, second, recognize each of the food types or food-related objects present in each bounding box. We demonstrate that our proposal, compared to the most similar problem nowadays – object localization, is able to obtain high precision and reasonable recall levels with only a few bounding boxes. Furthermore, we show that it is applicable to both conventional and egocentric images.

Title With Whom Do I Interact? Detecting Social Interactions in Egocentric Photo-streams Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 23rd International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords
Abstract Given a user wearing a low frame rate wearable camera during a day, this work aims to automatically detect the moments when the user gets engaged into a social interaction solely by reviewing the automatically captured photos by the worn camera. The proposed method, inspired by the sociological concept of F-formation, exploits distance and orientation of the appearing individuals -with respect to the user- in the scene from a bird-view perspective. As a result, the interaction pattern over the sequence can be understood as a two-dimensional time series that corresponds to the temporal evolution of the distance and orientation features over time. A Long-Short Term Memory-based Recurrent Neural Network is then trained to classify each time series. Experimental evaluation over a dataset of 30.000 images has shown promising results on the proposed method for social interaction detection in egocentric photo-streams.

Title Can a CNN Recognize Catalan Diet? Type Book Chapter
Year 2016 Publication AIP Conference Proceedings Abbreviated Journal
Volume 1773 Issue Pages (up)
Keywords
Abstract CoRR abs/1607.08811
Nowadays, we can find several diseases related to the unhealthy diet habits of the population, such as diabetes, obesity, anemia, bulimia and anorexia. In many cases, these diseases are related to the food consumption of people. Mediterranean diet is scientifically known as a healthy diet that helps to prevent many metabolic diseases. In particular, our work focuses on the recognition of Mediterranean food and dishes. The development of this methodology would allow to analise the daily habits of users with wearable cameras, within the topic of lifelogging. By using automatic mechanisms we could build an objective tool for the analysis of the patient’s behavior, allowing specialists to discover unhealthy food patterns and understand the user’s lifestyle.
With the aim to automatically recognize a complete diet, we introduce a challenging multi-labeled dataset related to Mediter-ranean diet called FoodCAT. The first type of label provided consists of 115 food classes with an average of 400 images per dish, and the second one consists of 12 food categories with an average of 3800 pictures per class. This dataset will serve as a basis for the development of automatic diet recognition. In this context, deep learning and more specifically, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), currently are state-of-the-art methods for automatic food recognition. In our work, we compare several architectures for image classification, with the purpose of diet recognition. Applying the best model for recognising food categories, we achieve a top-1 accuracy of 72.29%, and top-5 of 97.07%. In a complete diet recognition of dishes from Mediterranean diet, enlarged with the Food-101 dataset for international dishes recognition, we achieve a top-1 accuracy of 68.07%, and top-5 of 89.53%, for a total of 115+101 food classes.

Title Fusion of Classifier Predictions for Audio-Visual Emotion Recognition Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 23rd International Conference on Pattern Recognition Workshops Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords
Abstract In this paper is presented a novel multimodal emotion recognition system which is based on the analysis of audio and visual cues. MFCC-based features are extracted from the audio channel and facial landmark geometric relations are
computed from visual data. Both sets of features are learnt separately using state-of-the-art classifiers. In addition, we summarise each emotion video into a reduced set of key-frames, which are learnt in order to visually discriminate emotions by means of a Convolutional Neural Network. Finally, confidence
outputs of all classifiers from all modalities are used to define a new feature space to be learnt for final emotion prediction, in a late fusion/stacking fashion. The conducted experiments on eNTERFACE’05 database show significant performance improvements of our proposed system in comparison to state-of-the-art approaches.

Title Spatiotemporal Facial Super-Pixels for Pain Detection Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 9th Conference on Articulated Motion and Deformable Objects Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords Facial images; Super-pixels; Spatiotemporal filters; Pain detection
Abstract Best student paper award.
Pain detection using facial images is of critical importance in many Health applications. Since pain is a spatiotemporal process, recent works on this topic employ facial spatiotemporal features to detect pain. These systems extract such features from the entire area of the face. In this paper, we show that by employing super-pixels we can divide the face into three regions, in a way that only one of these regions (about one third of the face) contributes to the pain estimation and the other two regions can be discarded. The experimental results on the UNBCMcMaster database show that the proposed system using this single region outperforms state-of-the-art systems in detecting no-pain scenarios, while it reaches comparable results in detecting weak and severe pain scenarios.

Title ChaLearn Looking at People and Faces of the World: Face AnalysisWorkshop and Challenge 2016 Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 29th IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords
Abstract We present the 2016 ChaLearn Looking at People and Faces of the World Challenge and Workshop, which ran three competitions on the common theme of face analysis from still images. The first one, Looking at People, addressed age estimation, while the second and third competitions, Faces of the World, addressed accessory classification and smile and gender classification, respectively. We present two crowd-sourcing methodologies used to collect manual annotations. A custom-build application was used to collect and label data about the apparent age of people (as opposed to the real age). For the Faces of the World data, the citizen-science Zooniverse platform was used. This paper summarizes the three challenges and the data used, as well as the results achieved by the participants of the competitions. Details of the ChaLearn LAP FotW competitions can be found at http://gesture.chalearn.org.

Title Stable Airway Center Tracking for Bronchoscopic Navigation Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 28th Conference of the international Society for Medical Innovation and Technology Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords
Abstract Bronchoscopists use X‐ray fluoroscopy to guide bronchoscopes to the lesion to be biopsied without any kind of incisions. Reducing exposure to X‐ray is important for both patients and doctors but alternatives like electromagnetic navigation require specific equipment and increase the cost of the clinical procedure. We propose a guiding system based on the extraction of airway centers from intra‐operative videos. Such anatomical landmarks could be
matched to the airway centerline extracted from a pre‐planned CT to indicate the best path to the lesion. We present an extraction of lumen centers
from intra‐operative videos based on tracking of maximal stable regions of energy maps.

Title Care Respite: a remote monitoring eHealth system for improving ambient assisted living Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication Human Motion Analysis for Healthcare Applications Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (up)
Keywords
Abstract Advances in technology that capture human motion have been quite remarkable during the last five years. New sensors have been developed, such as the Microsoft Kinect, Asus Xtion Pro live, PrimeSense Carmine and Leap Motion. Their main advantages are their non-intrusive nature, low cost and widely available support for developers offered by large corporations or Open Communities. Although they were originally developed for computer games, they have inspired numerous healthcare related ideas and projects in areas such as Medical Disorder Diagnosis, Assisted Living, Rehabilitation and Surgery.

In Assisted Living, human motion analysis allows continuous monitoring of elderly and vulnerable people and their activities to potentially detect life-threatening events such as falls. Human motion analysis in rehabilitation provides the opportunity for motivating patients through gamification, evaluating prescribed programmes of exercises and assessing patients’ progress. In operating theatres, surgeons may use a gesture-based interface to access medical information or control a tele-surgery system. Human motion analysis may also be used to diagnose a range of mental and physical diseases and conditions.

This event will discuss recent advances in human motion sensing and provide an application to healthcare for networking and exploring potential synergies and collaborations.
