	Title	Evaluation of Deep Image Descriptors for Texture Retrieval			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2017	Publication	Proceedings of the 12th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications (VISIGRAPP 2017)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	251-257
	Keywords	Texture Representation; Texture Retrieval; Convolutional Neural Networks; Psychophysical Evaluation
	Abstract	The increasing complexity learnt in the layers of a Convolutional Neural Network has proven to be of great help for the task of classification. The topic has received great attention in recently published literature. Nonetheless, just a handful of works study low-level representations, commonly associated with lower layers. In this paper, we explore recent findings which conclude, counterintuitively, the last layer of the VGG convolutional network is the best to describe a low-level property such as texture. To shed some light on this issue, we are proposing a psychophysical experiment to evaluate the adequacy of different layers of the VGG network for texture retrieval. Results obtained suggest that, whereas the last convolutional layer is a good choice for a specific task of classification, it might not be the best choice as a texture descriptor, showing a very poor performance on texture retrieval. Intermediate layers show the best performance, showing a good combination of basic filters, as in the primary visual cortex, and also a degree of higher level information to describe more complex textures.

	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	Names and Shades of Color for Intrinsic Image Estimation			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2012	Publication	25th IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	278-285
	Keywords
	Abstract	In the last years, intrinsic image decomposition has gained attention. Most of the state-of-the-art methods are based on the assumption that reflectance changes come along with strong image edges. Recently, user intervention in the recovery problem has proved to be a remarkable source of improvement. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that aims to overcome the shortcomings of pure edge-based methods by introducing strong surface descriptors, such as the color-name descriptor which introduces high-level considerations resembling top-down intervention. We also use a second surface descriptor, termed color-shade, which allows us to include physical considerations derived from the image formation model capturing gradual color surface variations. Both color cues are combined by means of a Markov Random Field. The method is quantitatively tested on the MIT ground truth dataset using different error metrics, achieving state-of-the-art performance.

	Title	Color-based data augmentation for Reflectance Estimation			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2018	Publication	26th Color Imaging Conference	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	284-289
	Keywords
	Abstract	Deep convolutional architectures have shown to be successful frameworks to solve generic computer vision problems. The estimation of intrinsic reflectance from single image is not a solved problem yet. Encoder-Decoder architectures are a perfect approach for pixel-wise reflectance estimation, although it usually suffers from the lack of large datasets. Lack of data can be partially solved with data augmentation, however usual techniques focus on geometric changes which does not help for reflectance estimation. In this paper we propose a color-based data augmentation technique that extends the training data by increasing the variability of chromaticity. Rotation on the red-green blue-yellow plane of an opponent space enable to increase the training set in a coherent and sound way that improves network generalization capability for reflectance estimation. We perform some experiments on the Sintel dataset showing that our color-based augmentation increase performance and overcomes one of the state-of-the-art methods.

	Title	Intrinsic Image Evaluation On Synthetic Complex Scenes			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2013	Publication	20th IEEE International Conference on Image Processing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	285 - 289
	Keywords
	Abstract	Scene decomposition into its illuminant, shading, and reflectance intrinsic images is an essential step for scene understanding. Collecting intrinsic image groundtruth data is a laborious task. The assumptions on which the ground-truth procedures are based limit their application to simple scenes with a single object taken in the absence of indirect lighting and interreflections. We investigate synthetic data for intrinsic image research since the extraction of ground truth is straightforward, and it allows for scenes in more realistic situations (e.g, multiple illuminants and interreflections). With this dataset we aim to motivate researchers to further explore intrinsic image decomposition in complex scenes.

	Title	Understanding trained CNNs by indexing neuron selectivity			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2020	Publication	Pattern Recognition Letters	Abbreviated Journal	PRL
	Volume	136	Issue		Pages	318-325
	Keywords
	Abstract	The impressive performance of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) when solving different vision problems is shadowed by their black-box nature and our consequent lack of understanding of the representations they build and how these representations are organized. To help understanding these issues, we propose to describe the activity of individual neurons by their Neuron Feature visualization and quantify their inherent selectivity with two specific properties. We explore selectivity indexes for: an image feature (color); and an image label (class membership). Our contribution is a framework to seek or classify neurons by indexing on these selectivity properties. It helps to find color selective neurons, such as a red-mushroom neuron in layer Conv4 or class selective neurons such as dog-face neurons in layer Conv5 in VGG-M, and establishes a methodology to derive other selectivity properties. Indexing on neuron selectivity can statistically draw how features and classes are represented through layers in a moment when the size of trained nets is growing and automatic tools to index neurons can be helpful.

	Title	Color names as a constraint for Computer Vision problems			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2010	Publication	Proceedings of The CREATE 2010 Conference	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	324–328
	Keywords
	Abstract	Computer Vision Problems are usually ill-posed. Constraining de gamut of possible solutions is then a necessary step. Many constrains for different problems have been developed during years. In this paper, we present a different way of constraining some of these problems: the use of color names. In particular, we will focus on segmentation, representation ans constancy.

	Title	Object Recoloring Based on Intrinsic Image Estimation			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2011	Publication	13th IEEE International Conference in Computer Vision	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	327 - 334
	Keywords
	Abstract	Object recoloring is one of the most popular photo-editing tasks. The problem of object recoloring is highly under-constrained, and existing recoloring methods limit their application to objects lit by a white illuminant. Application of these methods to real-world scenes lit by colored illuminants, multiple illuminants, or interreflections, results in unrealistic recoloring of objects. In this paper, we focus on the recoloring of single-colored objects presegmented from their background. The single-color constraint allows us to fit a more comprehensive physical model to the object. We demonstrate that this permits us to perform realistic recoloring of objects lit by non-white illuminants, and multiple illuminants. Moreover, the model allows for more realistic handling of illuminant alteration of the scene. Recoloring results captured by uncalibrated cameras demonstrate that the proposed framework obtains realistic recoloring for complex natural images. Furthermore we use the model to transfer color between objects and show that the results are more realistic than existing color transfer methods.

	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	3D Texton Spaces for color-texture retrieval			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2010	Publication	7th International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	6111	Issue		Pages	354–363
	Keywords
	Abstract	Color and texture are visual cues of different nature, their integration in an useful visual descriptor is not an easy problem. One way to combine both features is to compute spatial texture descriptors independently on each color channel. Another way is to do the integration at the descriptor level. In this case the problem of normalizing both cues arises. In this paper we solve the latest problem by fusing color and texture through distances in texton spaces. Textons are the attributes of image blobs and they are responsible for texture discrimination as defined in Julesz’s Texton theory. We describe them in two low-dimensional and uniform spaces, namely, shape and color. The dissimilarity between color texture images is computed by combining the distances in these two spaces. Following this approach, we propose our TCD descriptor which outperforms current state of art methods in the two different approaches mentioned above, early combination with LBP and late combination with MPEG-7. This is done on an image retrieval experiment over a highly diverse texture dataset from Corel.

	Title	Traffic sign recognition for computer vision project-based learning			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2013	Publication	IEEE Transactions on Education	Abbreviated Journal	T-EDUC
	Volume	56	Issue	3	Pages	364-371
	Keywords	traffic signs
	Abstract	This paper presents a graduate course project on computer vision. The aim of the project is to detect and recognize traffic signs in video sequences recorded by an on-board vehicle camera. This is a demanding problem, given that traffic sign recognition is one of the most challenging problems for driving assistance systems. Equally, it is motivating for the students given that it is a real-life problem. Furthermore, it gives them the opportunity to appreciate the difficulty of real-world vision problems and to assess the extent to which this problem can be solved by modern computer vision and pattern classification techniques taught in the classroom. The learning objectives of the course are introduced, as are the constraints imposed on its design, such as the diversity of students' background and the amount of time they and their instructors dedicate to the course. The paper also describes the course contents, schedule, and how the project-based learning approach is applied. The outcomes of the course are discussed, including both the students' marks and their personal feedback.
