Title Recurso docente para la atención de la diversidad en el aula mediante la predicción de notas Type Journal
Year 2016 Publication ReVision Abbreviated Journal
Volume 9 Issue 1 Pages (down)
Keywords Aprendizaje automatico; Sistema de prediccion de notas; Herramienta docente
Abstract Desde la implantación del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (EEES) en los diferentes grados, se ha puesto de manifiesto la necesidad de utilizar diversos mecanismos que permitan tratar la diversidad en el aula, evaluando automáticamente y proporcionando una retroalimentación rápida tanto al alumnado como al profesorado sobre la evolución de los alumnos en una asignatura. En este artículo se presenta la evaluación de la exactitud en las predicciones de GRADEFORESEER, un recurso docente para la predicción de notas basado en técnicas de aprendizaje automático que permite evaluar la evolución del alumnado y estimar su nota final al terminar el curso. Este recurso se ha complementado con una interfaz de usuario para el profesorado que puede ser usada en diferentes plataformas software (sistemas operativos) y en cualquier asignatura de un grado en la que se utilice evaluación continuada. Además de la descripción del recurso, este artículo presenta los resultados obtenidos al aplicar el sistema de predicción en cuatro asignaturas de disciplinas distintas: Programación I (PI), Diseño de Software (DSW) del grado de Ingeniería Informática, Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) del grado de Lingüística y la asignatura Fundamentos de Tecnología (FDT) del grado de Información y Documentación, todas ellas impartidas en la Universidad de Barcelona.

La capacidad predictiva se ha evaluado de forma binaria (aprueba o no) y según un criterio de rango (suspenso, aprobado, notable o sobresaliente), obteniendo mejores predicciones en los resultados evaluados de forma binaria.

Title Learning the Lumen Border using a Convolutional Neural Networks classifier Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 19th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention Workshop Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (down)
Keywords
Abstract IntraVascular UltraSound (IVUS) is a technique allowing the diagnosis of coronary plaque. An accurate (semi-)automatic assessment of the luminal contours could speed up the diagnosis. In most of the approaches, the information on the vessel shape is obtained combining a supervised learning step with a local refinement algorithm. In this paper, we explore for the first time, the use of a Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) architecture that on one hand is able to extract the optimal image features and at the same time can serve as a supervised classifier to detect the lumen border in IVUS images. The main limitation of CNN, relies on the fact that this technique requires a large amount of training data due to the huge amount of parameters that it has. To
solve this issue, we introduce a patch classification approach to generate an extended training-set from a few annotated images. An accuracy of 93% and F-score of 71% was obtained with this technique, even when it was applied to challenging frames containig calcified plaques, stents and catheter shadows.

Title Improving Text Proposals for Scene Images with Fully Convolutional Networks Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 23rd International Conference on Pattern Recognition Workshops Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (down)
Keywords
Abstract Text Proposals have emerged as a class-dependent version of object proposals – efficient approaches to reduce the search space of possible text object locations in an image. Combined with strong word classifiers, text proposals currently yield top state of the art results in end-to-end scene text
recognition. In this paper we propose an improvement over the original Text Proposals algorithm of [1], combining it with Fully Convolutional Networks to improve the ranking of proposals. Results on the ICDAR RRC and the COCO-text datasets show superior performance over current state-of-the-art.

Title ChaLearn Joint Contest on Multimedia Challenges Beyond Visual Analysis: An Overview Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 23rd International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages (down)
Keywords
Abstract This paper provides an overview of the Joint Contest on Multimedia Challenges Beyond Visual Analysis. We organized an academic competition that focused on four problems that require effective processing of multimodal information in order to be solved. Two tracks were devoted to gesture spotting and recognition from RGB-D video, two fundamental problems for human computer interaction. Another track was devoted to a second round of the first impressions challenge of which the goal was to develop methods to recognize personality traits from
short video clips. For this second round we adopted a novel collaborative-competitive (i.e., coopetition) setting. The fourth track was dedicated to the problem of video recommendation for improving user experience. The challenge was open for about 45 days, and received outstanding participation: almost
200 participants registered to the contest, and 20 teams sent predictions in the final stage. The main goals of the challenge were fulfilled: the state of the art was advanced considerably in the four tracks, with novel solutions to the proposed problems (mostly relying on deep learning). However, further research is still required. The data of the four tracks will be available to
allow researchers to keep making progress in the four tracks.

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 (down)
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.

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 (down)
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 (down)
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 (down)
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 (down)
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.
