	Title	Visible-Thermal Fusion based Monocular Visual Odometry			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2015	Publication	2nd Iberian Robotics Conference ROBOT2015	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	417	Issue		Pages	517-528
	Keywords	Monocular Visual Odometry; LWIR-RGB cross-spectral Imaging; Image Fusion.
	Abstract	The manuscript evaluates the performance of a monocular visual odometry approach when images from different spectra are considered, both independently and fused. The objective behind this evaluation is to analyze if classical approaches can be improved when the given images, which are from different spectra, are fused and represented in new domains. The images in these new domains should have some of the following properties: i) more robust to noisy data; ii) less sensitive to changes (e.g., lighting); iii) more rich in descriptive information, among other. In particular in the current work two different image fusion strategies are considered. Firstly, images from the visible and thermal spectrum are fused using a Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) approach. Secondly, a monochrome threshold strategy is considered. The obtained representations are evaluated under a visual odometry framework, highlighting their advantages and disadvantages, using different urban and semi-urban scenarios. Comparisons with both monocular-visible spectrum and monocular-infrared spectrum, are also provided showing the validity of the proposed approach.

	Title	An improved model of snakes for model-based segmentation			Type	Conference Article
	Year	1995	Publication	Proceedings of Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	515-520
	Keywords
	Abstract	The main advantage of segmentation by snakes consists in its ability to incorporate smoothness constraints on the detected shapes that can occur. Likewise, we propose to model snakes with other properties that reflect the information provided about the object of interest in a different extent. We consider different kinds of snakes, those searching for contours with a certain direction, those preserving an object’s model, those seeking for symmetry, those expanding open, etc. The availability of such a collection of snakes allows not only the more complete use of the knowledge about the segmented object, but also to solve some problems of the existing snakes. Our experiments on segmentation of facial features justify the usefulness of snakes with different properties.

	Title	Multi-oriented scene text detection in video based on wavelet and angle projection boundary growing			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2014	Publication	Multimedia Tools and Applications	Abbreviated Journal	MTAP
	Volume	72	Issue	1	Pages	515-539
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this paper, we address two complex issues: 1) Text frame classification and 2) Multi-oriented text detection in video text frame. We first divide a video frame into 16 blocks and propose a combination of wavelet and median-moments with k-means clustering at the block level to identify probable text blocks. For each probable text block, the method applies the same combination of feature with k-means clustering over a sliding window running through the blocks to identify potential text candidates. We introduce a new idea of symmetry on text candidates in each block based on the observation that pixel distribution in text exhibits a symmetric pattern. The method integrates all blocks containing text candidates in the frame and then all text candidates are mapped on to a Sobel edge map of the original frame to obtain text representatives. To tackle the multi-orientation problem, we present a new method called Angle Projection Boundary Growing (APBG) which is an iterative algorithm and works based on a nearest neighbor concept. APBG is then applied on the text representatives to fix the bounding box for multi-oriented text lines in the video frame. Directional information is used to eliminate false positives. Experimental results on a variety of datasets such as non-horizontal, horizontal, publicly available data (Hua’s data) and ICDAR-03 competition data (camera images) show that the proposed method outperforms existing methods proposed for video and the state of the art methods for scene text as well.

	Title	Multi-Modal Aerial View Image Challenge: Translation From Synthetic Aperture Radar to Electro-Optical Domain Results-PBVS 2023			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2023	Publication	Proceedings of the IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	515-523
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper unveils the discoveries and outcomes of the inaugural iteration of the Multi-modal Aerial View Image Challenge (MAVIC) aimed at image translation. The primary objective of this competition is to stimulate research efforts towards the development of models capable of translating co-aligned images between multiple modalities. To accomplish the task of image translation, the competition utilizes images obtained from both synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and electro-optical (EO) sources. Specifically, the challenge centers on the translation from the SAR modality to the EO modality, an area of research that has garnered attention. The inaugural challenge demonstrates the feasibility of the task. The dataset utilized in this challenge is derived from the UNIfied COincident Optical and Radar for recognitioN (UNICORN) dataset. We introduce an new version of the UNICORN dataset that is focused on enabling the sensor translation task. Performance evaluation is conducted using a combination of measures to ensure high fidelity and high accuracy translations.

	Title	Learning to Learn from Web Data through Deep Semantic Embeddings			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2018	Publication	15th European Conference on Computer Vision Workshops	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	11134	Issue		Pages	514-529
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this paper we propose to learn a multimodal image and text embedding from Web and Social Media data, aiming to leverage the semantic knowledge learnt in the text domain and transfer it to a visual model for semantic image retrieval. We demonstrate that the pipeline can learn from images with associated text without supervision and perform a thourough analysis of five different text embeddings in three different benchmarks. We show that the embeddings learnt with Web and Social Media data have competitive performances over supervised methods in the text based image retrieval task, and we clearly outperform state of the art in the MIRFlickr dataset when training in the target data. Further we demonstrate how semantic multimodal image retrieval can be performed using the learnt embeddings, going beyond classical instance-level retrieval problems. Finally, we present a new dataset, InstaCities1M, composed by Instagram images and their associated texts that can be used for fair comparison of image-text embeddings.

	Title	Fast Kernel Generalized Discriminative Common Vectors for Feature Extraction			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2018	Publication	Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision	Abbreviated Journal	JMIV
	Volume	60	Issue	4	Pages	512-524
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents a supervised subspace learning method called Kernel Generalized Discriminative Common Vectors (KGDCV), as a novel extension of the known Discriminative Common Vectors method with Kernels. Our method combines the advantages of kernel methods to model complex data and solve nonlinear problems with moderate computational complexity, with the better generalization properties of generalized approaches for large dimensional data. These attractive combination makes KGDCV specially suited for feature extraction and classification in computer vision, image processing and pattern recognition applications. Two different approaches to this generalization are proposed, a first one based on the kernel trick (KT) and a second one based on the nonlinear projection trick (NPT) for even higher efficiency. Both methodologies have been validated on four different image datasets containing faces, objects and handwritten digits, and compared against well known non-linear state-of-art methods. Results show better discriminant properties than other generalized approaches both linear or kernel. In addition, the KGDCV-NPT approach presents a considerable computational gain, without compromising the accuracy of the model.

	Title	Integrating Visual and Textual Cues for Query-by-String Word Spotting			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2013	Publication	12th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	511 - 515
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this paper, we present a word spotting framework that follows the query-by-string paradigm where word images are represented both by textual and visual representations. The textual representation is formulated in terms of character $n$-grams while the visual one is based on the bag-of-visual-words scheme. These two representations are merged together and projected to a sub-vector space. This transform allows to, given a textual query, retrieve word instances that were only represented by the visual modality. Moreover, this statistical representation can be used together with state-of-the-art indexation structures in order to deal with large-scale scenarios. The proposed method is evaluated using a collection of historical documents outperforming state-of-the-art performances.

	Title	Particle detection and tracking in fluorescence time-lapse imaging: a contrario approach			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2016	Publication	Journal of Machine Vision and Applications	Abbreviated Journal	MVAP
	Volume	27	Issue		Pages	511-527
	Keywords	particle detection; particle tracking; a-contrario approach; time-lapse fluorescence imaging
	Abstract	In this work, we propose a probabilistic approach for the detection and the tracking of particles on biological images. In presence of very noised and poor quality data, particles and trajectories can be characterized by an a-contrario model, that estimates the probability of observing the structures of interest in random data. This approach, first introduced in the modeling of human visual perception and then successfully applied in many image processing tasks, leads to algorithms that do not require a previous learning stage, nor a tedious parameter tuning and are very robust to noise. Comparative evaluations against a well established baseline show that the proposed approach outperforms the state of the art.

	Title	A Computational Model for Amodal Completion			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2016	Publication	Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision	Abbreviated Journal	JMIV
	Volume	56	Issue	3	Pages	511–534
	Keywords	Perception; visual completion; disocclusion; Bayesian model;relatability; Euler elastica
	Abstract	This paper presents a computational model to recover the most likely interpretation of the 3D scene structure from a planar image, where some objects may occlude others. The estimated scene interpretation is obtained by integrating some global and local cues and provides both the complete disoccluded objects that form the scene and their ordering according to depth. Our method first computes several distal scenes which are compatible with the proximal planar image. To compute these different hypothesized scenes, we propose a perceptually inspired object disocclusion method, which works by minimizing the Euler's elastica as well as by incorporating the relatability of partially occluded contours and the convexity of the disoccluded objects. Then, to estimate the preferred scene we rely on a Bayesian model and define probabilities taking into account the global complexity of the objects in the hypothesized scenes as well as the effort of bringing these objects in their relative position in the planar image, which is also measured by an Euler's elastica-based quantity. The model is illustrated with numerical experiments on, both, synthetic and real images showing the ability of our model to reconstruct the occluded objects and the preferred perceptual order among them. We also present results on images of the Berkeley dataset with provided figure-ground ground-truth labeling.

	Title	Error Correcting Output Codes for multiclass classification: Application to two image vision problems			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2012	Publication	16th symposium on Artificial Intelligence & Signal Processing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	508-513
	Keywords
	Abstract	Error-correcting output codes (ECOC) represents a powerful framework to deal with multiclass classification problems based on combining binary classifiers. The key factor affecting the performance of ECOC methods is the independence of binary classifiers, without which the ECOC method would be ineffective. In spite of its ability on classification of problems with relatively large number of classes, it has been applied in few real world problems. In this paper, we investigate the behavior of the ECOC approach on two image vision problems: logo recognition and shape classification using Decision Tree and AdaBoost as the base learners. The results show that the ECOC method can be used to improve the classification performance in comparison with the classical multiclass approaches.

	Title	A probabilistic approach for color correction in image mosaicking applications			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2015	Publication	IEEE Transactions on Image Processing	Abbreviated Journal	TIP
	Volume	14	Issue	2	Pages	508 - 523
	Keywords	Color correction; image mosaicking; color transfer; color palette mapping functions
	Abstract	Image mosaicking applications require both geometrical and photometrical registrations between the images that compose the mosaic. This paper proposes a probabilistic color correction algorithm for correcting the photometrical disparities. First, the image to be color corrected is segmented into several regions using mean shift. Then, connected regions are extracted using a region fusion algorithm. Local joint image histograms of each region are modeled as collections of truncated Gaussians using a maximum likelihood estimation procedure. Then, local color palette mapping functions are computed using these sets of Gaussians. The color correction is performed by applying those functions to all the regions of the image. An extensive comparison with ten other state of the art color correction algorithms is presented, using two different image pair data sets. Results show that the proposed approach obtains the best average scores in both data sets and evaluation metrics and is also the most robust to failures.

	Title	Improving HMM-Based Keyword Spotting with Character Language Models			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2013	Publication	12th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	506-510
	Keywords
	Abstract	Facing high error rates and slow recognition speed for full text transcription of unconstrained handwriting images, keyword spotting is a promising alternative to locate specific search terms within scanned document images. We have previously proposed a learning-based method for keyword spotting using character hidden Markov models that showed a high performance when compared with traditional template image matching. In the lexicon-free approach pursued, only the text appearance was taken into account for recognition. In this paper, we integrate character n-gram language models into the spotting system in order to provide an additional language context. On the modern IAM database as well as the historical George Washington database, we demonstrate that character language models significantly improve the spotting performance.

	Title	Survey on Emotional Body Gesture Recognition			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2021	Publication	IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing	Abbreviated Journal	TAC
	Volume	12	Issue	2	Pages	505 - 523
	Keywords
	Abstract	Automatic emotion recognition has become a trending research topic in the past decade. While works based on facial expressions or speech abound, recognizing affect from body gestures remains a less explored topic. We present a new comprehensive survey hoping to boost research in the field. We first introduce emotional body gestures as a component of what is commonly known as “body language” and comment general aspects as gender differences and culture dependence. We then define a complete framework for automatic emotional body gesture recognition. We introduce person detection and comment static and dynamic body pose estimation methods both in RGB and 3D. We then comment the recent literature related to representation learning and emotion recognition from images of emotionally expressive gestures. We also discuss multi-modal approaches that combine speech or face with body gestures for improved emotion recognition. While pre-processing methodologies (e.g. human detection and pose estimation) are nowadays mature technologies fully developed for robust large scale analysis, we show that for emotion recognition the quantity of labelled data is scarce, there is no agreement on clearly defined output spaces and the representations are shallow and largely based on naive geometrical representations.

	Title	Scene Representations for Autonomous Driving: an approach based on polygonal primitives			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2015	Publication	2nd Iberian Robotics Conference ROBOT2015	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	417	Issue		Pages	503-515
	Keywords	Scene reconstruction; Point cloud; Autonomous vehicles
	Abstract	In this paper, we present a novel methodology to compute a 3D scene representation. The algorithm uses macro scale polygonal primitives to model the scene. This means that the representation of the scene is given as a list of large scale polygons that describe the geometric structure of the environment. Results show that the approach is capable of producing accurate descriptions of the scene. In addition, the algorithm is very efficient when compared to other techniques.
