Title Towards a computed-aided diagnosis system in colonoscopy: Automatic polyp segmentation using convolution neural networks Type Journal
Year 2018 Publication Journal of Medical Robotics Research Abbreviated Journal JMRR
Volume 3 Issue 2 Pages
Keywords (up) convolutional neural networks; colonoscopy; computer aided diagnosis
Abstract Early diagnosis is essential for the successful treatment of bowel cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC) and capsule endoscopic imaging with robotic actuation can be a valuable diagnostic tool when combined with automated image analysis. We present a deep learning rooted detection and segmentation framework for recognizing lesions in colonoscopy and capsule endoscopy images. We restructure established convolution architectures, such as VGG and ResNets, by converting them into fully-connected convolution networks (FCNs), ne-tune them and study their capabilities for polyp segmentation and detection. We additionally use Shape-from-Shading (SfS) to recover depth and provide a richer representation of the tissue's structure in colonoscopy images. Depth is
incorporated into our network models as an additional input channel to the RGB information and we demonstrate that the resulting network yields improved performance. Our networks are tested on publicly available datasets and the most accurate segmentation model achieved a mean segmentation IU of 47.78% and 56.95% on the ETIS-Larib and CVC-Colon datasets, respectively. For polyp
detection, the top performing models we propose surpass the current state of the art with detection recalls superior to 90% for all datasets tested. To our knowledge, we present the rst work to use FCNs for polyp segmentation in addition to proposing a novel combination of SfS and RGB that boosts performance.

Title Word-Hunter: A Gamesourcing Experience to Validate the Transcription of Historical Manuscripts Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 16th International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 528-533
Keywords (up) Crowdsourcing; Gamification; Handwritten documents; Performance evaluation
Abstract Nowadays, there are still many handwritten historical documents in archives waiting to be transcribed and indexed. Since manual transcription is tedious and time consuming, the automatic transcription seems the path to follow. However, the performance of current handwriting recognition techniques is not perfect, so a manual validation is mandatory. Crowdsourcing is a good strategy for manual validation, however it is a tedious task. In this paper we analyze experiences based in gamification
in order to propose and design a gamesourcing framework that increases the interest of users. Then, we describe and analyze our experience when validating the automatic transcription using the gamesourcing application. Moreover, thanks to the combination of clustering and handwriting recognition techniques, we can speed up the validation while maintaining the performance.

Title Deep learning based camera pose estimation in multi-view environment Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 14th IEEE International Conference on Signal Image Technology & Internet Based System Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords (up) Deep learning; Camera pose estimation; Multiview environment; Siamese architecture
Abstract This paper proposes to use a deep learning network architecture for relative camera pose estimation on a multi-view environment. The proposed network is a variant architecture of AlexNet to use as regressor for prediction the relative translation and rotation as output. The proposed approach is trained from
scratch on a large data set that takes as input a pair of imagesfrom the same scene. This new architecture is compared with a previous approach using standard metrics, obtaining better results on the relative camera pose.

Title Color Naming for Multi-Color Fashion Items Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 6th World Conference on Information Systems and Technologies Abbreviated Journal
Volume 747 Issue Pages 64-73
Keywords (up) Deep learning; Color; Multi-label
Abstract There exists a significant amount of research on color naming of single colored objects. However in reality many fashion objects consist of multiple colors. Currently, searching in fashion datasets for multi-colored objects can be a laborious task. Therefore, in this paper we focus on color naming for images with multi-color fashion items. We collect a dataset, which consists of images which may have from one up to four colors. We annotate the images with the 11 basic colors of the English language. We experiment with several designs for deep neural networks with different losses. We show that explicitly estimating the number of colors in the fashion item leads to improved results.

Title Attend and Rectify: A Gated Attention Mechanism for Fine-Grained Recovery Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 15th European Conference on Computer Vision Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11212 Issue Pages 357-372
Keywords (up) Deep Learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; Attention
Abstract We propose a novel attention mechanism to enhance Convolutional Neural Networks for fine-grained recognition. It learns to attend to lower-level feature activations without requiring part annotations and uses these activations to update and rectify the output likelihood distribution. In contrast to other approaches, the proposed mechanism is modular, architecture-independent and efficient both in terms of parameters and computation required. Experiments show that networks augmented with our approach systematically improve their classification accuracy and become more robust to clutter. As a result, Wide Residual Networks augmented with our proposal surpasses the state of the art classification accuracies in CIFAR-10, the Adience gender recognition task, Stanford dogs, and UEC Food-100.

Title A probabilistic framework for handwritten text line segmentation Type Miscellaneous
Year 2018 Publication Arxiv Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords (up) Document Analysis; Text Line Segmentation; EM algorithm; Probabilistic Graphical Models; Parameter Learning
Abstract We successfully combine Expectation-Maximization algorithm and variational
approaches for parameter learning and computing inference on Markov random fields. This is a general method that can be applied to many computer
vision tasks. In this paper, we apply it to handwritten text line segmentation.
We conduct several experiments that demonstrate that our method deal with
common issues of this task, such as complex document layout or non-latin
scripts. The obtained results prove that our method achieve state-of-theart performance on different benchmark datasets without any particular fine
tuning step.

Title Data for Training Models, Domain Adaptation Type Book Chapter
Year 2018 Publication Intelligent Vehicles. Enabling Technologies and Future Developments Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 395–436
Keywords (up) Driving simulator; hardware; software; interface; traffic simulation; macroscopic simulation; microscopic simulation; virtual data; training data
Abstract Simulation can enable several developments in the field of intelligent vehicles. This chapter is divided into three main subsections. The first one deals with driving simulators. The continuous improvement of hardware performance is a well-known fact that is allowing the development of more complex driving simulators. The immersion in the simulation scene is increased by high fidelity feedback to the driver. In the second subsection, traffic simulation is explained as well as how it can be used for intelligent transport systems. Finally, it is rather clear that sensor-based perception and action must be based on data-driven algorithms. Simulation could provide data to train and test algorithms that are afterwards implemented in vehicles. These tools are explained in the third subsection.

Title Batch-based activity recognition from egocentric photo-streams revisited Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication Pattern Analysis and Applications Abbreviated Journal PAA
Volume 21 Issue 4 Pages 953–965
Keywords (up) Egocentric vision; Lifelogging; Activity recognition; Deep learning; Recurrent neural networks
Abstract Wearable cameras can gather large amounts of image data that provide rich visual information about the daily activities of the wearer. Motivated by the large number of health applications that could be enabled by the automatic recognition of daily activities, such as lifestyle characterization for habit improvement, context-aware personal assistance and tele-rehabilitation services, we propose a system to classify 21 daily activities from photo-streams acquired by a wearable photo-camera. Our approach combines the advantages of a late fusion ensemble strategy relying on convolutional neural networks at image level with the ability of recurrent neural networks to account for the temporal evolution of high-level features in photo-streams without relying on event boundaries. The proposed batch-based approach achieved an overall accuracy of 89.85%, outperforming state-of-the-art end-to-end methodologies. These results were achieved on a dataset consists of 44,902 egocentric pictures from three persons captured during 26 days in average.

Title Egocentric video description based on temporally-linked sequences Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation Abbreviated Journal JVCIR
Volume 50 Issue Pages 205-216
Keywords (up) egocentric vision; video description; deep learning; multi-modal learning
Abstract Egocentric vision consists in acquiring images along the day from a first person point-of-view using wearable cameras. The automatic analysis of this information allows to discover daily patterns for improving the quality of life of the user. A natural topic that arises in egocentric vision is storytelling, that is, how to understand and tell the story relying behind the pictures.
In this paper, we tackle storytelling as an egocentric sequences description problem. We propose a novel methodology that exploits information from temporally neighboring events, matching precisely the nature of egocentric sequences. Furthermore, we present a new method for multimodal data fusion consisting on a multi-input attention recurrent network. We also release the EDUB-SegDesc dataset. This is the first dataset for egocentric image sequences description, consisting of 1,339 events with 3,991 descriptions, from 55 days acquired by 11 people. Finally, we prove that our proposal outperforms classical attentional encoder-decoder methods for video description.

Title Review on computer vision techniques in emergency situations Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication Multimedia Tools and Applications Abbreviated Journal MTAP
Volume 77 Issue 13 Pages 17069–17107
Keywords (up) Emergency management; Computer vision; Decision makers; Situational awareness; Critical situation
Abstract In emergency situations, actions that save lives and limit the impact of hazards are crucial. In order to act, situational awareness is needed to decide what to do. Geolocalized photos and video of the situations as they evolve can be crucial in better understanding them and making decisions faster. Cameras are almost everywhere these days, either in terms of smartphones, installed CCTV cameras, UAVs or others. However, this poses challenges in big data and information overflow. Moreover, most of the time there are no disasters at any given location, so humans aiming to detect sudden situations may not be as alert as needed at any point in time. Consequently, computer vision tools can be an excellent decision support. The number of emergencies where computer vision tools has been considered or used is very wide, and there is a great overlap across related emergency research. Researchers tend to focus on state-of-the-art systems that cover the same emergency as they are studying, obviating important research in other fields. In order to unveil this overlap, the survey is divided along four main axes: the types of emergencies that have been studied in computer vision, the objective that the algorithms can address, the type of hardware needed and the algorithms used. Therefore, this review provides a broad overview of the progress of computer vision covering all sorts of emergencies.

Title Review on Emotion Recognition Databases Type Book Chapter
Year 2018 Publication Human-Robot Interaction: Theory and Application Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords (up) emotion; computer vision; databases
Abstract Over the past few decades human-computer interaction has become more important in our daily lives and research has developed in many directions: memory research, depression detection, and behavioural deficiency detection, lie detection, (hidden) emotion recognition etc. Because of that, the number of generic emotion and face databases or those tailored to specific needs have grown immensely large. Thus, a comprehensive yet compact guide is needed to help researchers find the most suitable database and understand what types of databases already exist. In this paper, different elicitation methods are discussed and the databases are primarily organized into neat and informative tables based on the format.

Title Beyond Oneshot Encoding: lower dimensional target embedding Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication Image and Vision Computing Abbreviated Journal IMAVIS
Volume 75 Issue Pages 21-31
Keywords (up) Error correcting output codes; Output embeddings; Deep learning; Computer vision
Abstract Target encoding plays a central role when learning Convolutional Neural Networks. In this realm, one-hot encoding is the most prevalent strategy due to its simplicity. However, this so widespread encoding schema assumes a flat label space, thus ignoring rich relationships existing among labels that can be exploited during training. In large-scale datasets, data does not span the full label space, but instead lies in a low-dimensional output manifold. Following this observation, we embed the targets into a low-dimensional space, drastically improving convergence speed while preserving accuracy. Our contribution is two fold: (i) We show that random projections of the label space are a valid tool to find such lower dimensional embeddings, boosting dramatically convergence rates at zero computational cost; and (ii) we propose a normalized eigenrepresentation of the class manifold that encodes the targets with minimal information loss, improving the accuracy of random projections encoding while enjoying the same convergence rates. Experiments on CIFAR-100, CUB200-2011, Imagenet, and MIT Places demonstrate that the proposed approach drastically improves convergence speed while reaching very competitive accuracy rates.

Title Deep Learning based Single Image Dehazing Type Conference Article

Volume Issue Pages 1250 - 12507
Keywords (up) Gallium nitride; Atmospheric modeling; Generators; Generative adversarial networks; Convergence; Image color analysis
Abstract This paper proposes a novel approach to remove haze degradations in RGB images using a stacked conditional Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). It employs a triplet of GAN to remove the haze on each color channel independently.
A multiple loss functions scheme, applied over a conditional probabilistic model, is proposed. The proposed GAN architecture learns to remove the haze, using as conditioned entrance, the images with haze from which the clear
images will be obtained. Such formulation ensures a fast model training convergence and a homogeneous model generalization. Experiments showed that the proposed method generates high-quality clear images.

Title Transferring GANs: generating images from limited data Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 15th European Conference on Computer Vision Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11210 Issue Pages 220-236
Keywords (up) Generative adversarial networks; Transfer learning; Domain adaptation; Image generation
Abstract ransferring knowledge of pre-trained networks to new domains by means of fine-tuning is a widely used practice for applications based on discriminative models. To the best of our knowledge this practice has not been studied within the context of generative deep networks. Therefore, we study domain adaptation applied to image generation with generative adversarial networks. We evaluate several aspects of domain adaptation, including the impact of target domain size, the relative distance between source and target domain, and the initialization of conditional GANs. Our results show that using knowledge from pre-trained networks can shorten the convergence time and can significantly improve the quality of the generated images, especially when target data is limited. We show that these conclusions can also be drawn for conditional GANs even when the pre-trained model was trained without conditioning. Our results also suggest that density is more important than diversity and a dataset with one or few densely sampled classes is a better source model than more diverse datasets such as ImageNet or Places.
