	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	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	A Deterministic-Statistic Adventitia Detection in IVUS Images			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2005	Publication	ESC Congress	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Electron microscopy; Unbending; 2D crystal; Interpolation; Approximation
	Abstract	Plaque analysis in IVUS planes needs accurate intima and adventitia models. Large variety in adventitia descriptors difficulties its detection and motivates using a classification strategy for selecting points on the structure. Whatever the set of descriptors used, the selection stage suffers from fake responses due to noise and uncompleted true curves. In order to smooth background noise while strengthening responses, we apply a restricted anisotropic filter that homogenizes grey levels along the image significant structures. Candidate points are extracted by means of a simple semi supervised adaptive classification of the filtered image response to edge and calcium detectors. The final model is obtained by interpolating the former line segments with an anisotropic contour closing technique based on functional extension principles.

	Title	On the nature of 2D crystal unbending			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2006	Publication	Journal of Structural Biology	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	156	Issue	3	Pages	546-555
	Keywords	Electron microscopy
	Abstract	Crystal unbending, the process that aims to recover a perfect crystal from experimental data, is one of the more important steps in electron crystallography image processing. The unbending process involves three steps: estimation of the unit cell displacements from their ideal positions, extension of the deformation field to the whole image and transformation of the image in order to recover an ideal crystal. In this work, we present a systematic analysis of the second step oriented to address two issues. First, whether the unit cells remain undistorted and only the distance between them should be changed (rigid case) or should be modified with the same deformation suffered by the whole crystal (elastic case). Second, the performance of different extension algorithms (interpolation versus approximation) is explored. Our experiments show that there is no difference between elastic and rigid cases or among the extension algorithms. This implies that the deformation fields are constant over large areas. Furthermore, our results indicate that the main source of error is the transformation of the crystal image.

	Title	Multi-Spectral Stereo Odometry			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2015	Publication	IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems	Abbreviated Journal	TITS
	Volume	16	Issue	3	Pages	1210-1224
	Keywords	Egomotion estimation; feature matching; multispectral odometry (MO); optical flow; stereo odometry; thermal imagery
	Abstract	In this paper, we investigate the problem of visual odometry for ground vehicles based on the simultaneous utilization of multispectral cameras. It encompasses a stereo rig composed of an optical (visible) and thermal sensors. The novelty resides in the localization of the cameras as a stereo setup rather than two monocular cameras of different spectrums. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time such task is attempted. Log-Gabor wavelets at different orientations and scales are used to extract interest points from both images. These are then described using a combination of frequency and spatial information within the local neighborhood. Matches between the pairs of multimodal images are computed using the cosine similarity function based on the descriptors. Pyramidal Lucas–Kanade tracker is also introduced to tackle temporal feature matching within challenging sequences of the data sets. The vehicle egomotion is computed from the triangulated 3-D points corresponding to the matched features. A windowed version of bundle adjustment incorporating Gauss–Newton optimization is utilized for motion estimation. An outlier removal scheme is also included within the framework to deal with outliers. Multispectral data sets were generated and used as test bed. They correspond to real outdoor scenarios captured using our multimodal setup. Finally, detailed results validating the proposed strategy are illustrated.

	Title	Visual Summary of Egocentric Photostreams by Representative Keyframes			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2015	Publication	IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo ICMEW2015	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1-6
	Keywords	egocentric; lifelogging; summarization; keyframes
	Abstract	Building a visual summary from an egocentric photostream captured by a lifelogging wearable camera is of high interest for different applications (e.g. memory reinforcement). In this paper, we propose a new summarization method based on keyframes selection that uses visual features extracted bymeans of a convolutional neural network. Our method applies an unsupervised clustering for dividing the photostreams into events, and finally extracts the most relevant keyframe for each event. We assess the results by applying a blind-taste test on a group of 20 people who assessed the quality of the summaries.

	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	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	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	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	Improving Edge Detection in RGB Images by Adding NIR Channel			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2018	Publication	14th IEEE International Conference on Signal Image Technology & Internet Based System	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Edge detection; Contour detection; VGG; CNN; RGB-NIR; Near infrared images
	Abstract	The edge detection is yet a critical problem in many computer vision and image processing tasks. The manuscript presents an Holistically-Nested Edge Detection based approach to study the inclusion of Near-Infrared in the Visible spectrum images. To do so, a Single Sensor based dataset has been acquired in the range of 400nm to 1100nm wavelength spectral band. Prominent results have been obtained even when the ground truth (annotated edge-map) is based in the visible wavelength spectrum.

	Title	Detecting loss of diversity for an efficient termination of EAs			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2013	Publication	15th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	561 - 566
	Keywords	EA termination; EA population diversity; EA steady state
	Abstract	Termination of Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) at its steady state so that useless iterations are not performed is a main point for its efficient application to black-box problems. Many EA algorithms evolve while there is still diversity in their population and, thus, they could be terminated by analyzing the behavior some measures of EA population diversity. This paper presents a numeric approximation to steady states that can be used to detect the moment EA population has lost its diversity for EA termination. Our condition has been applied to 3 EA paradigms based on diversity and a selection of functions covering the properties most relevant for EA convergence. Experiments show that our condition works regardless of the search space dimension and function landscape.

	Title	Efficient complementary viewpoint selection in volume rendering			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2013	Publication	21st WSCG Conference on Computer Graphics,	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Dual camera; Visualization; Interactive Interfaces; Dynamic Time Warping.
	Abstract	A major goal of visualization is to appropriately express knowledge of scientific data. Generally, gathering visual information contained in the volume data often requires a lot of expertise from the final user to setup the parameters of the visualization. One way of alleviating this problem is to provide the position of inner structures with different viewpoint locations to enhance the perception and construction of the mental image. To this end, traditional illustrations use two or three different views of the regions of interest. Similarly, with the aim of assisting the users to easily place a good viewpoint location, this paper proposes an automatic and interactive method that locates different complementary viewpoints from a reference camera in volume datasets. Specifically, the proposed method combines the quantity of information each camera provides for each structure and the shape similarity of the projections of the remaining viewpoints based on Dynamic Time Warping. The selected complementary viewpoints allow a better understanding of the focused structure in several applications. Thus, the user interactively receives feedback based on several viewpoints that helps him to understand the visual information. A live-user evaluation on different data sets show a good convergence to useful complementary viewpoints.

	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	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	Deteccion automatica de la dominancia en conversaciones diadicas			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2010	Publication	Escritos de Psicologia	Abbreviated Journal	EP
	Volume	3	Issue	2	Pages	41–45
	Keywords	Dominance detection; Non-verbal communication; Visual features
	Abstract	Dominance is referred to the level of influence that a person has in a conversation. Dominance is an important research area in social psychology, but the problem of its automatic estimation is a very recent topic in the contexts of social and wearable computing. In this paper, we focus on the dominance detection of visual cues. We estimate the correlation among observers by categorizing the dominant people in a set of face-to-face conversations. Different dominance indicators from gestural communication are defined, manually annotated, and compared to the observers' opinion. Moreover, these indicators are automatically extracted from video sequences and learnt by using binary classifiers. Results from the three analyses showed a high correlation and allows the categorization of dominant people in public discussion video sequences.

	Title	nn-UNet Training on CycleGAN-Translated Images for Cross-modal Domain Adaptation in Biomedical Imaging			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2022	Publication	International MICCAI Brainlesion Workshop	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	12963	Issue		Pages	540–551
	Keywords	Domain adaptation; Vestibular schwannoma (VS); Deep learning; nn-UNet; CycleGAN
	Abstract	In recent years, deep learning models have considerably advanced the performance of segmentation tasks on Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). However, these models show a considerable performance drop when they are evaluated on unseen data from a different distribution. Since annotation is often a hard and costly task requiring expert supervision, it is necessary to develop ways in which existing models can be adapted to the unseen domains without any additional labelled information. In this work, we explore one such technique which extends the CycleGAN [2] architecture to generate label-preserving data in the target domain. The synthetic target domain data is used to train the nn-UNet [3] framework for the task of multi-label segmentation. The experiments are conducted and evaluated on the dataset [1] provided in the ‘Cross-Modality Domain Adaptation for Medical Image Segmentation’ challenge [23] for segmentation of vestibular schwannoma (VS) tumour and cochlea on contrast enhanced (ceT1) and high resolution (hrT2) MRI scans. In the proposed approach, our model obtains dice scores (DSC) 0.73 and 0.49 for tumour and cochlea respectively on the validation set of the dataset. This indicates the applicability of the proposed technique to real-world problems where data may be obtained by different acquisition protocols as in [1] where hrT2 images are more reliable, safer, and lower-cost alternative to ceT1.

	Title	Domain Adaptation in Image Dehazing: Exploring the Usage of Images from Virtual Scenarios			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2022	Publication	16th International Conference on Computer Graphics, Visualization, Computer Vision and Image Processing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	85-92
	Keywords	Domain adaptation; Synthetic hazed dataset; Dehazing
	Abstract	This work presents a novel domain adaptation strategy for deep learning-based approaches to solve the image dehazing problem. Firstly, a large set of synthetic images is generated by using a realistic 3D graphic simulator; these synthetic images contain different densities of haze, which are used for training the model that is later adapted to any real scenario. The adaptation process requires just a few images to fine-tune the model parameters. The proposed strategy allows overcoming the limitation of training a given model with few images. In other words, the proposed strategy implements the adaptation of a haze removal model trained with synthetic images to real scenarios. It should be noticed that it is quite difficult, if not impossible, to have large sets of pairs of real-world images (with and without haze) to train in a supervised way dehazing algorithms. Experimental results are provided showing the validity of the proposed domain adaptation strategy.
