Title Depth Map Estimation from a Single 2D Image Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 17th International Conference on Signal-Image Technology & Internet-Based Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 347-353
Keywords
Abstract This paper presents an innovative architecture based on a Cycle Generative Adversarial Network (CycleGAN) for the synthesis of high-quality depth maps from monocular images. The proposed architecture leverages a diverse set of loss functions, including cycle consistency, contrastive, identity, and least square losses, to facilitate the generation of depth maps that exhibit realism and high fidelity. A notable feature of the approach is its ability to synthesize depth maps from grayscale images without the need for paired training data. Extensive comparisons with different state-of-the-art methods show the superiority of the proposed approach in both quantitative metrics and visual quality. This work addresses the challenge of depth map synthesis and offers significant advancements in the field.

Title Object Detection in Very Low-Resolution Thermal Images through a Guided-Based Super-Resolution Approach Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 17th International Conference on Signal-Image Technology & Internet-Based Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract This work proposes a novel approach that integrates super-resolution techniques with off-the-shelf object detection methods to tackle the problem of handling very low-resolution thermal images. The suggested approach begins by enhancing the low-resolution (LR) thermal images through a guided super-resolution strategy, leveraging a high-resolution (HR) visible spectrum image. Subsequently, object detection is performed on the high-resolution thermal image. The experimental results demonstrate tremendous improvements in comparison with both scenarios: when object detection is performed on the LR thermal image alone, as well as when object detection is conducted on the up-sampled LR thermal image. Moreover, the proposed approach proves highly valuable in camouflaged scenarios where objects might remain undetected in visible spectrum images.

Title Boosting Guided Super-Resolution Performance with Synthesized Images Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 17th International Conference on Signal-Image Technology & Internet-Based Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 189-195
Keywords
Abstract Guided image processing techniques are widely used for extracting information from a guiding image to aid in the processing of the guided one. These images may be sourced from different modalities, such as 2D and 3D, or different spectral bands, like visible and infrared. In the case of guided cross-spectral super-resolution, features from the two modal images are extracted and efficiently merged to migrate guidance information from one image, usually high-resolution (HR), toward the guided one, usually low-resolution (LR). Different approaches have been recently proposed focusing on the development of architectures for feature extraction and merging in the cross-spectral domains, but none of them care about the different nature of the given images. This paper focuses on the specific problem of guided thermal image super-resolution, where an LR thermal image is enhanced by an HR visible spectrum image. To improve existing guided super-resolution techniques, a novel scheme is proposed that maps the original guiding information to a thermal image-like representation that is similar to the output. Experimental results evaluating five different approaches demonstrate that the best results are achieved when the guiding and guided images share the same domain.

Title Weighted Bagging for Graph based One-Class Classifiers Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication 9th International Workshop on Multiple Classifier Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume 5997 Issue Pages 1-10
Keywords
Abstract Most conventional learning algorithms require both positive and negative training data for achieving accurate classification results. However, the problem of learning classifiers from only positive data arises in many applications where negative data are too costly, difficult to obtain, or not available at all. Minimum Spanning Tree Class Descriptor (MSTCD) was presented as a method that achieves better accuracies than other one-class classifiers in high dimensional data. However, the presence of outliers in the target class severely harms the performance of this classifier. In this paper we propose two bagging strategies for MSTCD that reduce the influence of outliers in training data. We show the improved performance on both real and artificially contaminated data.

Title Interactive Labeling of WCE Images Type Conference Article
Year 2011 Publication 5th Iberian Conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis Abbreviated Journal
Volume 6669 Issue Pages 143-150
Keywords
Abstract A high quality labeled training set is necessary for any supervised machine learning algorithm. Labeling of the data can be a very expensive process, specially while dealing with data of high variability and complexity. A good example of such data are the videos from Wireless Capsule Endoscopy. Building a representative WCE data set means many videos to be labeled by an expert. The problem that occurs is the data diversity, in the space of the features, from different WCE studies. That means that when new data arrives it is highly probable that it will not be represented in the training set, thus getting a high probability of performing an error when applying machine learning schemes. In this paper an interactive labeling scheme that allows reducing expert effort in the labeling process is presented. It is shown that the number of human interventions can be significantly reduced. The proposed system allows the annotation of informative/non-informative frames of the WCE video with less than 100 clicks

Title Online Error-Correcting Output Codes Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Pattern Recognition Letters Abbreviated Journal PRL
Volume 32 Issue 3 Pages 458-467
Keywords
Abstract IF JCR CCIA 1.303 2009 54/103
This article proposes a general extension of the error correcting output codes framework to the online learning scenario. As a result, the final classifier handles the addition of new classes independently of the base classifier used. In particular, this extension supports the use of both online example incremental and batch classifiers as base learners. The extension of the traditional problem independent codings one-versus-all and one-versus-one is introduced. Furthermore, two new codings are proposed, unbalanced online ECOC and a problem dependent online ECOC. This last online coding technique takes advantage of the problem data for minimizing the number of dichotomizers used in the ECOC framework while preserving a high accuracy. These techniques are validated on an online setting of 11 data sets from UCI database and applied to two real machine vision applications: traffic sign recognition and face recognition. As a result, the online ECOC techniques proposed provide a feasible and robust way for handling new classes using any base classifier.

Title ROC curves and video analysis optimization in intestinal capsule endoscopy Type Journal Article
Year 2006 Publication Pattern Recognition Letters Abbreviated Journal PRL
Volume 27 Issue 8 Pages 875–881
Keywords ROC curves; Classification; Classifiers ensemble; Detection of intestinal contractions; Imbalanced classes; Wireless capsule endoscopy
Abstract Wireless capsule endoscopy involves inspection of hours of video material by a highly qualified professional. Time episodes corresponding to intestinal contractions, which are of interest to the physician constitute about 1% of the video. The problem is to label automatically time episodes containing contractions so that only a fraction of the video needs inspection. As the classes of contraction and non-contraction images in the video are largely imbalanced, ROC curves are used to optimize the trade-off between false positive and false negative rates. Classifier ensemble methods and simple classifiers were examined. Our results reinforce the claims from recent literature that classifier ensemble methods specifically designed for imbalanced problems have substantial advantages over simple classifiers and standard classifier ensembles. By using ROC curves with the bagging ensemble method the inspection time can be drastically reduced at the expense of a small fraction of missed contractions.

Title Intestinal Motility Assessment With Video Capsule Endoscopy: Automatic Annotation of Phasic Intestinal Contractions Type Journal Article
Year 2010 Publication IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging Abbreviated Journal TMI
Volume 29 Issue 2 Pages 246-259
Keywords
Abstract Intestinal motility assessment with video capsule endoscopy arises as a novel and challenging clinical fieldwork. This technique is based on the analysis of the patterns of intestinal contractions shown in a video provided by an ingestible capsule with a wireless micro-camera. The manual labeling of all the motility events requires large amount of time for offline screening in search of findings with low prevalence, which turns this procedure currently unpractical. In this paper, we propose a machine learning system to automatically detect the phasic intestinal contractions in video capsule endoscopy, driving a useful but not feasible clinical routine into a feasible clinical procedure. Our proposal is based on a sequential design which involves the analysis of textural, color, and blob features together with SVM classifiers. Our approach tackles the reduction of the imbalance rate of data and allows the inclusion of domain knowledge as new stages in the cascade. We present a detailed analysis, both in a quantitative and a qualitative way, by providing several measures of performance and the assessment study of interobserver variability. Our system performs at 70% of sensitivity for individual detection, whilst obtaining equivalent patterns to those of the experts for density of contractions.

Title Motility bar: a new tool for motility analysis of endoluminal videos Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication Computers in Biology and Medicine Abbreviated Journal CBM
Volume 65 Issue Pages 320-330
Keywords Small intestine; Motility; WCE; Computer vision; Image classification
Abstract Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) provides a new perspective of the small intestine, since it enables, for the first time, visualization of the entire organ. However, the long visual video analysis time, due to the large number of data in a single WCE study, was an important factor impeding the widespread use of the capsule as a tool for intestinal abnormalities detection. Therefore, the introduction of WCE triggered a new field for the application of computational methods, and in particular, of computer vision. In this paper, we follow the computational approach and come up with a new perspective on the small intestine motility problem. Our approach consists of three steps: first, we review a tool for the visualization of the motility information contained in WCE video; second, we propose algorithms for the characterization of two motility building-blocks: contraction detector and lumen size estimation; finally, we introduce an approach to detect segments of stable motility behavior. Our claims are supported by an evaluation performed with 10 WCE videos, suggesting that our methods ably capture the intestinal motility information.

Title Deformable B-Solids and Implicit Snakes for Localization and Tracking of SPAMM MRI-Data Type Conference Article
Year 1996 Publication Workshop on Mathematical Methods in Biomedical Image Analysis Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 192-201
Keywords
Abstract To date, MRI-SPAMM data from different image slices have been analyzed independently. In this paper, we propose an approach for 3D tag localization and tracking of SPAMM data by a novel deformable B-solid. The solid is defined in terms of a 3D tensor product B-spline. The isoparametric curves of the B-spline solid have special importance. These are termed implicit snakes as they deform under image forces from tag lines in different image slices. The localization and tracking of tag lines is performed under constraints of continuity and smoothness of the B-solid. The framework unifies the problems of localization, and displacement fitting and interpolation into the same procedure utilizing B-spline bases for interpolation. To track motion from boundaries and restrict image forces to the myocardium, a volumetric model is employed as a pair of coupled endocardial and epicardial B-spline surfaces. To recover deformations in the LV an energy-minimization problem is posed where both tag and ...
