Title Extraction des pieces de un plan de habitation Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication Colloque Internacional Francophone de l´Ecrit et le Document Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 1–12
Keywords
Abstract In this article, a method to extract the rooms of an architectural floor plan image is described. We first present a line detection algorithm to extract long lines in the image. Those lines are analyzed to identify the existing walls. From this point, room extraction can be seen as a classical segmentation task for which each region corresponds to a room. The chosen resolution strategy consists in recursively decomposing the image until getting nearly convex regions. The notion of convexity is difficult to quantify, and the selection of separation lines can also be rough. Thus, we take advantage of knowledge associated to architectural floor plans in order to obtain mainly rectangular rooms. Preliminary tests on a set of real documents show promising results.

Title Classifying Objects at Different Sizes with Multi-Scale Stacked Sequential Learning Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication 13th International Conference of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence Abbreviated Journal
Volume 220 Issue Pages 193–200
Keywords
Abstract Sequential learning is that discipline of machine learning that deals with dependent data. In this paper, we use the Multi-scale Stacked Sequential Learning approach (MSSL) to solve the task of pixel-wise classification based on contextual information. The main contribution of this work is a shifting technique applied during the testing phase that makes possible, thanks to template images, to classify objects at different sizes. The results show that the proposed method robustly classifies such objects capturing their spatial relationships.

Title Towards a unified chromatic inducction model Type Journal Article
Year 2010 Publication Journal of Vision Abbreviated Journal VSS
Volume 10 Issue 12:5 Pages 1-24
Keywords Visual system; Color induction; Wavelet transform
Abstract In a previous work (X. Otazu, M. Vanrell, & C. A. Párraga, 2008b), we showed how several brightness induction effects can be predicted using a simple multiresolution wavelet model (BIWaM). Here we present a new model for chromatic induction processes (termed Chromatic Induction Wavelet Model or CIWaM), which is also implemented on a multiresolution framework and based on similar assumptions related to the spatial frequency and the contrast surround energy of the stimulus. The CIWaM can be interpreted as a very simple extension of the BIWaM to the chromatic channels, which in our case are defined in the MacLeod-Boynton (lsY) color space. This new model allows us to unify both chromatic assimilation and chromatic contrast effects in a single mathematical formulation. The predictions of the CIWaM were tested by means of several color and brightness induction experiments, which showed an acceptable agreement between model predictions and psychophysical data.

Title Conditional Random Fields for image segmentation in Intravascular Ultrasound Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication Medical Image Computing in Catalunya: Graduate Student Workshop Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 13–14
Keywords
Abstract We present a Conditional Random Fields based approach for segmenting Intravascular Ultrasond (IVUS) images. The presented method uses a contextual discriminative graphical model to deal with the presence of distorsions and artifacts in IVUS images, that turns the segmentation of interesting regions into a difficult task. An accurate lumen segmentation on IVUS longitudinal images is achieved.

Title A Content Spotting System For Line Drawing Graphic Document Images Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal
Volume 20 Issue Pages 3420–3423
Keywords
Abstract We present a content spotting system for line drawing graphic document images. The proposed system is sufficiently domain independent and takes the keyword based information retrieval for graphic documents, one step forward, to Query By Example (QBE) and focused retrieval. During offline learning mode: we vectorize the documents in the repository, represent them by attributed relational graphs, extract regions of interest (ROIs) from them, convert each ROI to a fuzzy structural signature, cluster similar signatures to form ROI classes and build an index for the repository. During online querying mode: a Bayesian network classifier recognizes the ROIs in the query image and the corresponding documents are fetched by looking up in the repository index. Experimental results are presented for synthetic images of architectural and electronic documents.

Title Graph of Words Embedding for Molecular Structure-Activity Relationship Analysis Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication 15th Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal
Volume 6419 Issue Pages 30–37
Keywords
Abstract Structure-Activity relationship analysis aims at discovering chemical activity of molecular compounds based on their structure. In this article we make use of a particular graph representation of molecules and propose a new graph embedding procedure to solve the problem of structure-activity relationship analysis. The embedding is essentially an arrangement of a molecule in the form of a vector by considering frequencies of appearing atoms and frequencies of covalent bonds between them. Results on two benchmark databases show the effectiveness of the proposed technique in terms of recognition accuracy while avoiding high operational costs in the transformation.

Title Robust Real-Time Background Subtraction Based on Local Neighborhood Patterns Type Journal Article
Year 2010 Publication EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing Abbreviated Journal EURASIPJ
Volume Issue Pages 7
Keywords
Abstract Article ID 901205
This paper describes an efficient background subtraction technique for detecting moving objects. The proposed approach is able to overcome difficulties like illumination changes and moving shadows. Our method introduces two discriminative features based on angular and modular patterns, which are formed by similarity measurement between two sets of RGB color vectors: one belonging to the background image and the other to the current image. We show how these patterns are used to improve foreground detection in the presence of moving shadows and in the case when there are strong similarities in color between background and foreground pixels. Experimental results over a collection of public and own datasets of real image sequences demonstrate that the proposed technique achieves a superior performance compared with state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, both the low computational and space complexities make the presented algorithm feasible for real-time applications.

Title Reduction of Pattern Search Area in Colonoscopy Images by Merging Non-Informative Regions Type Conference Article
Year 2010 Publication 28th Congreso Anual de la Sociedad Española de Ingeniería Biomédica Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract One of the first usual steps in pattern recognition schemas is image segmentation, in order to reduce the dimensionality of the problem and manage smaller quantity of data. In our case as we are pursuing real-time colon cancer polyp detection, this step is crucial. In this paper we present a non-informative region estimation algorithm that will let us discard some parts of the image where we will not expect to find colon cancer polyps. The performance of our approach will be measured in terms of both non-informative areas elimination and polyps’ areas preserving. The results obtained show the importance of having correct non- informative region estimation in order to fasten the whole recognition process.

Title Sistema de deteccion de peatones Type Miscellaneous
Year 2010 Publication UAB Divulga Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract Durante la próxima década, los sistemas de protección de peatones jugarán un papel fundamental en el reto de mejorar la seguridad viaria. El objetivo principal de estos sistemas, detectar peatones en entornos urbanos, implica procesar imágenes de escenas exteriores desde una plataforma móvil para buscar objetos de aspecto variable como son las personas. Dadas estas dificultades, estos sistemas hacen uso de las últimas técnicas de visión por computador. Esta propuesta consiste en un sistema de tres módulos basado tanto en información 2D como en 3D. El primer módulo utiliza información 3D para hacer una estimación de los parámetros de la carretera y seleccionar regiones de interés que serán analizadas después. El segundo módulo utiliza un clasificador de ventanas 2D para etiquetar las mencionadas regiones como peatón o no peatón. El módulo final vuelve a utilizar de nuevo la información 3D para verificar las regiones clasificadas y, con información 2D, refinar los resultados finales. Los resultados experimentales son positivos tanto en rendimiento como en tiempo de cómputo.
