Title Boosting the Handwritten Word Spotting Experience by Including the User in the Loop Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal PR
Volume 47 Issue 3 Pages 1063–1072
Keywords Handwritten word spotting; Query by example; Relevance feedback; Query fusion; Multidimensional scaling
Abstract In this paper, we study the effect of taking the user into account in a query-by-example handwritten word spotting framework. Several off-the-shelf query fusion and relevance feedback strategies have been tested in the handwritten word spotting context. The increase in terms of precision when the user is included in the loop is assessed using two datasets of historical handwritten documents and two baseline word spotting approaches both based on the bag-of-visual-words model. We finally present two alternative ways of presenting the results to the user that might be more attractive and suitable to the user's needs than the classic ranked list.

Title Flowchart Recognition for Non-Textual Information Retrieval in Patent Search Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Information Retrieval Abbreviated Journal IR
Volume 17 Issue 5-6 Pages 545-562
Keywords Flowchart recognition; Patent documents; Text/graphics separation; Raster-to-vector conversion; Symbol recognition
Abstract Relatively little research has been done on the topic of patent image retrieval and in general in most of the approaches the retrieval is performed in terms of a similarity measure between the query image and the images in the corpus. However, systems aimed at overcoming the semantic gap between the visual description of patent images and their conveyed concepts would be very helpful for patent professionals. In this paper we present a flowchart recognition method aimed at achieving a structured representation of flowchart images that can be further queried semantically. The proposed method was submitted to the CLEF-IP 2012 flowchart recognition task. We report the obtained results on this dataset.

Title Interactive Document Retrieval and Classification. Type Book Chapter
Year 2013 Publication Multimodal Interaction in Image and Video Applications Abbreviated Journal
Volume 48 Issue Pages 17-30
Keywords
Abstract In this chapter we describe a system for document retrieval and classification following the interactive-predictive framework. In particular, the system addresses two different scenarios of document analysis: document classification based on visual appearance and logo detection. These two classical problems of document analysis are formulated following the interactive-predictive model, taking the user interaction into account to make easier the process of annotating and labelling the documents. A system implementing this model in a real scenario is presented and analyzed. This system also takes advantage of active learning techniques to speed up the task of labelling the documents.

Title Multi-task Bilinear Classifiers for Visual Domain Adaptation Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems Workshop Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Domain Adaptation; Pedestrian Detection; ADAS
Abstract We propose a method that aims to lessen the significant accuracy degradation
that a discriminative classifier can suffer when it is trained in a specific domain (source domain) and applied in a different one (target domain). The principal reason for this degradation is the discrepancies in the distribution of the features that feed the classifier in different domains. Therefore, we propose a domain adaptation method that maps the features from the different domains into a common subspace and learns a discriminative domain-invariant classifier within it. Our algorithm combines bilinear classifiers and multi-task learning for domain adaptation.
The bilinear classifier encodes the feature transformation and classification
parameters by a matrix decomposition. In this way, specific feature transformations for multiple domains and a shared classifier are jointly learned in a multi-task learning framework. Focusing on domain adaptation for visual object detection, we apply this method to the state-of-the-art deformable part-based model for cross domain pedestrian detection. Experimental results show that our method significantly avoids the domain drift and improves the accuracy when compared to several baselines.

Title State-driven particle filter for multi-person tracking Type Conference Article
Year 2012 Publication 11th International Conference on Advanced Concepts for Intelligent Vision Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume 7517 Issue Pages 467-478
Keywords human tracking
Abstract Multi-person tracking can be exploited in applications such as driver assistance, surveillance, multimedia and human-robot interaction. With the help of human detectors, particle filters offer a robust method able to filter noisy detections and provide temporal coherence. However, some traditional problems such as occlusions with other targets or the scene, temporal drifting or even the lost targets detection are rarely considered, making the systems performance decrease. Some authors propose to overcome these problems using heuristics not explained
and formalized in the papers, for instance by defining exceptions to the model updating depending on tracks overlapping. In this paper we propose to formalize these events by the use of a state-graph, defining the current state of the track (e.g., potential , tracked, occluded or lost) and the transitions between states in an explicit way. This approach has the advantage of linking track actions such as the online underlying models updating, which gives flexibility to the system. It provides an explicit representation to adapt the multiple parallel trackers depending on the context, i.e., each track can make use of a specific filtering strategy, dynamic model, number of particles, etc. depending on its state. We implement this technique in a single-camera multi-person tracker and test
it in public video sequences.

Title New Approach for Symbol Recognition Combining Shape Context of Interest Points with Sparse Representation Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication 12th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 265-269
Keywords
Abstract In this paper, we propose a new approach for symbol description. Our method is built based on the combination of shape context of interest points descriptor and sparse representation. More specifically, we first learn a dictionary describing shape context of interest point descriptors. Then, based on information retrieval techniques, we build a vector model for each symbol based on its sparse representation in a visual vocabulary whose visual words are columns in the learneddictionary. The retrieval task is performed by ranking symbols based on similarity between vector models. Evaluation of our method, using benchmark datasets, demonstrates the validity of our approach and shows that it outperforms related state-of-theart methods.
