	Title	A Featureless and Stochastic Approach to On-board Stereo Vision System Pose			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2009	Publication	Image and Vision Computing	Abbreviated Journal	IMAVIS
	Volume	27	Issue	9	Pages	1382–1393
	Keywords	On-board stereo vision system; Pose estimation; Featureless approach; Particle filtering; Image warping
	Abstract	This paper presents a direct and stochastic technique for real-time estimation of on-board stereo head’s position and orientation. Unlike existing works which rely on feature extraction either in the image domain or in 3D space, our proposed approach directly estimates the unknown parameters from the stream of stereo pairs’ brightness. The pose parameters are tracked using the particle filtering framework which implicitly enforces the smoothness constraints on the estimated parameters. The proposed technique can be used with a driver assistance applications as well as with augmented reality applications. Extended experiments on urban environments with different road geometries are presented. Comparisons with a 3D data-based approach are presented. Moreover, we provide a performance study aiming at evaluating the accuracy of the proposed approach.

	Title	Separability of Ternary Codes for Sparse Designs of Error-Correcting Output Codes			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2009	Publication	Pattern Recognition Letters	Abbreviated Journal	PRL
	Volume	30	Issue	3	Pages	285–297
	Keywords
	Abstract	Error Correcting Output Codes (ECOC) represent a successful framework to deal with multi-class categorization problems based on combining binary classiﬁers. In this paper, we present a new formulation of the ternary ECOC distance and the error-correcting capabilities in the ternary ECOC framework. Based on the new measure, we stress on how to design coding matrices preventing codiﬁcation ambiguity and propose a new Sparse Random coding matrix with ternary distance maximization. The results on the UCI Repository and in a real speed trafﬁc categorization problem show that when the coding design satisﬁes the new ternary measures, signiﬁcant performance improvement is obtained independently of the decoding strategy applied.

	Title	You are Fired! Nonverbal Role Analysis in Competitive Meetings			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2009	Publication	IEEE International Conference on Audio, Speech and Signal Processing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1949–1952
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper addresses the problem of social interaction analysis in competitive meetings, using nonverbal cues. For our study, we made use of ldquoThe Apprenticerdquo reality TV show, which features a competition for a real, highly paid corporate job. Our analysis is centered around two tasks regarding a person's role in a meeting: predicting the person with the highest status and predicting the fired candidates. The current study was carried out using nonverbal audio cues. Results obtained from the analysis of a full season of the show, representing around 90 minutes of audio data, are very promising (up to 85.7% of accuracy in the first case and up to 92.8% in the second case). Our approach is based only on the nonverbal interaction dynamics during the meeting without relying on the spoken words.

	Title	Boosted Online Learning for Face Recognition			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2009	Publication	IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics part B	Abbreviated Journal	TSMCB
	Volume	39	Issue	2	Pages	530–538
	Keywords
	Abstract	Face recognition applications commonly suffer from three main drawbacks: a reduced training set, information lying in high-dimensional subspaces, and the need to incorporate new people to recognize. In the recent literature, the extension of a face classifier in order to include new people in the model has been solved using online feature extraction techniques. The most successful approaches of those are the extensions of the principal component analysis or the linear discriminant analysis. In the current paper, a new online boosting algorithm is introduced: a face recognition method that extends a boosting-based classifier by adding new classes while avoiding the need of retraining the classifier each time a new person joins the system. The classifier is learned using the multitask learning principle where multiple verification tasks are trained together sharing the same feature space. The new classes are added taking advantage of the structure learned previously, being the addition of new classes not computationally demanding. The present proposal has been (experimentally) validated with two different facial data sets by comparing our approach with the current state-of-the-art techniques. The results show that the proposed online boosting algorithm fares better in terms of final accuracy. In addition, the global performance does not decrease drastically even when the number of classes of the base problem is multiplied by eight.

	Title	Psychophysical measurements to model inter-colour regions of colour-naming space			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2009	Publication	Journal of Imaging Science and Technology	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	53	Issue	3	Pages	031106 (8 pages)
	Keywords	image processing; Analysis
	Abstract	JCR Impact Factor 2009: 0.391 In this paper, we present a fuzzy-set of parametric functions which segment the CIE lab space into eleven regions which correspond to the group of common universal categories present in all evolved languages as identified by anthropologists and linguists. The set of functions is intended to model a color-name assignment task by humans and differs from other models in its emphasis on the inter-color boundary regions, which were explicitly measured by means of a psychophysics experiment. In our particular implementation, the CIE lab space was segmented into eleven color categories using a Triple Sigmoid as the fuzzy sets basis, whose parameters are included in this paper. The modelâ€™s parameters were adjusted according to the psychophysical results of a yes/no discrimination paradigm where observers had to choose (English) names for isoluminant colors belonging to regions in-between neighboring categories. These colors were presented on a calibrated CRT monitor (14-bit x 3 precision). The experimental results show that inter- color boundary regions are much less defined than expected and color samples other than those near the most representatives are needed to define the position and shape of boundaries between categories. The extended set of model parameters is given as a table.

	Title	On Tracking Inside Groups			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2010	Publication	Machine Vision and Applications	Abbreviated Journal	MVA
	Volume	21	Issue	2	Pages	113–127
	Keywords
	Abstract	This work develops a new architecture for multiple-target tracking in unconstrained dynamic scenes, which consists of a detection level which feeds a two-stage tracking system. A remarkable characteristic of the system is its ability to track several targets while they group and split, without using 3D information. Thus, special attention is given to the feature-selection and appearance-computation modules, and to those modules involved in tracking through groups. The system aims to work as a stand-alone application in complex and dynamic scenarios. No a-priori knowledge about either the scene or the targets, based on a previous training period, is used. Hence, the scenario is completely unknown beforehand. Successful tracking has been demonstrated in well-known databases of both indoor and outdoor scenarios. Accurate and robust localisations have been yielded during long-term target merging and occlusions.

	Title	Action-specific motion prior for efficient bayesian 3D human body tracking			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2009	Publication	Pattern Recognition	Abbreviated Journal	PR
	Volume	42	Issue	11	Pages	2907–2921
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this paper, we aim to reconstruct the 3D motion parameters of a human body model from the known 2D positions of a reduced set of joints in the image plane. Towards this end, an action-speciﬁc motion model is trained from a database of real motion-captured performances. The learnt motion model is used within a particle ﬁltering framework as a priori knowledge on human motion. First, our dynamic model guides the particles according to similar situations previously learnt. Then, the solution space is constrained so only feasible human postures are accepted as valid solutions at each time step. As a result, we are able to track the 3D conﬁguration of the full human body from several cycles of walking motion sequences using only the 2D positions of a very reduced set of joints from lateral or frontal viewpoints.

	Title	Toward robust myocardial blush grade estimation in contrast angiography			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2009	Publication	4th Iberian Conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	5524	Issue		Pages	249–256
	Keywords
	Abstract	The assessment of Myocardial Blush Grade after primary angioplasty is a precious diagnostic tool to understand if the patient needs further medication or the use of specifics drugs. Unfortunately, the assessment of MBG is difficult for non highly specialized staff. Experimental data show that there is poor correlation between MBG assessment of low and high specialized staff, thus reducing its applicability. This paper proposes a method able to achieve an objective measure of MBG, or a set of parameters that correlates with the MBG. The method tracks the blush area starting from just one single frame tagged by the physician. As a consequence, the blush area is kept isolated from contaminating phenomena such as diaphragm and arteries movements. We also present a method to extract four parameters that are expected to correlate with the MBG. Preliminary results show that the method is capable of extracting interesting information regarding the behavior of the myocardial perfusion.

	Title	Enhancing In-Vitro IVUS Data for Tissue Characterization			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2009	Publication	4th Iberian Conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	5524	Issue		Pages	241–248
	Keywords
	Abstract	Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) data validation is usually performed by comparing post-mortem (in-vitro) IVUS data and corresponding histological analysis of the tissue, obtaining a reliable ground truth. The main drawback of this method is the few number of available study cases due to the complex procedure of histological analysis. In this work we propose a novel semi-supervised approach to enhance the in-vitro training set by including examples from in-vivo coronary plaques data set. For this purpose, a Sequential Floating Forward Selection method is applied on in-vivo data and plaque characterization performances are evaluated by Leave-One-Patient-Out cross-validation technique. Supervised data inclusion improves global classification accuracy from 89.39% to 91.82%.
