Sketchable Histograms of Oriented Gradients for Object Detection | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | 17th Iberomerican Conference on Pattern Recognition | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 7441 | Issue | Pages | 374-381 | |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | In this paper we investigate a new representation approach for visual object recognition. The new representation, called sketchable-HoG, extends the classical histogram of oriented gradients (HoG) feature by adding two different aspects: the stability of the majority orientation and the continuity of gradient orientations. In this way, the sketchable-HoG locally characterizes the complexity of an object model and introduces global structure information while still keeping simplicity, compactness and robustness. We evaluated the proposed image descriptor on publicly Catltech 101 dataset. The obtained results outperforms classical HoG descriptor as well as other reported descriptors in the literature. | ||||

Social Network Extraction and Analysis Based on Multimodal Dyadic Interaction | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | Sensors | Abbreviated Journal | SENS |
| Volume | 12 | Issue | 2 | Pages | 1702-1719 |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | IF=1.77 (2010)
Social interactions are a very important component in peopleís lives. Social network analysis has become a common technique used to model and quantify the properties of social interactions. In this paper, we propose an integrated framework to explore the characteristics of a social network extracted from multimodal dyadic interactions. For our study, we used a set of videos belonging to New York Timesí Blogging Heads opinion blog. The Social Network is represented as an oriented graph, whose directed links are determined by the Influence Model. The linksí weights are a measure of the ìinfluenceî a person has over the other. The states of the Influence Model encode automatically extracted audio/visual features from our videos using state-of-the art algorithms. Our results are reported in terms of accuracy of audio/visual data fusion for speaker segmentation and centrality measures used to characterize the extracted social network. |

Spars Color Interest Points for Image Retrieval and Object Categorization | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | IEEE Transactions on Image Processing | Abbreviated Journal | TIP |
| Volume | 21 | Issue | 5 | Pages | 2681-2692 |

| Abstract | Impact factor 2010: 2.92
IF 2011/2012?: 3.32 Interest point detection is an important research area in the field of image processing and computer vision. In particular, image retrieval and object categorization heavily rely on interest point detection from which local image descriptors are computed for image matching. In general, interest points are based on luminance, and color has been largely ignored. However, the use of color increases the distinctiveness of interest points. The use of color may therefore provide selective search reducing the total number of interest points used for image matching. This paper proposes color interest points for sparse image representation. To reduce the sensitivity to varying imaging conditions, light-invariant interest points are introduced. Color statistics based on occurrence probability lead to color boosted points, which are obtained through saliency-based feature selection. Furthermore, a principal component analysis-based scale selection method is proposed, which gives a robust scale estimation per interest point. From large-scale experiments, it is shown that the proposed color interest point detector has higher repeatability than a luminance-based one. Furthermore, in the context of image retrieval, a reduced and predictable number of color features show an increase in performance compared to state-of-the-art interest points. Finally, in the context of object recognition, for the Pascal VOC 2007 challenge, our method gives comparable performance to state-of-the-art methods using only a small fraction of the features, reducing the computing time considerably. |

Spectral sharpening by spherical sampling | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | Journal of the Optical Society of America A | Abbreviated Journal | JOSA A |
| Volume | 29 | Issue | 7 | Pages | 1199-1210 |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | There are many works in color that assume illumination change can be modeled by multiplying sensor responses by individual scaling factors. The early research in this area is sometimes grouped under the heading “von Kries adaptation”: the scaling factors are applied to the cone responses. In more recent studies, both in psychophysics and in computational analysis, it has been proposed that scaling factors should be applied to linear combinations of the cones that have narrower support: they should be applied to the so-called “sharp sensors.” In this paper, we generalize the computational approach to spectral sharpening in three important ways. First, we introduce spherical sampling as a tool that allows us to enumerate in a principled way all linear combinations of the cones. This allows us to, second, find the optimal sharp sensors that minimize a variety of error measures including CIE Delta E (previous work on spectral sharpening minimized RMS) and color ratio stability. Lastly, we extend the spherical sampling paradigm to the multispectral case. Here the objective is to model the interaction of light and surface in terms of color signal spectra. Spherical sampling is shown to improve on the state of the art. | ||||

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. |

| Year | 2012 | Publication | High Performance Computing and Simulation, International Conference on | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 182-187 | ||
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | This paper presents an automatic method for external and internal segmentation of the caudate nucleus in Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) based on statistical and structural machine learning approaches. This method is applied in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) diagnosis. The external segmentation method adapts the Graph Cut energy-minimization model to make it suitable for segmenting small, low-contrast structures, such as the caudate nucleus. In particular, new energy function data and boundary potentials are defined and a supervised energy term based on contextual brain structures is added. Furthermore, the internal segmentation method learns a classifier based on shape features of the Region of Interest (ROI) in MRI slices. The results show accurate external and internal caudate segmentation in a real data set and similar performance of ADHD diagnostic test to manual annotation. | ||||

Switching off brightness induction through induction-reversed images | Type | Abstract | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | Perception | Abbreviated Journal | PER |
| Volume | 41 | Issue | Pages | 208 | |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | Brightness induction is the modulation of the perceived intensity of an
area by the luminance of surrounding areas. Although V1 is traditionally regarded as an area mostly responsive to retinal information, neurophysiological evidence suggests that it may explicitly represent brightness information. In this work, we investigate possible neural mechanisms underlying brightness induction. To this end, we consider the model by Z Li (1999 Computation and Neural Systems10187-212) which is constrained by neurophysiological data and focuses on the part of V1 responsible for contextual influences. This model, which has proven to account for phenomena such as contour detection and preattentive segmentation, shares with brightness induction the relevant effect of contextual influences. Importantly, the input to our network model derives from a complete multiscale and multiorientation wavelet decomposition, which makes it possible to recover an image reflecting the perceived luminance and successfully accounts for well known psychophysical effects for both static and dynamic contexts. By further considering inverse problem techniques we define induction-reversed images: given a target image, we build an image whose perceived luminance matches the actual luminance of the original stimulus, thus effectively canceling out brightness induction effects. We suggest that induction-reversed images may help remove undesired perceptual effects and can find potential applications in fields such as radiological image interpretation |

Synthetic ground truth dataset to detect shadow cast by static objects in outdoor | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication | 1st International Workshop on Visual Interfaces for Ground Truth Collection in Computer Vision Applications | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | art. 11 | ||
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | In this paper, we propose a precise synthetic ground truth dataset to study the problem of detection of the shadows cast by static objects in outdoor environments during extended periods of time (days). For our dataset, we have created a virtual scenario using a rendering software. To increase the realism of the simulated environment, we have defined the scenario in a precise geographical location. In our dataset the sun is by far the main illumination source. The sun position during the simulation time takes into consideration factors related to the geographical location, such as the latitude, longitude, elevation above sea level, and precise image capturing day and time. In our simulation the camera remains fixed. The dataset consists of seven days of simulation, from 10:00am to 5:00pm. Images are captured every 10 seconds. The shadows' ground truth is automatically computed by the rendering software. | ||||

Text line extraction in graphical documents using background and foreground | Type | Journal Article | ||

| Volume | 15 | Issue | 3 | Pages | 227-241 |

| Abstract | 0,405 JCR
In graphical documents (e.g., maps, engineering drawings), artistic documents etc., the text lines are annotated in multiple orientations or curvilinear way to illustrate different locations or symbols. For the optical character recognition of such documents, individual text lines from the documents need to be extracted. In this paper, we propose a novel method to segment such text lines and the method is based on the foreground and background information of the text components. To effectively utilize the background information, a water reservoir concept is used here. In the proposed scheme, at first, individual components are detected and grouped into character clusters in a hierarchical way using size and positional information. Next, the clusters are extended in two extreme sides to determine potential candidate regions. Finally, with the help of these candidate regions, individual lines are extracted. The experimental results are presented on different datasets of graphical documents, camera-based warped documents, noisy images containing seals, etc. The results demonstrate that our approach is robust and invariant to size and orientation of the text lines present in the document. |

| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | Graphics Recognition; Layout Analysis; Document Understandin | ||||
| Abstract | In this paper, we propose a new approach to extract text regions from graphical documents. In our method, we first empirically construct two sequences of learned dictionaries for the text and graphical parts respectively. Then, we compute the sparse representations of all different sizes and non-overlapped document patches in these learned dictionaries. Based on these representations, each patch can be classified into the text or graphic category by comparing its reconstruction errors. Same-sized patches in one category are then merged together to define the corresponding text or graphic layers which are combined to createfinal text/graphic layer. Finally, in a post-processing step, text regions are further filtered out by using some learned thresholds. | ||||
