  Title (up) 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 (up) Motion Priors for Efficient Bayesian Tracking in Human Sequence Evaluation Type Book Whole
  Year 2010 Publication PhD Thesis, Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona-CVC Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Recovering human motion by visual analysis is a challenging computer vision research
area with a lot of potential applications. Model-based tracking approaches, and in
particular particle lters, formulate the problem as a Bayesian inference task whose
aim is to sequentially estimate the distribution of the parameters of a human body
model over time. These approaches strongly rely on good dynamical and observation
models to predict and update congurations of the human body according to measurements from the image data. However, it is very dicult to design observation
models which extract useful and reliable information from image sequences robustly.
This results specially challenging in monocular tracking given that only one viewpoint
from the scene is available. Therefore, to overcome these limitations strong motion
priors are needed to guide the exploration of the state space.
The work presented in this Thesis is aimed to retrieve the 3D motion parameters
of a human body model from incomplete and noisy measurements of a monocular
image sequence. These measurements consist of the 2D positions of a reduced set of
joints in the image plane. Towards this end, we present a novel action-specic model
of human motion which is trained from several databases of real motion-captured
performances of an action, and is used as a priori knowledge within a particle ltering
scheme.
Body postures are represented by means of a simple and compact stick gure
model which uses direction cosines to represent the direction of body limbs in the 3D
Cartesian space. Then, for a given action, Principal Component Analysis is applied to
the training data to perform dimensionality reduction over the highly correlated input
data. Before the learning stage of the action model, the input motion performances
are synchronized by means of a novel dense matching algorithm based on Dynamic
Programming. The algorithm synchronizes all the motion sequences of the same
action class, nding an optimal solution in real-time.
Then, a probabilistic action model is learnt, based on the synchronized motion
examples, which captures the variability and temporal evolution of full-body motion
within a specic action. In particular, for each action, the parameters learnt are: a
representative manifold for the action consisting of its mean performance, the standard deviation from the mean performance, the mean observed direction vectors from
each motion subsequence of a given length and the expected error at a given time
instant.
Subsequently, the action-specic model is used as a priori knowledge on human
motion which improves the eciency and robustness of the overall particle filtering tracking framework. First, the dynamic model guides the particles according to similar
situations previously learnt. Then, the state space is constrained so only feasible
human postures are accepted as valid solutions at each time step. As a result, the
state space is explored more eciently as the particle set covers the most probable
body postures.
Finally, experiments are carried out using test sequences from several motion
databases. Results point out that our tracker scheme is able to estimate the rough
3D conguration of a full-body model providing only the 2D positions of a reduced
set of joints. Separate tests on the sequence synchronization method and the subsequence probabilistic matching technique are also provided.

  Title (up) Moving cast shadow detection Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication Electronic letters on computer vision and image analysis Abbreviated Journal ELCVIA  
  Volume 13 Issue 2 Pages 70-71  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Motion perception is an amazing innate ability of the creatures on the planet. This adroitness entails a functional advantage that enables species to compete better in the wild. The motion perception ability is usually employed at different levels, allowing from the simplest interaction with the ’physis’ up to the most transcendental survival tasks. Among the five classical perception system , vision is the most widely used in the motion perception field. Millions years of evolution have led to a highly specialized visual system in humans, which is characterized by a tremendous accuracy as well as an extraordinary robustness. Although humans and an immense diversity of species can distinguish moving object with a seeming simplicity, it has proven to be a difficult and non trivial problem from a computational perspective. In the field of Computer Vision, the detection of moving objects is a challenging and fundamental research area. This can be referred to as the ’origin’ of vast and numerous vision-based research sub-areas. Nevertheless, from the bottom to the top of this hierarchical analysis, the foundations still relies on when and where motion has occurred in an image. Pixels corresponding to moving objects in image sequences can be identified by measuring changes in their values. However, a pixel’s value (representing a combination of color and brightness) could also vary due to other factors such as: variation in scene illumination, camera noise and nonlinear sensor responses among others. The challenge lies in detecting if the changes in pixels’ value are caused by a genuine object movement or not. An additional challenging aspect in motion detection is represented by moving cast shadows. The paradox arises because a moving object and its cast shadow share similar motion patterns. However, a moving cast shadow is not a moving object. In fact, a shadow represents a photometric illumination effect caused by the relative position of the object with respect to the light sources. Shadow detection methods are mainly divided in two domains depending on the application field. One normally consists of static images where shadows are casted by static objects, whereas the second one is referred to image sequences where shadows are casted by moving objects. For the first case, shadows can provide additional geometric and semantic cues about shape and position of its casting object as well as the localization of the light source. Although the previous information can be extracted from static images as well as video sequences, the main focus in the second area is usually change detection, scene matching or surveillance. In this context, a shadow can severely affect with the analysis and interpretation of the scene. The work done in the thesis is focused on the second case, thus it addresses the problem of detection and removal of moving cast shadows in video sequences in order to enhance the detection of moving object.

  Title (up) Moving Cast Shadows Detection Methods for Video Surveillance Applications Type Book Chapter
  Year 2014 Publication Augmented Vision and Reality Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 6 Issue Pages 23-47  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Moving cast shadows are a major concern in today’s performance from broad range of many vision-based surveillance applications because they highly difficult the object classification task. Several shadow detection methods have been reported in the literature during the last years. They are mainly divided into two domains. One usually works with static images, whereas the second one uses image sequences, namely video content. In spite of the fact that both cases can be analogously analyzed, there is a difference in the application field. The first case, shadow detection methods can be exploited in order to obtain additional geometric and semantic cues about shape and position of its casting object (‘shape from shadows’) as well as the localization of the light source. While in the second one, the main purpose is usually change detection, scene matching or surveillance (usually in a background subtraction context). Shadows can in fact modify in a negative way the shape and color of the target object and therefore affect the performance of scene analysis and interpretation in many applications. This chapter wills mainly reviews shadow detection methods as well as their taxonomies related with the second case, thus aiming at those shadows which are associated with moving objects (moving shadows).

  Title (up) Moving object detection from mobile platforms using stereo data registration Type Book Chapter
  Year 2012 Publication Computational Intelligence paradigms in advanced pattern classification Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 386 Issue Pages 25-37  
  Keywords pedestrian detection  
  Abstract This chapter describes a robust approach for detecting moving objects from on-board stereo vision systems. It relies on a feature point quaternion-based registration, which avoids common problems that appear when computationally expensive iterative-based algorithms are used on dynamic environments. The proposed approach consists of three main stages. Initially, feature points are extracted and tracked through consecutive 2D frames. Then, a RANSAC based approach is used for registering two point sets, with known correspondences in the 3D space. The computed 3D rigid displacement is used to map two consecutive 3D point clouds into the same coordinate system by means of the quaternion method. Finally, moving objects correspond to those areas with large 3D registration errors. Experimental results show the viability of the proposed approach to detect moving objects like vehicles or pedestrians in different urban scenarios.

  Title (up) MPRNet: Multi-Path Residual Network for Lightweight Image Super Resolution Type Conference Article
  Year 2021 Publication IEEE Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 2703-2712  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Lightweight super resolution networks have extremely importance for real-world applications. In recent years several SR deep learning approaches with outstanding achievement have been introduced by sacrificing memory and computational cost. To overcome this problem, a novel lightweight super resolution network is proposed, which improves the SOTA performance in lightweight SR and performs roughly similar to computationally expensive networks. Multi-Path Residual Network designs with a set of Residual concatenation Blocks stacked with Adaptive Residual Blocks: ($i$) to adaptively extract informative features and learn more expressive spatial context information; ($ii$) to better leverage multi-level representations before up-sampling stage; and ($iii$) to allow an efficient information and gradient flow within the network. The proposed architecture also contains a new attention mechanism, Two-Fold Attention Module, to maximize the representation ability of the model. Extensive experiments show the superiority of our model against other SOTA SR approaches.

  Volume Issue Pages 3110 - 3115  
  Keywords  
  Abstract We present a hybrid algorithm for detection and tracking of text in natural scenes that goes beyond the fulldetection approaches in terms of time performance optimization.
A state-of-the-art scene text detection module based on Maximally Stable Extremal Regions (MSER) is used to detect text asynchronously, while on a separate thread detected text objects are tracked by MSER propagation. The cooperation of these two modules yields real time video processing at high frame rates even on low-resource devices.

  Title (up) MSIF: multi-spectrum image fusion method for cross-modality person re-identification Type Journal Article
  Year 2023 Publication International Journal of Machine Learning and Cybernetics Abbreviated Journal IJMLC  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Sketch-RGB cross-modality person re-identification (ReID) is a challenging task that aims to match a sketch portrait drawn by a professional artist with a full-body photo taken by surveillance equipment to deal with situations where the monitoring equipment is damaged at the accident scene. However, sketch portraits only provide highly abstract frontal body contour information and lack other important features such as color, pose, behavior, etc. The difference in saliency between the two modalities brings new challenges to cross-modality person ReID. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a novel dual-stream model for cross-modality person ReID, which is able to mine modality-invariant features to reduce the discrepancy between sketch and camera images end-to-end. More specifically, we propose a multi-spectrum image fusion (MSIF) method, which aims to exploit the image appearance changes brought by multiple spectrums and guide the network to mine modality-invariant commonalities during training. It only processes the spectrum of the input images without adding additional calculations and model complexity, which can be easily integrated into other models. Moreover, we introduce a joint structure via a generalized mean pooling (GMP) layer and a self-attention (SA) mechanism to balance background and texture information and obtain the regional features with a large amount of information in the image. To further shrink the intra-class distance, a weighted regularized triplet (WRT) loss is developed without introducing additional hyperparameters. The model was first evaluated on the PKU Sketch ReID dataset, and extensive experimental results show that the Rank-1/mAP accuracy of our method is 87.00%/91.12%, reaching the current state-of-the-art performance. To further validate the effectiveness of our approach in handling cross-modality person ReID, we conducted experiments on two commonly used IR-RGB datasets (SYSU-MM01 and RegDB). The obtained results show that our method achieves competitive performance. These results confirm the ability of our method to effectively process images from different modalities.

  Title (up) Multi-Centre, Multi-Vendor and Multi-Disease Cardiac Segmentation: The M&Ms Challenge Type Journal Article
  Year 2021 Publication IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging Abbreviated Journal TMI  
  Volume 40 Issue 12 Pages 3543-3554  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The emergence of deep learning has considerably advanced the state-of-the-art in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) segmentation. Many techniques have been proposed over the last few years, bringing the accuracy of automated segmentation close to human performance. However, these models have been all too often trained and validated using cardiac imaging samples from single clinical centres or homogeneous imaging protocols. This has prevented the development and validation of models that are generalizable across different clinical centres, imaging conditions or scanner vendors. To promote further research and scientific benchmarking in the field of generalizable deep learning for cardiac segmentation, this paper presents the results of the Multi-Centre, Multi-Vendor and Multi-Disease Cardiac Segmentation (M&Ms) Challenge, which was recently organized as part of the MICCAI 2020 Conference. A total of 14 teams submitted different solutions to the problem, combining various baseline models, data augmentation strategies, and domain adaptation techniques. The obtained results indicate the importance of intensity-driven data augmentation, as well as the need for further research to improve generalizability towards unseen scanner vendors or new imaging protocols. Furthermore, we present a new resource of 375 heterogeneous CMR datasets acquired by using four different scanner vendors in six hospitals and three different countries (Spain, Canada and Germany), which we provide as open-access for the community to enable future research in the field.
