A First Approach to Activity Recognition Using Topic Models | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2009 | Publication | 12th International Conference of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 202 | Issue | Pages | 74 - 82 | |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | In this work, we present a first approach to activity patterns discovery by mean of topic models. Using motion data collected with a wearable device we prototype, TheBadge, we analyse raw accelerometer data using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), a particular instantiation of topic models. Results show that for particular values of the parameters necessary for applying LDA to a countinous dataset, good accuracies in activity classification can be achieved. | ||||

| Title |
A fine-grained approach to scene text script identification | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2016 | Publication | 12th IAPR Workshop on Document Analysis Systems | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 192-197 | ||
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | This paper focuses on the problem of script identification in unconstrained scenarios. Script identification is an important prerequisite to recognition, and an indispensable condition for automatic text understanding systems designed for multi-language environments. Although widely studied for document images and handwritten documents, it remains an almost unexplored territory for scene text images. We detail a novel method for script identification in natural images that combines convolutional features and the Naive-Bayes Nearest Neighbor classifier. The proposed framework efficiently exploits the discriminative power of small stroke-parts, in a fine-grained classification framework. In addition, we propose a new public benchmark dataset for the evaluation of joint text detection and script identification in natural scenes. Experiments done in this new dataset demonstrate that the proposed method yields state of the art results, while it generalizes well to different datasets and variable number of scripts. The evidence provided shows that multi-lingual scene text recognition in the wild is a viable proposition. Source code of the proposed method is made available online. | ||||

A Few-shot Learning Approach for Historical Encoded Manuscript Recognition | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2021 | Publication | 25th International Conference on Pattern Recognition | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 5413-5420 | ||
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | Encoded (or ciphered) manuscripts are a special type of historical documents that contain encrypted text. The automatic recognition of this kind of documents is challenging because: 1) the cipher alphabet changes from one document to another, 2) there is a lack of annotated corpus for training and 3) touching symbols make the symbol segmentation difficult and complex. To overcome these difficulties, we propose a novel method for handwritten ciphers recognition based on few-shot object detection. Our method first detects all symbols of a given alphabet in a line image, and then a decoding step maps the symbol similarity scores to the final sequence of transcribed symbols. By training on synthetic data, we show that the proposed architecture is able to recognize handwritten ciphers with unseen alphabets. In addition, if few labeled pages with the same alphabet are used for fine tuning, our method surpasses existing unsupervised and supervised HTR methods for ciphers recognition. | ||||

| Title |
A Few Shot Multi-representation Approach for N-Gram Spotting in Historical Manuscripts | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2022 | Publication | Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition. International Conference on Frontiers in Handwriting Recognition (ICFHR2022) | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 13639 | Issue | Pages | 3-12 | |
| Keywords | N-gram spotting; Few-shot learning; Multimodal understanding; Historical handwritten collections | ||||
| Abstract | Despite recent advances in automatic text recognition, the performance remains moderate when it comes to historical manuscripts. This is mainly because of the scarcity of available labelled data to train the data-hungry Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) models. The Keyword Spotting System (KWS) provides a valid alternative to HTR due to the reduction in error rate, but it is usually limited to a closed reference vocabulary. In this paper, we propose a few-shot learning paradigm for spotting sequences of a few characters (N-gram) that requires a small amount of labelled training data. We exhibit that recognition of important n-grams could reduce the system’s dependency on vocabulary. In this case, an out-of-vocabulary (OOV) word in an input handwritten line image could be a sequence of n-grams that belong to the lexicon. An extensive experimental evaluation of our proposed multi-representation approach was carried out on a subset of Bentham’s historical manuscript collections to obtain some really promising results in this direction. | ||||

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. | ||||

| Volume | 9117 | Issue | Pages | 569-576 | |
| Keywords | Eye tracking; Gaze estimation; Natural light; Webcam | ||||
| Abstract | We present an eye tracking system that works with regular webcams. We base our work on open source CVC Eye Tracker [7] and we propose a number of improvements and a novel gaze estimation method. The new method uses features extracted from iris segmentation and it does not fall into the traditional categorization of appearance–based/model–based methods. Our experiments show that our approach reduces the gaze estimation errors by 34 % in the horizontal direction and by 12 % in the vertical direction compared to the baseline system. | ||||

A Fast Matching Algorithm for Graph-Based Handwriting Recognition | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2013 | Publication | 9th IAPR – TC15 Workshop on Graph-based Representation in Pattern Recognition | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 7877 | Issue | Pages | 194-203 | |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | The recognition of unconstrained handwriting images is usually based on vectorial representation and statistical classification. Despite their high representational power, graphs are rarely used in this field due to a lack of efficient graph-based recognition methods. Recently, graph similarity features have been proposed to bridge the gap between structural representation and statistical classification by means of vector space embedding. This approach has shown a high performance in terms of accuracy but had shortcomings in terms of computational speed. The time complexity of the Hungarian algorithm that is used to approximate the edit distance between two handwriting graphs is demanding for a real-world scenario. In this paper, we propose a faster graph matching algorithm which is derived from the Hausdorff distance. On the historical Parzival database it is demonstrated that the proposed method achieves a speedup factor of 12.9 without significant loss in recognition accuracy. | ||||

A fast hierarchical method for multi‐script and arbitrary oriented scene text extraction | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2016 | Publication | International Journal on Document Analysis and Recognition | Abbreviated Journal | IJDAR |
| Volume | 19 | Issue | 4 | Pages | 335-349 |
| Keywords | scene text; segmentation; detection; hierarchical grouping; perceptual organisation | ||||
| Abstract | Typography and layout lead to the hierarchical organisation of text in words, text lines, paragraphs. This inherent structure is a key property of text in any script and language, which has nonetheless been minimally leveraged by existing text detection methods. This paper addresses the problem of text
segmentation in natural scenes from a hierarchical perspective. Contrary to existing methods, we make explicit use of text structure, aiming directly to the detection of region groupings corresponding to text within a hierarchy produced by an agglomerative similarity clustering process over individual regions. We propose an optimal way to construct such an hierarchy introducing a feature space designed to produce text group hypotheses with high recall and a novel stopping rule combining a discriminative classifier and a probabilistic measure of group meaningfulness based in perceptual organization. Results obtained over four standard datasets, covering text in variable orientations and different languages, demonstrate that our algorithm, while being trained in a single mixed dataset, outperforms state of the art methods in unconstrained scenarios. |

A Fast accurate Implicit Polynomial Fitting Approach | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2010 | Publication | 17th IEEE International Conference on Image Processing | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 1429–1432 | ||
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | This paper presents a novel hybrid approach that combines state of the art fitting algorithms: algebraic-based and geometric-based. It consists of two steps; first, the 3L algorithm is used as an initialization and then, the obtained result, is improved through a geometric approach. The adopted geometric approach is based on a distance estimation that avoids costly search for the real orthogonal distance. Experimental results are presented as well as quantitative comparisons. | ||||

| Volume | 21 | Issue | 1 | Pages | 115-119 |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | This article presents an adaptation of a factorization technique to tackle the photometric stereo problem. That is to recover the surface normals and reflectance of an object from a set of images obtained under different lighting conditions. The main contribution of the proposed approach is to consider pixels in shadow and saturated regions as missing data, in order to reduce their influence to the result. Concretely, an adapted Alternation technique is used to deal with missing data. Experimental results considering both synthetic and real images show the viability of the proposed factorization-based strategy. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A Distributed Camera System for Multi-Resolution Surveillance | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2009 | Publication | 3rd ACM/IEEE International Conference on Distributed Smart Cameras | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | 10.1109/ICDSC.2009.5289413 | ||||
| Abstract | We describe an architecture for a multi-camera, multi-resolution surveillance system. The aim is to support a set of distributed static and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras and visual tracking algorithms, together with a central supervisor unit. Each camera (and possibly pan-tilt device) has a dedicated process and processor. Asynchronous interprocess communications and archiving of data are achieved in a simple and effective way via a central repository, implemented using an SQL database. Visual tracking data from static views are stored dynamically into tables in the database via client calls to the SQL server. A supervisor process running on the SQL server determines if active zoom cameras should be dispatched to observe a particular target, and this message is effected via writing demands into another database table. We show results from a real implementation of the system comprising one static camera overviewing the environment under consideration and a PTZ camera operating under closed-loop velocity control, which uses a fast and robust level-set-based region tracker. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach and its feasibility to multi-camera systems for intelligent surveillance. | ||||

A Discriminative Non-Linear Manifold Learning Technique for Face Recognition | Type | Book Chapter | ||
| Year | 2011 | Publication | Informatics Engineering and Information Science | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | 254 | Issue | 6 | Pages | 339-353 |
| Keywords | |||||
| Abstract | In this paper we propose a novel non-linear discriminative analysis technique for manifold learning. The proposed approach is a discriminant version of Laplacian Eigenmaps which takes into account the class label information in order to guide the procedure of non-linear dimensionality reduction. By following the large margin concept, the graph Laplacian is split in two components: within-class graph and between-class graph to better characterize the discriminant property of the data.
Our approach has been tested on several challenging face databases and it has been conveniently compared with other linear and non-linear techniques. The experimental results confirm that our method outperforms, in general, the existing ones. Although we have concentrated in this paper on the face recognition problem, the proposed approach could also be applied to other category of objects characterized by large variance in their appearance. |
