Title Automatic Reminiscence Therapy for Dementia Type Conference Article
Year 2020 Publication 10th ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 383-387
Keywords
Abstract With people living longer than ever, the number of cases with dementia such as Alzheimer's disease increases steadily. It affects more than 46 million people worldwide, and it is estimated that in 2050 more than 100 million will be affected. While there are not effective treatments for these terminal diseases, therapies such as reminiscence, that stimulate memories from the past are recommended. Currently, reminiscence therapy takes place in care homes and is guided by a therapist or a carer. In this work, we present an AI-based solution to automatize the reminiscence therapy, which consists in a dialogue system that uses photos as input to generate questions. We run a usability case study with patients diagnosed of mild cognitive impairment that shows they found the system very entertaining and challenging. Overall, this paper presents how reminiscence therapy can be automatized by using machine learning, and deployed to smartphones and laptops, making the therapy more accessible to every person affected by dementia.

Title PBNS: Physically Based Neural Simulation for Unsupervised Garment Pose Space Deformation Type Journal Article
Year 2021 Publication ACM Transactions on Graphics Abbreviated Journal
Volume 40 Issue 6 Pages 1-14
Keywords
Abstract We present a methodology to automatically obtain Pose Space Deformation (PSD) basis for rigged garments through deep learning. Classical approaches rely on Physically Based Simulations (PBS) to animate clothes. These are general solutions that, given a sufficiently fine-grained discretization of space and time, can achieve highly realistic results. However, they are computationally expensive and any scene modification prompts the need of re-simulation. Linear Blend Skinning (LBS) with PSD offers a lightweight alternative to PBS, though, it needs huge volumes of data to learn proper PSD. We propose using deep learning, formulated as an implicit PBS, to unsupervisedly learn realistic cloth Pose Space Deformations in a constrained scenario: dressed humans. Furthermore, we show it is possible to train these models in an amount of time comparable to a PBS of a few sequences. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to propose a neural simulator for cloth.
While deep-based approaches in the domain are becoming a trend, these are data-hungry models. Moreover, authors often propose complex formulations to better learn wrinkles from PBS data. Supervised learning leads to physically inconsistent predictions that require collision solving to be used. Also, dependency on PBS data limits the scalability of these solutions, while their formulation hinders its applicability and compatibility. By proposing an unsupervised methodology to learn PSD for LBS models (3D animation standard), we overcome both of these drawbacks. Results obtained show cloth-consistency in the animated garments and meaningful pose-dependant folds and wrinkles. Our solution is extremely efficient, handles multiple layers of cloth, allows unsupervised outfit resizing and can be easily applied to any custom 3D avatar.

Title REACT2023: The First Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation Challenge Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the 31st ACM International Conference on Multimedia Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 9620–9624
Keywords
Abstract The Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation Challenge (REACT2023) is the first competition event focused on evaluating multimedia processing and machine learning techniques for generating human-appropriate facial reactions in various dyadic interaction scenarios, with all participants competing strictly under the same conditions. The goal of the challenge is to provide the first benchmark test set for multi-modal information processing and to foster collaboration among the audio, visual, and audio-visual behaviour analysis and behaviour generation (a.k.a generative AI) communities, to compare the relative merits of the approaches to automatic appropriate facial reaction generation under different spontaneous dyadic interaction conditions. This paper presents: (i) the novelties, contributions and guidelines of the REACT2023 challenge; (ii) the dataset utilized in the challenge; and (iii) the performance of the baseline systems on the two proposed sub-challenges: Offline Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation and Online Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation, respectively. The challenge baseline code is publicly available at https://github.com/reactmultimodalchallenge/baseline_react2023.

Title Classification of aesthetic natural scene images using statistical and semantic features Type Journal Article
Year 2023 Publication Multimedia Tools and Applications Abbreviated Journal MTAP
Volume 82 Issue 9 Pages 13507-13532
Keywords
Abstract Aesthetic image analysis is essential for improving the performance of multimedia image retrieval systems, especially from a repository of social media and multimedia content stored on mobile devices. This paper presents a novel method for classifying aesthetic natural scene images by studying the naturalness of image content using statistical features, and reading text in the images using semantic features. Unlike existing methods that focus only on image quality with human information, the proposed approach focuses on image features as well as text-based semantic features without human intervention to reduce the gap between subjectivity and objectivity in the classification. The aesthetic classes considered in this work are (i) Very Pleasant, (ii) Pleasant, (iii) Normal and (iv) Unpleasant. The naturalness is represented by features of focus, defocus, perceived brightness, perceived contrast, blurriness and noisiness, while semantics are represented by text recognition, description of the images and labels of images, profile pictures, and banner images. Furthermore, a deep learning model is proposed in a novel way to fuse statistical and semantic features for the classification of aesthetic natural scene images. Experiments on our own dataset and the standard datasets demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves 92.74%, 88.67% and 83.22% average classification rates on our own dataset, AVA dataset and CUHKPQ dataset, respectively. Furthermore, a comparative study of the proposed model with the existing methods shows that the proposed method is effective for the classification of aesthetic social media images.

Title Self-Supervised Visual Representations for Cross-Modal Retrieval Type Conference Article
Year 2019 Publication ACM International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 182–186
Keywords
Abstract Cross-modal retrieval methods have been significantly improved in last years with the use of deep neural networks and large-scale annotated datasets such as ImageNet and Places. However, collecting and annotating such datasets requires a tremendous amount of human effort and, besides, their annotations are limited to discrete sets of popular visual classes that may not be representative of the richer semantics found on large-scale cross-modal retrieval datasets. In this paper, we present a self-supervised cross-modal retrieval framework that leverages as training data the correlations between images and text on the entire set of Wikipedia articles. Our method consists in training a CNN to predict: (1) the semantic context of the article in which an image is more probable to appear as an illustration, and (2) the semantic context of its caption. Our experiments demonstrate that the proposed method is not only capable of learning discriminative visual representations for solving vision tasks like classification, but that the learned representations are better for cross-modal retrieval when compared to supervised pre-training of the network on the ImageNet dataset.

Title Generalized Zero-shot Learning with Multi-source Semantic Embeddings for Scene Recognition Type Conference Article
Year 2020 Publication 28th ACM International Conference on Multimedia Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract Recognizing visual categories from semantic descriptions is a promising way to extend the capability of a visual classifier beyond the concepts represented in the training data (i.e. seen categories). This problem is addressed by (generalized) zero-shot learning methods (GZSL), which leverage semantic descriptions that connect them to seen categories (e.g. label embedding, attributes). Conventional GZSL are designed mostly for object recognition. In this paper we focus on zero-shot scene recognition, a more challenging setting with hundreds of categories where their differences can be subtle and often localized in certain objects or regions. Conventional GZSL representations are not rich enough to capture these local discriminative differences. Addressing these limitations, we propose a feature generation framework with two novel components: 1) multiple sources of semantic information (i.e. attributes, word embeddings and descriptions), 2) region descriptions that can enhance scene discrimination. To generate synthetic visual features we propose a two-step generative approach, where local descriptions are sampled and used as conditions to generate visual features. The generated features are then aggregated and used together with real features to train a joint classifier. In order to evaluate the proposed method, we introduce a new dataset for zero-shot scene recognition with multi-semantic annotations. Experimental results on the proposed dataset and SUN Attribute dataset illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Title Learning Multi-Subset of Classes for Fine-Grained Food Recognition Type Conference Article
Year 2022 Publication 7th International Workshop on Multimedia Assisted Dietary Management Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 17–26
Keywords
Abstract Food image recognition is a complex computer vision task, because of the large number of fine-grained food classes. Fine-grained recognition tasks focus on learning subtle discriminative details to distinguish similar classes. In this paper, we introduce a new method to improve the classification of classes that are more difficult to discriminate based on Multi-Subsets learning. Using a pre-trained network, we organize classes in multiple subsets using a clustering technique. Later, we embed these subsets in a multi-head model structure. This structure has three distinguishable parts. First, we use several shared blocks to learn the generalized representation of the data. Second, we use multiple specialized blocks focusing on specific subsets that are difficult to distinguish. Lastly, we use a fully connected layer to weight the different subsets in an end-to-end manner by combining the neuron outputs. We validated our proposed method using two recent state-of-the-art vision transformers on three public food recognition datasets. Our method was successful in learning the confused classes better and we outperformed the state-of-the-art on the three datasets.

Title A User Perspective on HTR methods for the Automatic Transcription of Rare Scripts: The Case of Codex Runicus Just Accepted Type Journal Article
Year 2023 Publication ACM Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage Abbreviated Journal JOCCH
Volume 15 Issue 4 Pages 1-18
Keywords
Abstract Recent breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning and Document Image Analysis and Recognition have significantly eased the creation of digital libraries and the transcription of historical documents. However, for documents in rare scripts with few labelled training data available, current Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) systems are too constraint. Moreover, research on HTR often focuses on technical aspects only, and rarely puts emphasis on implementing software tools for scholars in Humanities. In this article, we describe, compare and analyse different transcription methods for rare scripts. We evaluate their performance in a real use case of a medieval manuscript written in the runic script (Codex Runicus) and discuss advantages and disadvantages of each method from the user perspective. From this exhaustive analysis and comparison with a fully manual transcription, we raise conclusions and provide recommendations to scholars interested in using automatic transcription tools.

Title Multi-scale decomposition-based CT-MR neurological image fusion using optimized bio-inspired spiking neural model with meta-heuristic optimization Type Journal Article
Year 2021 Publication International Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology Abbreviated Journal IMA
Volume 31 Issue 4 Pages 2170-2188
Keywords
Abstract Multi-modal medical image fusion plays an important role in clinical diagnosis and works as an assistance model for clinicians. In this paper, a computed tomography-magnetic resonance (CT-MR) image fusion model is proposed using an optimized bio-inspired spiking feedforward neural network in different decomposition domains. First, source images are decomposed into base (low-frequency) and detail (high-frequency) layer components. Low-frequency subbands are fused using texture energy measures to capture the local energy, contrast, and small edges in the fused image. High-frequency coefficients are fused using firing maps obtained by pixel-activated neural model with the optimized parameters using three different optimization techniques such as differential evolution, cuckoo search, and gray wolf optimization, individually. In the optimization model, a fitness function is computed based on the edge index of resultant fused images, which helps to extract and preserve sharp edges available in the source CT and MR images. To validate the fusion performance, a detailed comparative analysis is presented among the proposed and state-of-the-art methods in terms of quantitative and qualitative measures along with computational complexity. Experimental results show that the proposed method produces a significantly better visual quality of fused images meanwhile outperforms the existing methods.

Title Assessment of intracoronary stent location and extension in intravascular ultrasound sequences Type Journal Article
Year 2019 Publication Medical Physics Abbreviated Journal MEDPHYS
Volume 46 Issue 2 Pages 484-493
Keywords IVUS; malapposition; stent; ultrasound
Abstract PURPOSE:

An intraluminal coronary stent is a metal scaffold deployed in a stenotic artery during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In order to have an effective deployment, a stent should be optimally placed with regard to anatomical structures such as bifurcations and stenoses. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a catheter-based imaging technique generally used for PCI guiding and assessing the correct placement of the stent. A novel approach that automatically detects the boundaries and the position of the stent along the IVUS pullback is presented. Such a technique aims at optimizing the stent deployment.
METHODS:

The method requires the identification of the stable frames of the sequence and the reliable detection of stent struts. Using these data, a measure of likelihood for a frame to contain a stent is computed. Then, a robust binary representation of the presence of the stent in the pullback is obtained applying an iterative and multiscale quantization of the signal to symbols using the Symbolic Aggregate approXimation algorithm.
RESULTS:

The technique was extensively validated on a set of 103 IVUS of sequences of in vivo coronary arteries containing metallic and bioabsorbable stents acquired through an international multicentric collaboration across five clinical centers. The method was able to detect the stent position with an overall F-measure of 86.4%, a Jaccard index score of 75% and a mean distance of 2.5 mm from manually annotated stent boundaries, and in bioabsorbable stents with an overall F-measure of 88.6%, a Jaccard score of 77.7 and a mean distance of 1.5 mm from manually annotated stent boundaries. Additionally, a map indicating the distance between the lumen and the stent along the pullback is created in order to show the angular sectors of the sequence in which the malapposition is present.
CONCLUSIONS:

Results obtained comparing the automatic results vs the manual annotation of two observers shows that the method approaches the interobserver variability. Similar performances are obtained on both metallic and bioabsorbable stents, showing the flexibility and robustness of the method.

Title Transferring GANs: generating images from limited data Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 15th European Conference on Computer Vision Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11210 Issue Pages 220-236
Keywords Generative adversarial networks; Transfer learning; Domain adaptation; Image generation
Abstract ransferring knowledge of pre-trained networks to new domains by means of fine-tuning is a widely used practice for applications based on discriminative models. To the best of our knowledge this practice has not been studied within the context of generative deep networks. Therefore, we study domain adaptation applied to image generation with generative adversarial networks. We evaluate several aspects of domain adaptation, including the impact of target domain size, the relative distance between source and target domain, and the initialization of conditional GANs. Our results show that using knowledge from pre-trained networks can shorten the convergence time and can significantly improve the quality of the generated images, especially when target data is limited. We show that these conclusions can also be drawn for conditional GANs even when the pre-trained model was trained without conditioning. Our results also suggest that density is more important than diversity and a dataset with one or few densely sampled classes is a better source model than more diverse datasets such as ImageNet or Places.

Title Attend and Rectify: A Gated Attention Mechanism for Fine-Grained Recovery Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 15th European Conference on Computer Vision Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11212 Issue Pages 357-372
Keywords Deep Learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; Attention
Abstract We propose a novel attention mechanism to enhance Convolutional Neural Networks for fine-grained recognition. It learns to attend to lower-level feature activations without requiring part annotations and uses these activations to update and rectify the output likelihood distribution. In contrast to other approaches, the proposed mechanism is modular, architecture-independent and efficient both in terms of parameters and computation required. Experiments show that networks augmented with our approach systematically improve their classification accuracy and become more robust to clutter. As a result, Wide Residual Networks augmented with our proposal surpasses the state of the art classification accuracies in CIFAR-10, the Adience gender recognition task, Stanford dogs, and UEC Food-100.

Title Deep Structure Inference Network for Facial Action Unit Recognition Type Conference Article

Volume 11216 Issue Pages 309-324
Keywords Computer Vision; Machine Learning; Deep Learning; Facial Expression Analysis; Facial Action Units; Structure Inference
Abstract Facial expressions are combinations of basic components called Action Units (AU). Recognizing AUs is key for general facial expression analysis. Recently, efforts in automatic AU recognition have been dedicated to learning combinations of local features and to exploiting correlations between AUs. We propose a deep neural architecture that tackles both problems by combining learned local and global features in its initial stages and replicating a message passing algorithm between classes similar to a graphical model inference approach in later stages. We show that by training the model end-to-end with increased supervision we improve state-of-the-art by 5.3% and 8.2% performance on BP4D and DISFA datasets, respectively.

Title Single Shot Scene Text Retrieval Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication 15th European Conference on Computer Vision Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11218 Issue Pages 728-744
Keywords Image retrieval; Scene text; Word spotting; Convolutional Neural Networks; Region Proposals Networks; PHOC
Abstract Textual information found in scene images provides high level semantic information about the image and its context and it can be leveraged for better scene understanding. In this paper we address the problem of scene text retrieval: given a text query, the system must return all images containing the queried text. The novelty of the proposed model consists in the usage of a single shot CNN architecture that predicts at the same time bounding boxes and a compact text representation of the words in them. In this way, the text based image retrieval task can be casted as a simple nearest neighbor search of the query text representation over the outputs of the CNN over the entire image
database. Our experiments demonstrate that the proposed architecture
outperforms previous state-of-the-art while it offers a significant increase
in processing speed.
