Title Laplacian Derivative based Regularization for Optical Flow Estimation in Driving Scenario Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication 15th International Conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8048 Issue Pages 483-490
Keywords Optical flow; regularization; Driver Assistance Systems; Performance Evaluation
Abstract Existing state of the art optical flow approaches, which are evaluated on standard datasets such as Middlebury, not necessarily have a similar performance when evaluated on driving scenarios. This drop on performance is due to several challenges arising on real scenarios during driving. Towards this direction, in this paper, we propose a modification to the regularization term in a variational optical flow formulation, that notably improves the results, specially in driving scenarios. The proposed modification consists on using the Laplacian derivatives of flow components in the regularization term instead of gradients of flow components. We show the improvements in results on a standard real image sequences dataset (KITTI).

Title Multispectral Stereo Image Correspondence Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication 15th International Conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8048 Issue Pages 217-224
Keywords
Abstract This paper presents a novel multispectral stereo image correspondence approach. It is evaluated using a stereo rig constructed with a visible spectrum camera and a long wave infrared spectrum camera. The novelty of the proposed approach lies on the usage of Hough space as a correspondence search domain. In this way it avoids searching for correspondence in the original multispectral image domains, where information is low correlated, and a common domain is used. The proposed approach is intended to be used in outdoor urban scenarios, where images contain large amount of edges. These edges are used as distinctive characteristics for the matching in the Hough space. Experimental results are provided showing the validity of the proposed approach.

Title Stent shape estimation through a comprehensive interpretation of intravascular ultrasound images Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication 16th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8150 Issue 2 Pages 345-352
Keywords
Abstract We present a method for automatic struts detection and stent shape estimation in cross-sectional intravascular ultrasound images. A stent shape is first estimated through a comprehensive interpretation of the vessel morphology, performed using a supervised context-aware multi-class classification scheme. Then, the successive strut identification exploits both local appearance and the defined stent shape. The method is tested on 589 images obtained from 80 patients, achieving a F-measure of 74.1% and an averaged distance between manual and automatic struts of 0.10 mm.

Title Efficient Graph Construction for Label Propagation based Multi-observation Face Recognition Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication Human Behavior Understanding 4th International Workshop Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8212 Issue Pages 124-135
Keywords
Abstract Workshop on Human Behavior Understanding
Human-machine interaction is a hot topic nowadays in the communities of multimedia and computer vision. In this context, face recognition algorithms (used as primary cue for a person’s identity assessment) work well under controlled conditions but degrade significantly when tested in real-world environments. Recently, graph-based label propagation for multi-observation face recognition was proposed. However, the associated graphs were constructed in an ad-hoc manner (e.g., using the KNN graph) that cannot adapt optimally to the data. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for efficient and adaptive graph construction that can be used for multi-observation face recognition as well as for other recognition problems. Experimental results performed on Honda video face database, show a distinct advantage of the proposed method over the standard graph construction methods.

Title Fast Approximated Discriminative Common Vectors using rank-one SVD updates Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication 20th International Conference On Neural Information Processing Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8228 Issue III Pages 368-375
Keywords
Abstract An efficient incremental approach to the discriminative common vector (DCV) method for dimensionality reduction and classification is presented. The proposal consists of a rank-one update along with an adaptive restriction on the rank of the null space which leads to an approximate but convenient solution. The algorithm can be implemented very efficiently in terms of matrix operations and space complexity, which enables its use in large-scale dynamic application domains. Deep comparative experimentation using publicly available high dimensional image datasets has been carried out in order to properly assess the proposed algorithm against several recent incremental formulations.

Title On-line lumen centre detection in gastrointestinal and respiratory endoscopy Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication Second International Workshop Clinical Image-Based Procedures Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8361 Issue Pages 31-38
Keywords Lumen centre detection; Bronchoscopy; Colonoscopy
Abstract We present in this paper a novel lumen centre detection for gastrointestinal and respiratory endoscopic images. The proposed method is based on the appearance and geometry of the lumen, which we defined as the darkest image region which centre is a hub of image gradients. Experimental results validated on the first public annotated gastro-respiratory database prove the reliability of the method for a wide range of images (with precision over 95 %).

Title Chromatic induction and contrast masking: similar models, different goals? Type Conference Article
Year 2013 Publication Human Vision and Electronic Imaging XVIII Abbreviated Journal
Volume (up) 8651 Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract Normalization of signals coming from linear sensors is an ubiquitous mechanism of neural adaptation.1 Local interaction between sensors tuned to a particular feature at certain spatial position and neighbor sensors explains a wide range of psychophysical facts including (1) masking of spatial patterns, (2) non-linearities of motion sensors, (3) adaptation of color perception, (4) brightness and chromatic induction, and (5) image quality assessment. Although the above models have formal and qualitative similarities, it does not necessarily mean that the mechanisms involved are pursuing the same statistical goal. For instance, in the case of chromatic mechanisms (disregarding spatial information), different parameters in the normalization give rise to optimal discrimination or adaptation, and different non-linearities may give rise to error minimization or component independence. In the case of spatial sensors (disregarding color information), a number of studies have pointed out the benefits of masking in statistical independence terms. However, such statistical analysis has not been performed for spatio-chromatic induction models where chromatic perception depends on spatial configuration. In this work we investigate whether successful spatio-chromatic induction models,6 increase component independence similarly as previously reported for masking models. Mutual information analysis suggests that seeking an efficient chromatic representation may explain the prevalence of induction effects in spatially simple images. © (2013) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
