Abstract: Presently, man-machine interface development is a widespread research activity. A system to understand hand drawn architectural drawings in a CAD environment is presented in this paper. To understand a document, we have to identify its building elements and their structural properties. An attributed graph structure is chosen as a symbolic representation of the input document and the patterns to recognize in it. An inexact subgraph isomorphism procedure using relaxation labeling techniques is performed. In this paper we focus on how to speed up the matching. There is a building element, the walls, characterized by a hatching pattern. Using a straight line Hough transform (SLHT)-based method, we recognize this pattern, characterized by parallel straight lines, and remove from the input graph the edges belonging to this pattern. The isomorphism is then applied to the remainder of the input graph. When all the building elements have been recognized, the document is redrawn, correcting the inaccurate strokes obtained from a hand-drawn input.
Keywords: Line drawings – Hough transform – Graph matching – CAD systems – Graphics recognition

Abstract: Deep understanding of myocardial structure may help to link form and funcion of the heart unraveling crucial knowledge for medical and surgical clinical procedures and studies. In this work we introduce two visualization techniques based on DT-MRI streamlining able to decipher interesting properties of the architectural organization of the heart.

Abstract: En esta comunicación presentamos una experiencia en Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos (Project
Based Learning – PBL) realizada los últimos cuatro años (cursos del 2004-05 al 2007-08) en Gráficos
por Computador 2, asignatura optativa de tercer curso de Ingeniería Informática, titulación impartida
en la Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería (ETSE) de la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona
(UAB).
Fruto de la constante voluntad de mejora de la organización ABP de nuestra asignatura nos decidimos
a utilizar una herramienta LMS (Learning Management System) basada en Moodle y adaptada por
nosotros llamada Caronte para poder gestionar la documentación generada en ABP, y añadir una
componente semipresencial a la asignatura.
En primer lugar se presenta la organización de nuestra asignatura, basada proponer al alumno dos
itinerarios para cursarla: el itinerario ABP y el itinerario basado en clases magistrales i examen que
llamaremos TPPE (Teoría, Problemas, Prácticas, Examen). La dinámica ABP nos genera una cantidad
importante de documentación entre los grupos y el profesor, aparte de el feedback que el profesor
genera a los alumnos.
En la segunda parte del artículo presentamos los espacios docentes electrónicos de ambos itinerarios,
con los que trabajan los alumnos.
Finalmente, mostramos los resultados obtenidos de alumnos matriculados y de encuestas de valoración
realizados por los alumnos para finalmente exponer las conclusiones de estos cuatro años de
experiencia en ABP y en el uso de recursos virtuales en ABP, así como plantear mejoras y temas de
discusión sobre ABP.

Josep Llados, Horst Bunke, & Enric Marti. (1997). "Finding rotational symmetries by cyclic string matching " . Pattern recognition letters, 18(14), 1435–1442.
Abstract: Symmetry is an important shape feature. In this paper, a simple and fast method to detect perfect and distorted rotational symmetries of 2D objects is described. The boundary of a shape is polygonally approximated and represented as a string. Rotational symmetries are found by cyclic string matching between two identical copies of the shape string. The set of minimum cost edit sequences that transform the shape string to a cyclically shifted version of itself define the rotational symmetry and its order. Finally, a modification of the algorithm is proposed to detect reflectional symmetries. Some experimental results are presented to show the reliability of the proposed algorithm
Keywords: Rotational symmetry; Reflectional symmetry; String matching

Ernest Valveny, & Enric Marti. (2003). "A model for image generation and symbol recognition through the deformation of lineal shapes " . Pattern Recognition Letters, 24(15), 2857–2867.
Abstract: We describe a general framework for the recognition of distorted images of lineal shapes, which relies on three items: a model to represent lineal shapes and their deformations, a model for the generation of distorted binary images and the combination of both models in a common probabilistic framework, where the generation of deformations is related to an internal energy, and the generation of binary images to an external energy. Then, recognition consists in the minimization of a global energy function, performed by using the EM algorithm. This general framework has been applied to the recognition of hand-drawn lineal symbols in graphic documents.

Ernest Valveny, & Enric Marti. (2000). "Hand-drawn symbol recognition in graphic documents using deformable template matching and a Bayesian framework " In Proc. 15th Int Pattern Recognition Conf (Vol. 2, pp. 239–242).
Abstract: Hand-drawn symbols can take many different and distorted shapes from their ideal representation. Then, very flexible methods are needed to be able to handle unconstrained drawings. We propose here to extend our previous work in hand-drawn symbol recognition based on a Bayesian framework and deformable template matching. This approach gets flexibility enough to fit distorted shapes in the drawing while keeping fidelity to the ideal shape of the symbol. In this work, we define the similarity measure between an image and a symbol based on the distance from every pixel in the image to the lines in the symbol. Matching is carried out using an implementation of the EM algorithm. Thus, we can improve recognition rates and computation time with respect to our previous formulation based on a simulated annealing algorithm.

Petia Radeva, Joan Serrat, & Enric Marti. (1995). "A snake for model-based segmentation " In Proc. Conf. Fifth Int Computer Vision (pp. 816–821).
Abstract: Despite the promising results of numerous applications, the hitherto proposed snake techniques share some common problems: snake attraction by spurious edge points, snake degeneration (shrinking and attening), convergence and stability of the deformation process, snake initialization and local determination of the parameters of elasticity. We argue here that these problems can be solved only when all the snake aspects are considered. The snakes proposed here implement a new potential eld and external force in order to provide a deformation convergence, attraction by both near and far edges as well as snake behaviour selective according to the edge orientation. Furthermore, we conclude that in the case of model-based seg mentation, the internal force should include structural information about the expected snake shape. Experiments using this kind of snakes for segmenting bones in complex hand radiographs show a signicant improvement.
Keywords: snakes; elastic matching; model-based segmenta tion
