Abstract: Retinal images are routinely used in ophthalmology to study the optical nerve head and the retina. To assess objectively the evolution of an illness, images taken at different times must be registered. Most methods so far have been designed specifically for a single image modality, like temporal series or stereo pairs of angiographies, fluorescein angiographies or scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) images, which makes them prone to fail when conditions vary. In contrast, the method we propose has shown to be accurate and reliable on all the former modalities. It has been adapted from the 3D registration of CT and MR image to 2D. Relevant features (also known as landmarks) are extracted by means of a robust creaseness operator, and resulting images are iteratively transformed until a maximum in their correlation is achieved. Our method has succeeded in more than 100 pairs tried so far, in all cases including also the scaling as a parameter to be optimized

Abstract: A real-time vision system for TV screen quality inspection is introduced. The whole system consists of eight cameras and one processor per camera. It acquires and processes 112 images in 6 seconds. The defects to be inspected can be grouped into four main categories (bubble, line-out, line reduction and landing) although there exists a large variability among each particular type of defect. The complexity of the whole inspection process has been reduced by dividing images into smaller ones and grouping the defects into frequency and intensity relevant ones. Tools such as mathematical morphology, Fourier transform, profile analysis and classification have been used. The performance of the system has been successfully proved against human operators in normal production conditions.

Abstract: Human detection is a key component in fields such as advanced driving assistance and video surveillance. However, even detecting non-occluded standing humans remains a challenge of intensive research. Finding good features to build human models for further detection is probably one of the most important issues to face. Currently, shape, texture and motion features have deserve extensive attention in the literature. However, color-based features, which are important in other domains (e.g., image categorization), have received much less attention. In fact, the use of RGB color space has become a kind of choice by default. The focus has been put in developing first and second order features on top of RGB space (e.g., HOG and co-occurrence matrices, resp.). In this paper we evaluate the opponent colors (OPP) space as a biologically inspired alternative for human detection. In particular, by feeding OPP space in the baseline framework of Dalal et al. for human detection (based on RGB, HOG and linear SVM), we will obtain better detection performance than by using RGB space. This is a relevant result since, up to the best of our knowledge, OPP space has not been previously used for human detection. This suggests that in the future it could be worth to compute co-occurrence matrices, self-similarity features, etc., also on top of OPP space, i.e., as we have done with HOG in this paper.
