	Title	Structure-Preserving Smoothing of Biomedical Images			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2009	Publication	13th International Conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	5702	Issue		Pages	427-434
	Keywords	non-linear smoothing; differential geometry; anatomical structures segmentation; cardiac magnetic resonance; computerized tomography.
	Abstract	Smoothing of biomedical images should preserve gray-level transitions between adjacent tissues, while restoring contours consistent with anatomical structures. Anisotropic diffusion operators are based on image appearance discontinuities (either local or contextual) and might fail at weak inter-tissue transitions. Meanwhile, the output of block-wise and morphological operations is prone to present a block structure due to the shape and size of the considered pixel neighborhood. In this contribution, we use differential geometry concepts to define a diffusion operator that restricts to image consistent level-sets. In this manner, the final state is a non-uniform intensity image presenting homogeneous inter-tissue transitions along anatomical structures, while smoothing intra-structure texture. Experiments on different types of medical images (magnetic resonance, computerized tomography) illustrate its benefit on a further process (such as segmentation) of images.

	Title	Correction of Misalignment Artifacts Among 2-D Cardiac MR Images in 3-D Space			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2006	Publication	1st International Wokshop on Computer Vision for Intravascular and Intracardiac Imaging (CVII’06)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	3217	Issue		Pages	114-121
	Keywords
	Abstract	Cardiac Magnetic Resonance images offer the opportunity to study the heart in detail. One of the main issues in its modelling is to create an accurate 3-D reconstruction of the left ventricle from 2-D views. A first step to achieve this goal is the correct registration among the different image planes due to patient movements. In this article, we present an accurate method to correct displacement artifacts using the Normalized Mutual Information. Here, the image views are treated as planes in order to diminish the approximation error caused by the association of a certain thickness, and moved simultaneously to avoid any kind of bias in the alignment process. This method has been validated using real and syntectic plane displacements, yielding promising results.

	Title	Factors Affecting Optical Flow Performance in Tagging Magnetic Resonance Imaging			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	17th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8896	Issue		Pages	231-238
	Keywords	Optical flow; Performance Evaluation; Synthetic Database; ANOVA; Tagging Magnetic Resonance Imaging
	Abstract	Changes in cardiac deformation patterns are correlated with cardiac pathologies. Deformation can be extracted from tagging Magnetic Resonance Imaging (tMRI) using Optical Flow (OF) techniques. For applications of OF in a clinical setting it is important to assess to what extent the performance of a particular OF method is stable across dierent clinical acquisition artifacts. This paper presents a statistical validation framework, based on ANOVA, to assess the motion and appearance factors that have the largest in uence on OF accuracy drop. In order to validate this framework, we created a database of simulated tMRI data including the most common artifacts of MRI and test three dierent OF methods, including HARP.

	Title	Discarding Non Informative Regions for Efficient Colonoscopy Image Analysis			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	1st MICCAI Workshop on Computer-Assisted and Robotic Endoscopy	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8899	Issue		Pages	1-10
	Keywords	Image Segmentation; Polyps, Colonoscopy; Valley Information; Energy Maps
	Abstract	In this paper we present a novel polyp region segmentation method for colonoscopy videos. Our method uses valley information associated to polyp boundaries in order to provide an initial segmentation. This first segmentation is refined to eliminate boundary discontinuities caused by image artifacts or other elements of the scene. Experimental results over a publicly annotated database show that our method outperforms both general and specific segmentation methods by providing more accurate regions rich in polyp content. We also prove how image preprocessing is needed to improve final polyp region segmentation.

	Title	Exploring the impact of inter-query variability on the performance of retrieval systems			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	11th International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8814	Issue		Pages	413–420
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper introduces a framework for evaluating the performance of information retrieval systems. Current evaluation metrics provide an average score that does not consider performance variability across the query set. In this manner, conclusions lack of any statistical significance, yielding poor inference to cases outside the query set and possibly unfair comparisons. We propose to apply statistical methods in order to obtain a more informative measure for problems in which different query classes can be identified. In this context, we assess the performance variability on two levels: overall variability across the whole query set and specific query class-related variability. To this end, we estimate confidence bands for precision-recall curves, and we apply ANOVA in order to assess the significance of the performance across different query classes.

	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	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	An inference model for analyzing termination conditions of Evolutionary Algorithms			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2011	Publication	14th Congrès Català en Intel·ligencia Artificial	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	216-225
	Keywords	Evolutionary Computation Convergence, Termination Conditions, Statistical Inference
	Abstract	In real-world problems, it is mandatory to design a termination condition for Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) ensuring stabilization close to the unknown optimum. Distribution-based quantities are good candidates as far as suitable parameters are used. A main limitation for application to real-world problems is that such parameters strongly depend on the topology of the objective function, as well as, the EA paradigm used. We claim that the termination problem would be fully solved if we had a model measuring to what extent a distribution-based quantity asymptotically behaves like the solution accuracy. We present a regression-prediction model that relates any two given quantities and reports if they can be statistically swapped as termination conditions. Our framework is applied to two issues. First, exploring if the parameters involved in the computation of distribution-based quantities influence their asymptotic behavior. Second, to what extent existing distribution-based quantities can be asymptotically exchanged for the accuracy of the EA solution.

	Title	Detecting loss of diversity for an efficient termination of EAs			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2013	Publication	15th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	561 - 566
	Keywords	EA termination; EA population diversity; EA steady state
	Abstract	Termination of Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) at its steady state so that useless iterations are not performed is a main point for its efficient application to black-box problems. Many EA algorithms evolve while there is still diversity in their population and, thus, they could be terminated by analyzing the behavior some measures of EA population diversity. This paper presents a numeric approximation to steady states that can be used to detect the moment EA population has lost its diversity for EA termination. Our condition has been applied to 3 EA paradigms based on diversity and a selection of functions covering the properties most relevant for EA convergence. Experiments show that our condition works regardless of the search space dimension and function landscape.

	Title	A medial map capturing the essential geometry of organs			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2012	Publication	ISBI Workshop on Open Source Medical Image Analysis software	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1691 - 1694
	Keywords	Medial Surface Representation, Volume Reconstruction,Geometry , Image reconstruction , Liver , Manifolds , Shape , Surface morphology , Surface reconstruction
	Abstract	Medial representations are powerful tools for describing and parameterizing the volumetric shape of anatomical structures. Accurate computation of one pixel wide medial surfaces is mandatory. Those surfaces must represent faithfully the geometry of the volume. Although morphological methods produce excellent results in 2D, their complexity and quality drops across dimensions, due to a more complex description of pixel neighborhoods. This paper introduces a continuous operator for accurate and efficient computation of medial structures of arbitrary dimension. Our experiments show its higher performance for medical imaging applications in terms of simplicity of medial structures and capability for reconstructing the anatomical volume

	Title	MIOCARDIA: Integrating cardiac function and muscular architecture for a better diagnosis			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2011	Publication	14th International Symposium on Applied Sciences in Biomedical and Communication Technologies	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords
	Abstract	Deep understanding of myocardial structure of the heart would unravel crucial knowledge for clinical and medical procedures. The MIOCARDIA project is a multidisciplinary project in cooperation with l'Hospital de la Santa Creu i de Sant Pau, Clinica la Creu Blanca and Barcelona Supercomputing Center. The ultimate goal of this project is defining a computational model of the myocardium. The model takes into account the deep interrelation between the anatomy and the mechanics of the heart. The paper explains the workflow of the MIOCARDIA project. It also introduces a multiresolution reconstruction technique based on DT-MRI streamlining for simplified global myocardial model generation. Our reconstructions can restore the most complex myocardial structures and provides evidences of a global helical organization.
