  Title Color Correction for Onboard Multi-camera Systems using 3D Gaussian Mixture Models Type Conference Article
  Year 2012 Publication IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 299-303  
  Keywords  
  Abstract The current paper proposes a novel color correction approach for onboard multi-camera systems. It works by segmenting the given images into several regions. A probabilistic segmentation framework, using 3D Gaussian Mixture Models, is proposed. Regions are used to compute local color correction functions, which are then combined to obtain the final corrected image. An image data set of road scenarios is used to establish a performance comparison of the proposed method with other seven well known color correction algorithms. Results show that the proposed approach is the highest scoring color correction method. Also, the proposed single step 3D color space probabilistic segmentation reduces processing time over similar approaches.

  Title Pedestrian Candidates Generation using Monocular Cues Type Conference Article
  Year 2012 Publication IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 7-12  
  Keywords pedestrian detection  
  Abstract Common techniques for pedestrian candidates generation (e.g., sliding window approaches) are based on an exhaustive search over the image. This implies that the number of windows produced is huge, which translates into a significant time consumption in the classification stage. In this paper, we propose a method that significantly reduces the number of windows to be considered by a classifier. Our method is a monocular one that exploits geometric and depth information available on single images. Both representations of the world are fused together to generate pedestrian candidates based on an underlying model which is focused only on objects standing vertically on the ground plane and having certain height, according with their depths on the scene. We evaluate our algorithm on a challenging dataset and demonstrate its application for pedestrian detection, where a considerable reduction in the number of candidate windows is reached.

  Title Camera Egomotion Estimation in the ADAS Context Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 13th International IEEE Annual Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1415–1420  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Camera-based Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have concentrated many research efforts in the last decades. Proposals based on monocular cameras require the knowledge of the camera pose with respect to the environment, in order to reach an efficient and robust performance. A common assumption in such systems is considering the road as planar, and the camera pose with respect to it as approximately known. However, in real situations, the camera pose varies along time due to the vehicle movement, the road slope, and irregularities on the road surface. Thus, the changes in the camera position and orientation (i.e., the egomotion) are critical information that must be estimated at every frame to avoid poor performances. This work focuses on egomotion estimation from a monocular camera under the ADAS context. We review and compare egomotion methods with simulated and real ADAS-like sequences. Basing on the results of our experiments, we show which of the considered nonlinear and linear algorithms have the best performance in this domain.

  Title Vehicle geolocalization based on video synchronization Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 13th Annual International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1511–1516  
  Keywords video alignment  
  Abstract TC8.6
This paper proposes a novel method for estimating the geospatial localization of a vehicle. I uses as input a georeferenced video sequence recorded by a forward-facing camera attached to the windscreen. The core of the proposed method is an on-line video synchronization which finds out the corresponding frame in the georeferenced video sequence to the one recorded at each time by the camera on a second drive through the same track. Once found the corresponding frame in the georeferenced video sequence, we transfer its geospatial information of this frame. The key advantages of this method are: 1) the increase of the update rate and the geospatial accuracy with regard to a standard low-cost GPS and 2) the ability to localize a vehicle even when a GPS is not available or is not reliable enough, like in certain urban areas. Experimental results for an urban environments are presented, showing an average of relative accuracy of 1.5 meters.

  Title Vision-based road detection via on-line video registration Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication 13th Annual International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1135–1140  
  Keywords video alignment; road detection  
  Abstract TB6.2
Road segmentation is an essential functionality for supporting advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) such as road following and vehicle and pedestrian detection. Significant efforts have been made in order to solve this task using vision-based techniques. The major challenge is to deal with lighting variations and the presence of objects on the road surface. In this paper, we propose a new road detection method to infer the areas of the image depicting road surfaces without performing any image segmentation. The idea is to previously segment manually or semi-automatically the road region in a traffic-free reference video record on a first drive. And then to transfer these regions to the frames of a second video sequence acquired later in a second drive through the same road, in an on-line manner. This is possible because we are able to automatically align the two videos in time and space, that is, to synchronize them and warp each frame of the first video to its corresponding frame in the second one. The geometric transform can thus transfer the road region to the present frame on-line. In order to reduce the different lighting conditions which are present in outdoor scenarios, our approach incorporates a shadowless feature space which represents an image in an illuminant-invariant feature space. Furthermore, we propose a dynamic background subtraction algorithm which removes the regions containing vehicles in the observed frames which are within the transferred road region.

  Title End-to-end Driving via Conditional Imitation Learning Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 4693 - 4700  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Deep networks trained on demonstrations of human driving have learned to follow roads and avoid obstacles. However, driving policies trained via imitation learning cannot be controlled at test time. A vehicle trained end-to-end to imitate an expert cannot be guided to take a specific turn at an upcoming intersection. This limits the utility of such systems. We propose to condition imitation learning on high-level command input. At test time, the learned driving policy functions as a chauffeur that handles sensorimotor coordination but continues to respond to navigational commands. We evaluate different architectures for conditional imitation learning in vision-based driving. We conduct experiments in realistic three-dimensional simulations of urban driving and on a 1/5 scale robotic truck that is trained to drive in a residential area. Both systems drive based on visual input yet remain responsive to high-level navigational commands. The supplementary video can be viewed at this https URL

  Title VSLAM pose initialization via Lie groups and Lie algebras optimization Type Conference Article
  Year 2013 Publication Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 5740 - 5747  
  Keywords SLAM  
  Abstract We present a novel technique for estimating initial 3D poses in the context of localization and Visual SLAM problems. The presented approach can deal with noise, outliers and a large amount of input data and still performs in real time in a standard CPU. Our method produces solutions with an accuracy comparable to those produced by RANSAC but can be much faster when the percentage of outliers is high or for large amounts of input data. On the current work we propose to formulate the pose estimation as an optimization problem on Lie groups, considering their manifold structure as well as their associated Lie algebras. This allows us to perform a fast and simple optimization at the same time that conserve all the constraints imposed by the Lie group SE(3). Additionally, we present several key design concepts related with the cost function and its Jacobian; aspects that are critical for the good performance of the algorithm.

  Title Rotate your Networks: Better Weight Consolidation and Less Catastrophic Forgetting Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication 24th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 2262-2268  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In this paper we propose an approach to avoiding catastrophic forgetting in sequential task learning scenarios. Our technique is based on a network reparameterization that approximately diagonalizes the Fisher Information Matrix of the network parameters. This reparameterization takes the form of
a factorized rotation of parameter space which, when used in conjunction with Elastic Weight Consolidation (which assumes a diagonal Fisher Information Matrix), leads to significantly better performance on lifelong learning of sequential tasks. Experimental results on the MNIST, CIFAR-100, CUB-200 and
Stanford-40 datasets demonstrate that we significantly improve the results of standard elastic weight consolidation, and that we obtain competitive results when compared to the state-of-the-art in lifelong learning without forgetting.

  Title 2D-to-3D Facial Expression Transfer Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication 24th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 2008 - 2013  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Automatically changing the expression and physical features of a face from an input image is a topic that has been traditionally tackled in a 2D domain. In this paper, we bring this problem to 3D and propose a framework that given an
input RGB video of a human face under a neutral expression, initially computes his/her 3D shape and then performs a transfer to a new and potentially non-observed expression. For this purpose, we parameterize the rest shape –obtained from standard factorization approaches over the input video– using a triangular
mesh which is further clustered into larger macro-segments. The expression transfer problem is then posed as a direct mapping between this shape and a source shape, such as the blend shapes of an off-the-shelf 3D dataset of human facial expressions. The mapping is resolved to be geometrically consistent between 3D models by requiring points in specific regions to map on semantic
equivalent regions. We validate the approach on several synthetic and real examples of input faces that largely differ from the source shapes, yielding very realistic expression transfers even in cases with topology changes, such as a synthetic video sequence of a single-eyed cyclops.

  Title Cost-sensitive Structured SVM for Multi-category Domain Adaptation Type Conference Article
  Year 2014 Publication 22nd International Conference on Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 3886 - 3891  
  Keywords Domain Adaptation; Pedestrian Detection  
  Abstract Domain adaptation addresses the problem of accuracy drop that a classifier may suffer when the training data (source domain) and the testing data (target domain) are drawn from different distributions. In this work, we focus on domain adaptation for structured SVM (SSVM). We propose a cost-sensitive domain adaptation method for SSVM, namely COSS-SSVM. In particular, during the re-training of an adapted classifier based on target and source data, the idea that we explore consists in introducing a non-zero cost even for correctly classified source domain samples. Eventually, we aim to learn a more targetoriented classifier by not rewarding (zero loss) properly classified source-domain training samples. We assess the effectiveness of COSS-SSVM on multi-category object recognition.
