	Title	Interactive Document Retrieval and Classification.			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Multimodal Interaction in Image and Video Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	48	Issue		Pages	17-30
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this chapter we describe a system for document retrieval and classification following the interactive-predictive framework. In particular, the system addresses two different scenarios of document analysis: document classification based on visual appearance and logo detection. These two classical problems of document analysis are formulated following the interactive-predictive model, taking the user interaction into account to make easier the process of annotating and labelling the documents. A system implementing this model in a real scenario is presented and analyzed. This system also takes advantage of active learning techniques to speed up the task of labelling the documents.

	Title	Notation-invariant patch-based wall detector in architectural floor plans			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Graphics Recognition. New Trends and Challenges	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	7423	Issue		Pages	79--88
	Keywords
	Abstract	Architectural floor plans exhibit a large variability in notation. Therefore, segmenting and identifying the elements of any kind of plan becomes a challenging task for approaches based on grouping structural primitives obtained by vectorization. Recently, a patch-based segmentation method working at pixel level and relying on the construction of a visual vocabulary has been proposed in [1], showing its adaptability to different notations by automatically learning the visual appearance of the elements in each different notation. This paper presents an evolution of that previous work, after analyzing and testing several alternatives for each of the different steps of the method: Firstly, an automatic plan-size normalization process is done. Secondly we evaluate different features to obtain the description of every patch. Thirdly, we train an SVM classifier to obtain the category of every patch instead of constructing a visual vocabulary. These variations of the method have been tested for wall detection on two datasets of architectural floor plans with different notations. After studying in deep each of the steps in the process pipeline, we are able to find the best system configuration, which highly outperforms the results on wall segmentation obtained by the original paper.

	Title	Interactive Visual and Semantic Image Retrieval			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Multimodal Interaction in Image and Video Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	48	Issue		Pages	31-35
	Keywords
	Abstract	One direct consequence of recent advances in digital visual data generation and the direct availability of this information through the World-Wide Web, is a urgent demand for efficient image retrieval systems. The objective of image retrieval is to allow users to efficiently browse through this abundance of images. Due to the non-expert nature of the majority of the internet users, such systems should be user friendly, and therefore avoid complex user interfaces. In this chapter we investigate how high-level information provided by recently developed object recognition techniques can improve interactive image retrieval. Wel apply a bagof- word based image representation method to automatically classify images in a number of categories. These additional labels are then applied to improve the image retrieval system. Next to these high-level semantic labels, we also apply a low-level image description to describe the composition and color scheme of the scene. Both descriptions are incorporated in a user feedback image retrieval setting. The main objective is to show that automatic labeling of images with semantic labels can improve image retrieval results.

	Title	Towards Ontological Cognitive System			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Topics in Medical Image Processing and Computational Vision	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	8	Issue		Pages	87-99
	Keywords
	Abstract	The increasing ubiquitousness of digital information in our daily lives has positioned video as a favored information vehicle, and given rise to an astonishing generation of social media and surveillance footage. This raises a series of technological demands for automatic video understanding and management, which together with the compromising attentional limitations of human operators, have motivated the research community to guide its steps towards a better attainment of such capabilities. As a result, current trends on cognitive vision promise to recognize complex events and self-adapt to different environments, while managing and integrating several types of knowledge. Future directions suggest to reinforce the multi-modal fusion of information sources and the communication with end-users.

	Title	Multilevel Analysis of Attributed Graphs for Explicit Graph Embedding in Vector Spaces			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Graph Embedding for Pattern Analysis	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1-26
	Keywords
	Abstract	Ability to recognize patterns is among the most crucial capabilities of human beings for their survival, which enables them to employ their sophisticated neural and cognitive systems [1], for processing complex audio, visual, smell, touch, and taste signals. Man is the most complex and the best existing system of pattern recognition. Without any explicit thinking, we continuously compare, classify, and identify huge amount of signal data everyday [2], starting from the time we get up in the morning till the last second we fall asleep. This includes recognizing the face of a friend in a crowd, a spoken word embedded in noise, the proper key to lock the door, smell of coffee, the voice of a favorite singer, the recognition of alphabetic characters, and millions of more tasks that we perform on regular basis.

	Title	Optimal Medial Surface Generation for Anatomical Volume Representations			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2012	Publication	Abdominal Imaging. Computational and Clinical Applications	Abbreviated Journal	LNCS
	Volume	7601	Issue		Pages	265-273
	Keywords	Medial surface representation; volume reconstruction
	Abstract	Medial representations are a widely used technique in abdominal organ shape representation and parametrization. Those methods require good medial manifolds as a starting point. Any medial surface used to parametrize a volume should be simple enough to allow an easy manipulation and complete enough to allow an accurate reconstruction of the volume. Obtaining good quality medial surfaces is still a problem with current iterative thinning methods. This forces the usage of generic, pre-calculated medial templates that are adapted to the final shape at the cost of a drop in volume reconstruction. This paper describes an operator for generation of medial structures that generates clean and complete manifolds well suited for their further use in medial representations of abdominal organ volumes. While being simpler than thinning surfaces, experiments show its high performance in volume reconstruction and preservation of medial surface main branching topology.

	Title	Moving object detection from mobile platforms using stereo data registration			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2012	Publication	Computational Intelligence paradigms in advanced pattern classification	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	386	Issue		Pages	25-37
	Keywords	pedestrian detection
	Abstract	This chapter describes a robust approach for detecting moving objects from on-board stereo vision systems. It relies on a feature point quaternion-based registration, which avoids common problems that appear when computationally expensive iterative-based algorithms are used on dynamic environments. The proposed approach consists of three main stages. Initially, feature points are extracted and tracked through consecutive 2D frames. Then, a RANSAC based approach is used for registering two point sets, with known correspondences in the 3D space. The computed 3D rigid displacement is used to map two consecutive 3D point clouds into the same coordinate system by means of the quaternion method. Finally, moving objects correspond to those areas with large 3D registration errors. Experimental results show the viability of the proposed approach to detect moving objects like vehicles or pedestrians in different urban scenarios.

	Title	Trajectory-Based Abnormality Categorization for Learning Route Patterns in Surveillance			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2012	Publication	Detection and Identification of Rare Audiovisual Cues, Studies in Computational Intelligence	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	384	Issue	3	Pages	87-95
	Keywords
	Abstract	The recognition of abnormal behaviors in video sequences has raised as a hot topic in video understanding research. Particularly, an important challenge resides on automatically detecting abnormality. However, there is no convention about the types of anomalies that training data should derive. In surveillance, these are typically detected when new observations differ substantially from observed, previously learned behavior models, which represent normality. This paper focuses on properly defining anomalies within trajectory analysis: we propose a hierarchical representation conformed by Soft, Intermediate, and Hard Anomaly, which are identified from the extent and nature of deviation from learned models. Towards this end, a novel Gaussian Mixture Model representation of learned route patterns creates a probabilistic map of the image plane, which is applied to detect and classify anomalies in real-time. Our method overcomes limitations of similar existing approaches, and performs correctly even when the tracking is affected by different sources of noise. The reliability of our approach is demonstrated experimentally.

	Title	Uniform Sampling of Rotations for Discrete and Continuous Learning of 2D Shape Models			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2012	Publication	Vision Robotics: Technologies for Machine Learning and Vision Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue	2	Pages	23-42
	Keywords
	Abstract	Different methodologies of uniform sampling over the rotation group, SO(3), for building unbiased 2D shape models from 3D objects are introduced and reviewed in this chapter. State-of-the-art non uniform sampling approaches are discussed, and uniform sampling methods using Euler angles and quaternions are introduced. Moreover, since presented work is oriented to model building applications, it is not limited to general discrete methods to obtain uniform 3D rotations, but also from a continuous point of view in the case of Procrustes Analysis.

	Title	Coloresia: An Interactive Colour Perception Device for the Visually Impaired			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Multimodal Interaction in Image and Video Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	48	Issue		Pages	47-66
	Keywords
	Abstract	A significative percentage of the human population suffer from impairments in their capacity to distinguish or even see colours. For them, everyday tasks like navigating through a train or metro network map becomes demanding. We present a novel technique for extracting colour information from everyday natural stimuli and presenting it to visually impaired users as pleasant, non-invasive sound. This technique was implemented inside a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) portable device. In this implementation, colour information is extracted from the input image and categorised according to how human observers segment the colour space. This information is subsequently converted into sound and sent to the user via speakers or headphones. In the original implementation, it is possible for the user to send its feedback to reconfigure the system, however several features such as these were not implemented because the current technology is limited.We are confident that the full implementation will be possible in the near future as PDA technology improves.

	Title	An Application for Efﬁcient Error-Free Labeling of Medical Images			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2013	Publication	Multimodal Interaction in Image and Video Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	48	Issue		Pages	1-16
	Keywords
	Abstract	In this chapter we describe an application for efficient error-free labeling of medical images. In this scenario, the compilation of a complete training set for building a realistic model of a given class of samples is not an easy task, making the process tedious and time consuming. For this reason, there is a need for interactive labeling applications that minimize the effort of the user while providing error-free labeling. We propose a new algorithm that is based on data similarity in feature space. This method actively explores data in order to find the best label-aligned clustering and exploits it to reduce the labeler effort, that is measured by the number of “clicks. Moreover, error-free labeling is guaranteed by the fact that all data and their labels proposals are visually revised by en expert.

	Title	Moving Cast Shadows Detection Methods for Video Surveillance Applications			Type	Book Chapter
	Year	2014	Publication	Augmented Vision and Reality	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	6	Issue		Pages	23-47
	Keywords
	Abstract	Moving cast shadows are a major concern in today’s performance from broad range of many vision-based surveillance applications because they highly difficult the object classification task. Several shadow detection methods have been reported in the literature during the last years. They are mainly divided into two domains. One usually works with static images, whereas the second one uses image sequences, namely video content. In spite of the fact that both cases can be analogously analyzed, there is a difference in the application field. The first case, shadow detection methods can be exploited in order to obtain additional geometric and semantic cues about shape and position of its casting object (‘shape from shadows’) as well as the localization of the light source. While in the second one, the main purpose is usually change detection, scene matching or surveillance (usually in a background subtraction context). Shadows can in fact modify in a negative way the shape and color of the target object and therefore affect the performance of scene analysis and interpretation in many applications. This chapter wills mainly reviews shadow detection methods as well as their taxonomies related with the second case, thus aiming at those shadows which are associated with moving objects (moving shadows).
