Abstract: This paper presents details of a general purpose micro-taskon-demand platform based on the crowdsourcing philosophy. This platformwas specifically developed for mobile devices in order to exploit the strengths of such devices; namely: i) massivity, ii) ubiquityand iii) embedded sensors.The combined use of mobile platforms and the crowdsourcing model allows to tackle from the simplest to the most complex tasks.Users experience is the highlighted feature of this platform (this fact is extended to both task-proposer and task- solver).Proper tools according with a specific task are provided to a task-solver in order to perform his/her job in a simpler, faster and appealing way.Moreover, a task can be easily submitted by just selecting predefined templates, which cover a wide range of possible applications.Examples of its usage in computer vision and computer games are provided illustrating the potentiality of the platform.

Análisis Comparativo de la Implementación de una PBX de Código Abierto instalada en un Servidor Tradicional y en un Enrutador Inalámbrico en términos de Calidad de Servicio en Redes Inalámbricas Amalladas. Revista Tecnologica ESPOL RTE, Vol. 24, pp. 1–6.
Abstract: El presente trabajo compara dos Implementaciones de Centrales Telefónicas VoIP de Código Abierto implementados sobre una Red Inalámbrica Amallada. El primero comprende la instalación de la PBX en un servidor tradicional y el segundo la instalación de una PBX en un enrutador inalámbrico. Nuestro objetivo es
determinar cuál de estos dos sistemas es superior en cuanto a calidad de servicio se refiere. Para determinar la mejor solución, realizamos un estudio técnico de los paquetes capturados durante diferentes pruebas, considerando parámetros como el ancho de banda, retardo y jitter. Nuestros métodos de análisis pueden ser utilizados para futuros trabajos con una mayor complejidad y número de enrutadores inalámbrico, así como establecer el grado de afectación y el comportamiento de las dos PBX cuando haya congestión en la red.

Abstract: This paper describes a method for on-line movement identification, oriented to patient’s movement evaluation during physiotherapy. An analysis based on Mahalanobis distance between temporal windows is performed to identify the “idle/motion” state, which defines the beginning and end of the patient’s movement, for posterior patterns extraction based on Relative Wavelet Energy from sequences of invariant moments.

A comprehensive review. In International Conference on Advances in Emerging Trends and Technologies (ICAETT 2019); Quito, Ecuador (pp. 248–259).
Abstract: Computer Vision has its own Turing test: Can a machine describe the contents of an image or a video in the way a human being would do? In this paper, the progress of Deep Learning for image recognition is analyzed in order to know the answer to this question. In recent years, Deep Learning has increased considerably the precision rate of many tasks related to computer vision. Many datasets of labeled images are now available online, which leads to pre-trained models for many computer vision applications. In this work, we gather information of the latest techniques to perform image understanding and description. As a conclusion we obtained that the combination of Natural Language Processing (using Recurrent Neural Networks and Long Short-Term Memory) plus Image Understanding (using Convolutional Neural Networks) could bring new types of powerful and useful applications in which the computer will be able to answer questions about the content of images and videos. In order to build datasets of labeled images, we need a lot of work and most of the datasets are built using crowd work. These new applications have the potential to increase the human machine interaction to new levels of usability and user’s satisfaction.

Abstract: In this work, we explore the use of images from different spectral bands to classify defects in melamine faced panels, which could appear through the production process. Through experimental evaluation, we evaluate the use of images from the visible (VS), near-infrared (NIR), and long wavelength infrared (LWIR), to classify the defects using a feature descriptor learning approach together with a support vector machine classifier. Two descriptors were evaluated, Extended Local Binary Patterns (E-LBP) and SURF using a Bag of Words (BoW) representation. The evaluation was carried on with an image set obtained during this work, which contained five different defect categories that currently occurs in the industry. Results show that using images from beyond
the visual spectrum helps to improve classification performance in contrast with a single visible spectrum solution.
