  Title Adaptive Harris Corners Detector Evaluated with Cross-Spectral Images Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication International Conference on Information Technology & Systems (ICITS 2018). ICITS 2018. Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 721 Issue Pages  
  Keywords (up)  
  Abstract This paper proposes a novel approach to use cross-spectral

images to achieve a better performance with the proposed Adaptive Harris

corner detector comparing its obtained results with those achieved

with images of the visible spectra. The images of urban, field, old-building

and country category were used for the experiments, given the variety of

the textures present in these images, with which the complexity of the

proposal is much more challenging for its verification. It is a new scope,

which means improving the detection of characteristic points using crossspectral

images (NIR, G, B) and applying pruning techniques, the combination

of channels for this fusion is the one that generates the largest

variance based on the intensity of the merged pixels, therefore, it is that

which maximizes the entropy in the resulting Cross-spectral images.

Harris is one of the most widely used corner detection algorithm, so

any improvement in its efficiency is an important contribution in the

field of computer vision. The experiments conclude that the inclusion of

a (NIR) channel in the image as a result of the combination of the spectra,

greatly improves the corner detection due to better entropy of the

resulting image after the fusion, Therefore the fusion process applied to

the images improves the results obtained in subsequent processes such as

identification of objects or patterns, classification and/or segmentation.

  Title Qualitative Model of Control in the Pressure Stabilization of PEM Fuel Cell Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication 7th International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications, ICRERA 2018. Paris, Francia. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 1221-1226  
  Keywords (up)  
  Abstract This work describes an approximate reasoning

technique to deal with the non-linearity that occurs in the

stabilization of the pressure of anodic and cathodic gases of a

proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEM). The implementation

of a supervisory element in the stabilization of the pressure of the

PEM cell is described. The fuzzy supervisor is a reference

control, it varies the value of the reference given to the classic

low-level controller, Proportional – Integral – Derivative (PID),

according to the speed of change of the measured pressure and

the change in the error of the pressure. The objective of the fuzzy

supervisor is to achieve a rapid response over time of the variable

pressure, avoiding unwanted overruns with respect to the

reference value. A comparative analysis is detailed with the

classic PID control to evaluate the operation of the “fuzzy

supervisor”, with different flow values and different sizes of

active area of the PEM cell (electric power generated).

  Title Cross-spectral image dehaze through a dense stacked conditional GAN based approach. Type Conference Article
  Year 2018 Publication 14th IEEE International Conference on Signal Image Technology & Internet based Systems (SITIS 2018) Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 358-364  
  Keywords (up)  
  Abstract This paper proposes a novel approach to remove haze from RGB images using a near infrared images based on a dense stacked conditional Generative Adversarial Network (CGAN). The architecture of the deep network implemented receives, besides the images with haze, its corresponding image in the near infrared spectrum, which serve to accelerate the learning process of the details of the characteristics of the images. The model uses a triplet layer that allows the independence learning of each channel of the visible spectrum image to remove the haze on each color channel separately. A multiple loss function scheme is proposed, which ensures balanced learning between the colors and the structure of the images. Experimental results have shown that the proposed method effectively removes the haze from the images. Additionally, the proposed approach is compared with a state of the art approach showing better results.

  Title Towards Fault Tolerant Perception for autonomous vehicles: Local Fusion. Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication IEEE 7th International Conference on Cybernetics and Intelligent Systems (CIS) and IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM), Siem Reap, 2015. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 253-258  
  Keywords (up)  
  Abstract Many robust sensor fusion strategies have been developed in order to reliably detect the surrounding environments of an autonomous vehicle. However, in real situations there is always the possibility that sensors or other components may fail. Thus, internal modules and sensors need to be monitored to ensure their proper function. This paper introduces a general view of a perception architecture designed to detect and classify obstacles in an autonomous vehicle's environment using a fault tolerant framework, whereas elaborates the object detection and local fusion modules proposed in order to achieve the modularity and real-time process required by the system.

  Title An Exploratory Study of Group-Robot Social Interactions in a Cultural Center Type Conference Article

  Abstract This article describes an exploratory study of social human-robot interaction with the experimental robotic platform MASHI. The experiences were carried out in La B`obila Cultural Center in Barcelona, Spain to study the visitor preferences, characterize the groups and their spatial relationships in this open and unstructured environment. Results showed that visitors prefers to play and dialogue with the robot. Children have the highest interest in interacting with the robot, more than young and adult visitors. Most of the groups consisted of more than 3 visitors, however the size of the groups during interactions was continuously changed. In static situations, the observed spatial relationships denotes a social cohesion in the human-robot interactions.

  Title Sensor Fault Detection and Diagnosis for autonomous vehicles Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication 2nd International Conference on Mechatronics, Automation and Manufacturing (ICMAM 2015), International Conference on, Singapur, 2015 Abbreviated Journal

  Abstract In recent years testing autonomous vehicles on public roads has become a reality. However, before having autonomous vehicles completely accepted on the roads, they have to demonstrate safe operation and reliable interaction with other traffic participants. Furthermore, in real situations and long term operation, there is always the possibility that diverse components may fail. This paper deals with possible sensor faults by defining a federated sensor data fusion architecture. The proposed architecture is designed to detect obstacles in an autonomous vehicle’s environment while detecting a faulty sensor using SVM models for fault detection and diagnosis. Experimental results using sensor information from the KITTI dataset confirm the feasibility of the proposed architecture to detect soft and hard faults from a particular sensor.

  Title Learning crossspectral similarity measures with deep convolutional neural networks Type Conference Article
  Year 2016 Publication IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) Workshops Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 267-275  
  Keywords (up)  
  Abstract The simultaneous use of images from different spectra can be helpful to improve the performance of many com- puter vision tasks. The core idea behind the usage of cross- spectral approaches is to take advantage of the strengths of each spectral band providing a richer representation of a scene, which cannot be obtained with just images from one spectral band. In this work we tackle the cross-spectral image similarity problem by using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). We explore three different CNN archi- tectures to compare the similarity of cross-spectral image patches. Specifically, we train each network with images from the visible and the near-infrared spectrum, and then test the result with two public cross-spectral datasets. Ex- perimental results show that CNN approaches outperform the current state-of-art on both cross-spectral datasets. Ad- ditionally, our experiments show that some CNN architec- tures are capable of generalizing between different cross- spectral domains.
