| 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. |

| Abstract | Multi-spectral RGB-NIR sensors have become ubiquitous in recent years. These sensors allow the visible and near-infrared spectral bands of a given scene to be captured at the same time. With such cameras, the acquired imagery has a compromised RGB color representation due to near-infrared bands (700–1100 nm) cross-talking with the visible bands (400–700 nm). This paper proposes two deep learning-based architectures to recover the full RGB color images, thus removing the NIR information from the visible bands. The proposed approaches directly restore the high-resolution RGB image by means of convolutional neural networks. They are evaluated with several outdoor images; both architectures reach a similar performance when evaluated in different scenarios and using different similarity metrics. Both of them improve the state of the art approaches. | ||||

| 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 | |

| 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. | ||||

| Abstract | This paper presents a comparative evaluation of classical feature point descriptors when they are used in the long-wave infrared spectral band. Robustness to changes in rotation, scaling, blur, and additive noise are evaluated using a state of the art framework.

| Title | Cross-spectral Stereo Correspondence using Dense Flow Fields | Type | Conference Article | ||

| Abstract | This manuscript addresses the cross-spectral stereo correspondence problem. It proposes the usage of a dense flow field based representation instead of the original cross-spectral images, which have a low correlation. In this way, working in the flow field space, classical cost functions can be used as similarity measures. Preliminary experimental results on urban environments have been obtained showing the validity of the proposed approach. | ||||

| Title | A predictive model for human activity recognition by observing actions and context | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | ACIVS 2015 (Advanced Concepts for Intelligent Vision Systems), International Conference on, Catania, Italy, 2015 | Abbreviated Journal | |

| Abstract | This paper presents a novel model to estimate human activities – a human activity is defined by a set of human actions. The proposed approach is based on the usage of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) and Bayesian inference through the continuous monitoring of human actions and its surrounding environment. In the current work human activities are inferred considering not only visual analysis but also additional resources; external sources of information, such as context information, are incorporated to contribute to the activity estimation. The novelty of the proposed approach lies in the way the information is encoded, so that it can be later associated according to a predefined semantic structure. Hence, a pattern representing a given activity can be defined by a set of actions, plus contextual information or other kind of information that could be relevant to describe the activity. Experimental results with real data are provided showing the validity of the proposed approach. | ||||

| Title | A visible-Thermal Fusion based Monocular Visual Odometry | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2015 | Publication | Iberian Robotics Conference (ROBOT 2015), International Conference on, Lisbon, Portugal, 2015 | Abbreviated Journal | |

| Keywords | Monocular Visual Odometry; LWIR-RGB cross-spectral Imaging; Image Fusion | ||||
| Abstract | The manuscript evaluates the performance of a monocular visual odometry approach when images from different spectra are considered, both independently and fused. The objective behind this evaluation is to analyze if classical approaches can be improved when the given images, which are from different spectra, are fused and represented in new domains. The images in these new domains should have some of the following properties: i) more robust to noisy data; ii) less sensitive to changes (e.g., lighting); iii) more rich in descriptive information, among other. In particular in the current work two different image fusion strategies are considered. Firstly, images from the visible and thermal spectrum are fused using a Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) approach. Secondly, a monochrome threshold strategy is considered. The obtained representations are evaluated under a visual odometry framework, highlighting their advantages and disadvantages, using different urban and semi-urban scenarios. Comparisons with both monocular-visible spectrum and monocular-infrared spectrum, are also provided showing the validity of the proposed approach. | ||||

| Title | Scene representations for autonomous driving: an approach based on polygonal primitives | Type | Conference Article | ||

| Abstract | In this paper, we present a novel methodology to compute a 3D scene representation. The algorithm uses macro scale polygonal primitives to model the scene. This means that the representation of the scene is given as a list of large scale polygons that describe the geometric structure of the environment. Results show that the approach is capable of producing accurate descriptions of the scene. In addition, the algorithm is very efficient when compared to other techniques. | ||||
