Title Thermal Image Super-Resolution Challenge Results- PBVS 2022. Type Conference Article
Year 2022 Publication Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops, (CVPRW 2022), junio 19-24. Abbreviated Journal CONFERENCE
Volume 2022-June Issue Pages 349-357
Keywords
Abstract This paper presents results from the third Thermal Image

Super-Resolution (TISR) challenge organized in the Perception Beyond the Visible Spectrum (PBVS) 2022 workshop.

The challenge uses the same thermal image dataset as the

first two challenges, with 951 training images and 50 validation images at each resolution. A set of 20 images was

kept aside for testing. The evaluation tasks were to measure

the PSNR and SSIM between the SR image and the ground

truth (HR thermal noisy image downsampled by four), and

also to measure the PSNR and SSIM between the SR image

and the semi-registered HR image (acquired with another

camera). The results outperformed those from last year’s

challenge, improving both evaluation metrics. This year,

almost 100 teams participants registered for the challenge,

showing the community’s interest in this hot topic.

Title Human Pose Estimation through A Novel Multi-View Scheme Type Conference Article
Year 2022 Publication Proceedings of the International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications VISIGRAPP 2022 Abbreviated Journal
Volume 5 Issue Pages 855-862
Keywords Multi-View Scheme, Human Pose Estimation, Relative Camera Pose, Monocular Approach
Abstract This paper presents a multi-view scheme to tackle the challenging problem of the self-occlusion in human

pose estimation problem. The proposed approach first obtains the human body joints of a set of images,

which are captured from different views at the same time. Then, it enhances the obtained joints by using a

multi-view scheme. Basically, the joints from a given view are used to enhance poorly estimated joints from

another view, especially intended to tackle the self occlusions cases. A network architecture initially proposed

for the monocular case is adapted to be used in the proposed multi-view scheme. Experimental results and

comparisons with the state-of-the-art approaches on Human3.6m dataset are presented showing improvements

in the accuracy of body joints estimations.

Title Cycle generative adversarial network: towards a low-cost vegetation index estimation Type Conference Article
Year 2021 Publication IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP 2021) Abbreviated Journal
Volume 2021-September Issue Pages 2783-2787
Keywords CyclicGAN, NDVI, near infrared spectra, instance normalization.
Abstract This paper presents a novel unsupervised approach to estimate the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI).The NDVI is obtained as the ratio between information from the visible and near infrared spectral bands; in the current work, the NDVI is estimated just from an image of the visible spectrum through a Cyclic Generative Adversarial Network (CyclicGAN). This unsupervised architecture learns to estimate the NDVI index by means of an image translation between the red channel of a given RGB image and the NDVI unpaired index’s image. The translation is obtained by means of a ResNET architecture and a multiple loss function. Experimental results obtained with this unsupervised scheme show the validity of the implemented model. Additionally, comparisons with the state of the art approaches are provided showing improvements with the proposed approach.

Title SSD vs. YOLO for Detection of Outdoor Urban Advertising Panels under Multiple Variabilities. Type Journal Article
Year 2020 Publication Abbreviated Journal In Sensors
Volume Vol. 2020-August Issue 16 Pages pp. 1-23
Keywords object detection; urban outdoor panels; one-stage detectors; Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD); You Only Look Once (YOLO); detection metrics; object and scene imaging variabilities
Abstract This work compares Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) and You Only Look Once (YOLO)

deep neural networks for the outdoor advertisement panel detection problem by handling multiple

and combined variabilities in the scenes. Publicity panel detection in images o ers important

advantages both in the real world as well as in the virtual one. For example, applications like Google

Street View can be used for Internet publicity and when detecting these ads panels in images, it could

be possible to replace the publicity appearing inside the panels by another from a funding company.

In our experiments, both SSD and YOLO detectors have produced acceptable results under variable

sizes of panels, illumination conditions, viewing perspectives, partial occlusion of panels, complex

background and multiple panels in scenes. Due to the diculty of finding annotated images for the

considered problem, we created our own dataset for conducting the experiments. The major strength

of the SSD model was the almost elimination of False Positive (FP) cases, situation that is preferable

when the publicity contained inside the panel is analyzed after detecting them. On the other side,

YOLO produced better panel localization results detecting a higher number of True Positive (TP)

panels with a higher accuracy. Finally, a comparison of the two analyzed object detection models

with di erent types of semantic segmentation networks and using the same evaluation metrics is

also included.

Title Fast CNN Stereo Depth Estimation through Embedded GPU Devices Type Journal Article
Year 2020 Publication Sensors 2020 Abbreviated Journal
Volume Vol. 2020-June Issue 11 Pages pp. 1-13
Keywords stereo matching; deep learning; embedded GPU
Abstract Current CNN-based stereo depth estimation models can barely run under real-time

constraints on embedded graphic processing unit (GPU) devices. Moreover, state-of-the-art

evaluations usually do not consider model optimization techniques, being that it is unknown what is

the current potential on embedded GPU devices. In this work, we evaluate two state-of-the-art models

on three different embedded GPU devices, with and without optimization methods, presenting

performance results that illustrate the actual capabilities of embedded GPU devices for stereo depth

estimation. More importantly, based on our evaluation, we propose the use of a U-Net like architecture

for postprocessing the cost-volume, instead of a typical sequence of 3D convolutions, drastically

augmenting the runtime speed of current models. In our experiments, we achieve real-time inference

speed, in the range of 5–32 ms, for 1216  368 input stereo images on the Jetson TX2, Jetson Xavier,

and Jetson Nano embedded devices.
