  Title Statistical Representations of a Dashboard to Monitor Educational Videogames in Natural Language Type Conference Article
  Year 2020 Publication ETLTC – ACM Chapter: International Conference on Educational Technology, Language and Technical Communication; Fukushima, Japan, 27-31 Enero 2020 Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 77 Issue Pages  
  Keywords (up)  
  Abstract This paper explains how Natural Language (NL) processing by computers, through smart

programs as a way of Machine Learning (ML), can represent large sets of quantitative data as written

statements. The study recognized the need to improve the implemented web platform using a

dashboard in which we collected a set of extensive data to measure assessment factors of using

children´s educational games. In this case, applying NL is a strategy to give assessments, build, and

display more precise written statements to enhance the understanding of children´s gaming behavior.

We propose the development of a new tool to assess the use of written explanations rather than a

statistical representation of feedback information for the comprehension of parents and teachers with

a lack of primary level knowledge in statistics. Applying fuzzy logic theory, we present verbatim

explanations of children´s behavior playing educational videogames as NL interpretation instead of

statistical representations. An educational series of digital game applications for mobile devices,

identified as MIDI (Spanish acronym of “Interactive Didactic Multimedia for Children”) linked to a

dashboard in the cloud, is evaluated using the dashboard metrics. MIDI games tested in local primary

schools helps to evaluate the results of using the proposed tool. The guiding results allow analyzing

the degrees of playability and usability factors obtained from the data produced when children play a

MIDI game. The results obtained are presented in a comprehensive guiding evaluation report

applying NL for parents and teachers. These guiding evaluations are useful to enhance children's

learning understanding related to the school curricula applied to ludic digital games.

  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 (up)  
  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.

  Volume Vol. 14 Issue Pages pp. 3690-3701  
  Keywords (up) cross-spectral imaging; feature point descriptors  
  Abstract This manuscript evaluates the behavior of classical feature point descriptors when they are used in images from long-wave infrared spectral band and compare them with the results obtained in the visible spectrum. Robustness to changes in rotation, scaling, blur, and additive noise are analyzed using a state of the art framework. Experimental results using a cross-spectral outdoor image data set are presented and conclusions from these experiments are given.

  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 (up) 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 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  
  Volume Issue Pages 323 - 333  
  Keywords (up) Edge width, Image blu,r Defocus map, Edge model  
  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.
