	Title	A Fault Tolerant Perception system for autonomous vehicles			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2016	Publication	35th Chinese Control Conference (CCC2016), International Conference on, Chengdu	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1-6
	Keywords	Fault Tolerant Perception, Sensor Data Fusion, Fault Tolerance, Autonomous Vehicles, Federated Architecture
	Abstract	Driverless vehicles are currently being tested on public roads in order to examine their ability to perform in a safe and reliable way in real world situations. However, the long-term reliable operation of a vehicle’s diverse sensors and the effects of potential sensor faults in the vehicle system have not been tested yet. This paper is proposing a sensor fusion architecture that minimizes the influence of a sensor fault. Experimental results are presented simulating faults by introducing displacements in the sensor information from the KITTI dataset.

	Title	RWE patterns extraction for on-line human action recognition through window-based analysis of invariant moments			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2012	Publication	5th Workshop in applied Robotics and Automation (RoboControl)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Human action recognition, Relative Wavelet Energy, Window-based temporal analysis.
	Abstract	This paper presents a method for on-line human action recognition on video sequences. An analysis based on Mahalanobis distance is performed to identify the “idle” state, which defines the beginning and end of the person movement, for posterior patterns extraction based on Relative Wavelet Energy from sequences of invariant moments.

	Title	Wavelet-Based Visible and Infrared Image Fusion: A Comparative Study			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2016	Publication	Sensors Journal	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	Vol. 16	Issue		Pages	pp. 1-15
	Keywords	image fusion; fusion evaluation metrics; visible and infrared imaging; discrete wavelet transform
	Abstract	This paper evaluates different wavelet-based cross-spectral image fusion strategies adopted to merge visible and infrared images. The objective is to find the best setup independently of the evaluation metric used to measure the performance. Quantitative performance results are obtained with state of the art approaches together with adaptations proposed in the current work. The options evaluated in the current work result from the combination of different setups in the wavelet image decomposition stage together with different fusion strategies for the final merging stage that generates the resulting representation. Most of the approaches evaluate results according to the application for which they are intended for. Sometimes a human observer is selected to judge the quality of the obtained results. In the current work, quantitative values are considered in order to find correlations between setups and performance of obtained results; these correlations can be used to define a criteria for selecting the best fusion strategy for a given pair of cross-spectral images. The whole procedure is evaluated with a large set of correctly registered visible and infrared image pairs, including both Near InfraRed (NIR) and LongWave InfraRed (LWIR).

	Title	Monocular visual odometry: a cross-spectral image fusion based approach			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2016	Publication	Robotics and Autonomous Systems Journal	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	Vol. 86	Issue		Pages	pp. 26-36
	Keywords	Monocular visual odometry LWIR-RGB cross-spectral imaging Image fusion
	Abstract	This manuscript evaluates the usage of fused cross-spectral images in a monocular visual odometry approach. Fused images are obtained through a Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) scheme, where the best setup is em- pirically obtained by means of a mutual information based evaluation met- ric. The objective is to have a exible scheme where fusion parameters are adapted according to the characteristics of the given images. Visual odom- etry is computed from the fused monocular images using an off the shelf approach. Experimental results using data sets obtained with two different platforms are presented. Additionally, comparison with a previous approach as well as with monocular-visible/infrared spectra are also provided showing the advantages of the proposed scheme.

	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
	Volume	417	Issue		Pages	517-528
	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	Human Pose Estimation through A Novel Multi-View Scheme			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2022	Publication	17th International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications (VISAPP 2022), febrero 6-8	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		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	Transfer Learning from Synthetic Data in the Camera Pose Estimation Problem			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2020	Publication	The 15th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications (VISIGRAPP 2020); Valletta, Malta; 27-29 Febrero 2020	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	4	Issue		Pages	498-505
	Keywords	Relative Camera Pose Estimation, Siamese Architecture, Synthetic Data, Deep Learning, Multi-View Environments, Extrinsic Camera Parameters.
	Abstract	This paper presents a novel Siamese network architecture, as a variant of Resnet-50, to estimate the relative camera pose on multi-view environments. In order to improve the performance of the proposed model a transfer learning strategy, based on synthetic images obtained from a virtual-world, is considered. The transfer learning consist of first training the network using pairs of images from the virtual-world scenario considering different conditions (i.e., weather, illumination, objects, buildings, etc.); then, the learned weight of the network are transferred to the real case, where images from real-world scenarios are considered. Experimental results and comparisons with the state of the art show both, improvements on the relative pose estimation accuracy using the proposed model, as well as further improvements when the transfer learning strategy (synthetic-world data – transfer learning – real-world data) is considered to tackle the limitation on the training due to the reduced number of pairs of real-images on most of the public data sets.
