	Title	Cross-spectral Stereo Correspondence using Dense Flow Fields			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2014	Publication	Computer Vision Theory and Applications (VISAPP), 2014 International Conference on, Lisbon, Portugal, 2014	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	3	Issue		Pages	613 - 617
	Keywords	Cross-spectral Stereo Correspondence, Dense Optical Flow, Infrared and Visible Spectrum
	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	LGHD: A feature descriptor for matching across non-linear intensity variations			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2015	Publication	IEEE International Conference on, Quebec City, QC, 2015	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	178 - 181
	Keywords	Feature descriptor, multi-modal, multispectral, NIR, LWIR
	Abstract	This paper presents a new feature descriptor suitable to the task of matching features points between images with nonlinear intensity variations. This includes image pairs with significant illuminations changes, multi-modal image pairs and multi-spectral image pairs. The proposed method describes the neighbourhood of feature points combining frequency and spatial information using multi-scale and multi-oriented Log- Gabor filters. Experimental results show the validity of the proposed approach and also the improvements with respect to the state of the art.

	Title	Concurrent Learning of Visual Codebooks and Object Categories in Open- ended Domains			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2015	Publication	Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2015 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on, Hamburg, Germany, 2015	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	2488 - 2495
	Keywords	Birds, Training, Legged locomotion, Visualization, Histograms, Object recognition, Gaussian mixture model
	Abstract	In open-ended domains, robots must continuously learn new object categories. When the training sets are created offline, it is not possible to ensure their representativeness with respect to the object categories and features the system will find when operating online. In the Bag of Words model, visual codebooks are usually constructed from training sets created offline. This might lead to non-discriminative visual words and, as a consequence, to poor recognition performance. This paper proposes a visual object recognition system which concurrently learns in an incremental and online fashion both the visual object category representations as well as the codebook words used to encode them. The codebook is defined using Gaussian Mixture Models which are updated using new object views. The approach contains similarities with the human visual object recognition system: evidence suggests that the development of recognition capabilities occurs on multiple levels and is sustained over large periods of time. Results show that the proposed system with concurrent learning of object categories and codebooks is capable of learning more categories, requiring less examples, and with similar accuracies, when compared to the classical Bag of Words approach using codebooks constructed offline.

	Title	Experts Agents in PEM Fuel Cell Control			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2015	Publication	4ta International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	896 - 900
	Keywords	s- PEM Fuel Cell; Expert Agent; Perceptive Agents; Acting Agent; Fuzzy Controller
	Abstract	In the control of the PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) fuel cell, the existence of both deliberative and reactive processes that facilitate the tasks of control resulting from a wide range of operating scenarios and range of conditions it is required. The latter is essential to adjust its parameters to the multiplicity of circumstances that may occur in the operation of the PEM stack. In this context, the design and development of an expert-agents based architecture for autonomous control of the PEM stack in top working conditions is presented. The architecture integrates perception and control algorithms using sensory and context information. It is structured in a hierarchy of levels with different time window and level of abstraction. The monitoring model and autonomic control of PEM stack has been validated with different types of PEM stacks and operating conditions demonstrating high reliability in achieving the objective of the proposed energy efficiency. Dynamic control of the wetting of the membrane is a clear example.

	Title	Modeling and comparative study of linear and nonlinear controllers for rotary inverted pendulum			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2017	Publication	Journal of Physics: Conference Series	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	783	Issue		Pages
	Keywords
	Abstract	The rotary inverted pendulum (RIP) is a problem difficult to control, several studies have been conducted where different control techniques have been applied. Literature reports that, although problem is nonlinear, classical PID controllers presents appropriate performances when applied to the system. In this paper, a comparative study of the performances of linear and nonlinear PID structures is carried out. The control algorithms are evaluated in the RIP system, using indices of performance and power consumption, which allow the categorization of control strategies according to their performance. This article also presents the modeling system, which has been estimated some of the parameters involved in the RIP system, using computer-aided design tools (CAD) and experimental methods or techniques proposed by several authors attended. The results indicate a better performance of the nonlinear controller with an increase in the robustness and faster response than the linear controller

	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	Determinación de Invariantes en Grandes Centros de Datos basados en Topología Fat-Tree			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2015	Publication	Revista Politécnica	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	Vol. 35	Issue		Pages	pp. 91-96
	Keywords	Invariantes de red, topologías, Fat-tree, simulación, emulación
	Abstract	Durante los últimos años ha existido un fuerte incremento en el acceso a internet, causando que los centros de datos ( DC) deban adaptar dinámicamente su infraestructura de red de cara a enfrentar posibles problemas de congestión, la cual no siempre se da de forma oportuna. Ante esto, nuevas topologías de red se han propuesto en los últimos años, como una forma de brindar mejores condiciones para el manejo de tráfico interno, sin embargo es común que para el estudio de estas mejoras, se necesite recrear el comportamiento de un verdadero DC en modelos de simulación/emulación. Por lo tanto se vuelve esencial validar dichos modelos, de cara a obtener resultados coherentes con la realidad. Esta validación es posible por medio de la identificación de ciertas propiedades que se deducen a partir de las variables y los parámetros que describen la red, y que se mantienen en las topologías de los DC para diversos escenarios y/o configuraciones. Estas propiedades, conocidas como invariantes, son una expresión del funcionamiento de la red en ambientes reales, como por ejemplo la ruta más larga entre dos nodos o el número de enlaces mínimo que deben fallar antes de una pérdida de conectividad en alguno de los nodos de la red. En el presente trabajo se realiza la identificación, formulación y comprobación de dos invariantes para la topología Fat-Tree, utilizando como software emulador a mininet. Las conclusiones muestran resultados concordantes entre lo analítico y lo práctico.
