Abstract | One interesting publicity application for Smart City environments is recognizing brand information contained in urban advertising panels. For such a purpose, a previous stage is to accurately detect and locate the position of these panels in images. This work presents an effective solution to this problem using a Single Shot Detector (SSD) based on a deep neural network architecture that minimizes the number of false detections under multiple variable conditions regarding the panels and the scene. Achieved experimental results using the Intersection over Union (IoU) accuracy metric make this proposal applicable in real complex urban images. |

Abstract | Los drones o aeronaves no tripuladas son muy útiles para la adquisición de imágenes, de forma mucho más simple que los satélites o aviones. Sin embargo, las imágenes adquiridas por drones deben ser combinadas de alguna forma para convertirse en información de valor sobre un terreno o cultivo. Existen diferentes programas que reciben imágenes y las combinan en una sola imagen, cada uno con diferentes características (rendimiento, precisión, resultados, precio, etc.). En este estudio se revisaron diferentes programas de código abierto para fusión de imágenes, con el ?n de establecer cuál de ellos es más útil, especí?camente para ser utilizado por pequeños y medianos agricultores en Ecuador. Los resultados pueden ser de interés para diseñadores de software, ya que al utilizar código abierto, es posible modi?car e integrar los programas en un ?ujo de trabajo más simpli?cado. Además, que permite disminuir costos debido a que no requiere de pagos de licencias para su uso, lo cual puede repercutir en un mayor acceso a la tecnología para los pequeños y medianos agricultores. Como parte de los resultados de este estudio se ha creado un repositorio de acceso público con algoritmos de pre-procesamiento necesarios para manipular las imágenes adquiridas por una cámara multiespectral y para luego obtener un mapa completo en formatos RGB, CIR y NDVI. | ||||

Abstract | Due to the lack of thermal image datasets, a new dataset has been acquired for proposed a superesolution approach using a Deep Convolution Neural Network schema. In order to achieve this image enhancement process a new thermal images dataset is used. Di?erent experiments have been carried out, ?rstly, the proposed architecture has been trained using only images of the visible spectrum, and later it has been trained with images of the thermal spectrum, the results showed that with the network trained with thermal images, better results are obtained in the process of enhancing the images, maintaining the image details and perspective. The thermal dataset is available at http://www.cidis.espol.edu.ec/es/dataset | ||||

Abstract | This paper presents the simplification of the head movements from the analysis of the biomechanical parameters of the head and neck at the mechanical and structural level through CAD modeling and construction with additive printing in ABS/PLA to implement non-verbal communication strategies and establish behavior patterns in the social interaction. This is using in the denominated MASHI (Multipurpose Assistant robot for Social Human-robot Interaction) experimental robotic telepresence platform, implemented by a display with a fish-eye camera along with the mechanical mechanism, which permits 4 degrees of freedom (DoF). In the development of mathematicalmechanical modeling for the kinematics codification that governs the robot and the autonomy of movement, we have the Pitch, Roll, and Yaw movements, and the combination of all of them to establish an active communication through telepresence. For the computational implementation, it will be show the rotational matrix to describe the movement. |

Title | Real time Qualitative Model for estimate Water content in PEM Fuel Cell | Type | Conference Article | ||
Year | 2019 | Publication | 8th International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications (ICRERA 2019); Brasov, Rumania | Abbreviated Journal | |

Abstract | To maintain optimum performance of the electrical response of a fuel cell, a real time identification of the malfunction situations is required. Critical fuel cell states depend, among others, on the variable demand of electric load and are directly related to the membrane hydration level. The real time perception of relevant states in the PEM fuel cell states space, is still a challenge for the PEM fuel cell control systems. Current work presents the design and implementation of a methodology based upon fuzzy decision techniques that allows real time characterization of the dehydration and flooding states of a PEM fuel cell. Real time state estimation is accomplished through a perturbation-perception process on the PEM fuel cell and further on voltage oscillation analysis. The real time implementation of the perturbation-perception algorithm to detect PEM fuel cell critical states is a novelty and a step forwards the control of the PEM fuel cell to reach and maintain optimal performance. |

Title | Transients analysis in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells: A critical review | Type | Conference Article | ||
Year | 2019 | Publication | 8th International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications (ICRERA 2019); Brasov, Rumania | Abbreviated Journal | |

Abstract | When a proton exchange fuel cell operates it produces in addition to electrical energy, heat and water as sub products, which impact on the performance of the cell. This paper analyzes the issue of transients and proposes a model that describes the dynamic operation of the fuel cell. The model considers the transients produced by electrochemical reactions, by flow water and by heat transfer. Two-phase flow transients result in increased the parasitic power losses and thermal transients may result in flooding or dryout of the GDL and membrane, understanding transient behavior is critical for reliable and predictable performance from the cell. |

Abstract | This paper presents details of a distributed platform intended for data acquisition, evaluation, storage and visualization, which is fully implemented under the crowdsourcing paradigm. The proposed platform is the result from collaboration between computer science and petrology researchers and it is intended for academic purposes. The platform is designed within a MTV (Model, Template and View) architecture and also designed for a collaborative data store and managing of rocks from multiple readers and writers, taking advantage of ubiquity of web applications, and neutrality of researchers from different communities to validate the data. The platform is being used and validated by students and academics from our university; in the near future it will be open to other users interested on this topic. |

Title | Forward and Inverse Kinematics of a Humanoid Robot Head for Social Human Robot-Interaction | Type | Conference Article | ||
Year | 2019 | Publication | IEEE ETCM 2019 Fourth Ecuador Technical Chapters Meeting; Guayaquil, Ecuador | Abbreviated Journal | |
Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | This paper presents an analysis of forward and inverse kinematics for a humanoid robotic head. The robotic head is used for the study of social human-robot interaction, such as a support tool to maintain the attention of patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The design of a parallel robot that emulates human head movements through a closed structure is presented. The position and orientation in this space is controlled by three servomotors. For this, the solutions made for the kinematic problem are encompassed by a geometric analysis of a mobile base. This article describes a non-systematic method, called the geometric method, and compares some of the most popular existing methods considering reliability and computational cost. The geometric method avoids the use of changing reference systems, and instead uses geometric relationships to directly obtain the position based on joint variables; and the other way around. Therefore, it converges in a few iterations and has a low computational cost. |
