	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.

	Title	Camera pose estimation in multi-view environments:from virtual scenarios to the real world			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2021	Publication	In Image and Vision Computing Journal. (Article number 104182)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	Vol. 110	Issue		Pages
	Keywords	Relative camera pose estimation, Domain adaptation, Siamese architecture, Synthetic data, Multi-view environments
	Abstract	This paper presents a domain adaptation strategy to efficiently train network architectures for estimating the relative camera pose in multi-view scenarios. The network architectures are fed by a pair of simultaneously acquired images, hence in order to improve the accuracy of the solutions, and due to the lack of large datasets with pairs of overlapped images, a domain adaptation strategy is proposed. The domain adaptation strategy consists on transferring the knowledge learned from synthetic images to real-world scenarios. For this, the networks are firstly trained using pairs of synthetic images, which are captured at the same time by a pair of cameras in a virtual environment; and then, the learned weights of the networks are transferred to the real-world case, where the networks are retrained with a few real images. Different virtual 3D scenarios are generated to evaluate the relationship between the accuracy on the result and the similarity between virtual and real scenarios—similarity on both geometry of the objects contained in the scene as well as relative pose between camera and objects in the scene. Experimental results and comparisons are provided showing that the accuracy of all the evaluated networks for estimating the camera pose improves when the proposed domain adaptation strategy is used, highlighting the importance on the similarity between virtual-real scenarios.

	Volume		Issue		Pages
	Keywords	processing, software engineering, deep learning, intelligent vision systems, cloud computing.
	Abstract	Deep learning is experiencing an upward technology trend that is revolutionizing intelligent systems in several domains, such as image and speech recognition, machine translation, social network filtering, and the like. By reviewing a total of 80 studies reported from 2016 to 2020, the present article evaluates the application of software engineering to the field of intelligent image processing systems, it also offers insights about aspects related to distributed computing for this type of systems. Results indicate that several topics of software engineering are mostly applied when academics are involved in developing projects associated to this kind of intelligent systems. The findings provide evidences that Apache Spark is the most utilized distributed computing framework for image processing. In addition, Tensorflow is a popular framework used to build convolutional neural networks, which are the prevailing deep learning algorithms used in intelligent image processing systems. Also, among big cloud providers, Amazon Web Services is the preferred computing platform across the industry sectors, followed by Google cloud.

	Title	A fuzzy model to manage water in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2021	Publication	In Processes Journal. (Article number 904)	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	Vol. 9	Issue	Issue 6	Pages
	Keywords	PEM fuel cell, fuzzy, neural network, electrical response, flooding, drying.
	Abstract	In this paper, a fuzzy model is presented to determine in real-time the degree of dehydration or flooding of a proton exchange membrane of a fuel cell, to optimize its electrical response and consequently, its autonomous operation. By applying load, current and flux variations in the dry, normal, and flooded states of the membrane, it was determined that the temporal evolution of the fuel cell voltage is characterized by changes in slope and by its voltage oscillations. The results were validated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and show slope changes from 0.435 to 0.52 and oscillations from 3.6 mV to 5.2 mV in the dry state, and slope changes from 0.2 to 0.3 and oscillations from 1 mV to 2 mV in the flooded state. The use of fuzzy logic is a novelty and constitutes a step towards the progressive automation of the supervision, perception, and intelligent control of fuel cells, allowing them to reduce their risks and increase their economic benefits.

	Title	Open Control Architecture for the Characterization and Control of the PEM Fuel Cell			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2019	Publication	IEEE ETCM 2019 Fourth Ecuador Technical Chapters Meeting; Guayaquil, Ecuador	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	1-5
	Keywords	PEM fuel cell, Experimental System, Control Engineering.
	Abstract	Proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells, are an efficient and clean source of electrical energy. The analysis of its operation requires experimental work, which allows measuring, modeling and optimizing PEM fuel cells electrical behavior under different operating conditions. Therefore, having an experimentation platform that allows to easily carry out its study and control is essential. This research presents the design and development of an open instrumental system that allows measuring, controlling and determining the operating parameters of a PEM fuel cell. As results, the polarization curves, voltage-current, obtained by the system itself in different experimental conditions are shown. These curves are a very useful tool to evaluate the electrical behavior of the PEM battery.

	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 oers 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 dierent types of semantic segmentation networks and using the same evaluation metrics is also included.
