Sensors Journal | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Vol. 14 | Issue | Pages | pp. 3690-3701 | |
| Keywords | 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 | 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 | Fast CNN Stereo Depth Estimation through Embedded GPU Devices | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2020 | Publication |
Sensors 2020 | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Vol. 2020-June | Issue | 11 | Pages | pp. 1-13 |
| Keywords | stereo matching; deep learning; embedded GPU | ||||
| Abstract | Current CNN-based stereo depth estimation models can barely run under real-time constraints on embedded graphic processing unit (GPU) devices. Moreover, state-of-the-art evaluations usually do not consider model optimization techniques, being that it is unknown what is the current potential on embedded GPU devices. In this work, we evaluate two state-of-the-art models on three different embedded GPU devices, with and without optimization methods, presenting performance results that illustrate the actual capabilities of embedded GPU devices for stereo depth estimation. More importantly, based on our evaluation, we propose the use of a U-Net like architecture for postprocessing the cost-volume, instead of a typical sequence of 3D convolutions, drastically augmenting the runtime speed of current models. In our experiments, we achieve real-time inference speed, in the range of 5–32 ms, for 1216 368 input stereo images on the Jetson TX2, Jetson Xavier, and Jetson Nano embedded devices. |

| Title | Incremental Scenario Representations for Autonomous Driving using Geometric Polygonal Primitives | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2016 | Publication |
Robotics and Autonomous Systems Journal | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Vol. 83 | Issue | Pages | pp. 312-325 | |
| Keywords | Incremental scene reconstructionPoint cloudsAutonomous vehiclesPolygonal primitives | ||||
| Abstract | When an autonomous vehicle is traveling through some scenario it receives a continuous stream of sensor data. This sensor data arrives in an asynchronous fashion and often contains overlapping or redundant information. Thus, it is not trivial how a representation of the environment observed by the vehicle can be created and updated over time. This paper presents a novel methodology to compute an incremental 3D representation of a scenario from 3D range measurements. We propose to use macro scale polygonal primitives to model the scenario. This means that the representation of the scene is given as a list of large scale polygons that describe the geometric structure of the environment. Furthermore, we propose mechanisms designed to update the geometric polygonal primitives over time whenever fresh sensor data is collected. Results show that the approach is capable of producing accurate descriptions of the scene, and that it is computationally very efficient when compared to other reconstruction techniques. | ||||

| Title | Incremental Texture Mapping for Autonomous Driving | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2016 | Publication |
Robotics and Autonomous Systems Journal | Abbreviated Journal | |
| Volume | Vol. 84 | Issue | Pages | pp. 113-128 | |
| Keywords | Scene reconstruction, Autonomous driving, Texture mapping | ||||
| Abstract | Autonomous vehicles have a large number of on-board sensors, not only for providing coverage all around the vehicle, but also to ensure multi-modality in the observation of the scene. Because of this, it is not trivial to come up with a single, unique representation that feeds from the data given by all these sensors. We propose an algorithm which is capable of mapping texture collected from vision based sensors onto a geometric description of the scenario constructed from data provided by 3D sensors. The algorithm uses a constrained Delaunay triangulation to produce a mesh which is updated using a specially devised sequence of operations. These enforce a partial configuration of the mesh that avoids bad quality textures and ensures that there are no gaps in the texture. Results show that this algorithm is capable of producing fine quality textures. | ||||

| 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. | ||||

| Abstract | Comúnmente durante la rehabilitación física, el diagnóstico dado por el especialista se basa en observaciones cualitativas que sugieren, en algunos casos, conclusiones subjetivas. El presente trabajo propone un enfoque cuantitativo, orientado a servir de ayuda a fisioterapeutas, a través de una herramienta interactiva y de bajo costo que permite medir los movimientos de miembros superiores. Estos movimientos son capturados por un sensor RGB-D y procesados mediante la metodología propuesta, dando como resultado una eficiente representación de movimientos, permitiendo la evaluación cuantitativa de movimientos de los miembros superiores. | ||||
