A comprehensive review. In International Conference on Advances in Emerging Trends and Technologies (ICAETT 2019); Quito, Ecuador (pp. 248–259).
Abstract: Computer Vision has its own Turing test: Can a machine describe the contents of an image or a video in the way a human being would do? In this paper, the progress of Deep Learning for image recognition is analyzed in order to know the answer to this question. In recent years, Deep Learning has increased considerably the precision rate of many tasks related to computer vision. Many datasets of labeled images are now available online, which leads to pre-trained models for many computer vision applications. In this work, we gather information of the latest techniques to perform image understanding and description. As a conclusion we obtained that the combination of Natural Language Processing (using Recurrent Neural Networks and Long Short-Term Memory) plus Image Understanding (using Convolutional Neural Networks) could bring new types of powerful and useful applications in which the computer will be able to answer questions about the content of images and videos. In order to build datasets of labeled images, we need a lot of work and most of the datasets are built using crowd work. These new applications have the potential to increase the human machine interaction to new levels of usability and user’s satisfaction.

Abstract: In this work, we explore the use of images from different spectral bands to classify defects in melamine faced panels, which could appear through the production process. Through experimental evaluation, we evaluate the use of images from the visible (VS), near-infrared (NIR), and long wavelength infrared (LWIR), to classify the defects using a feature descriptor learning approach together with a support vector machine classifier. Two descriptors were evaluated, Extended Local Binary Patterns (E-LBP) and SURF using a Bag of Words (BoW) representation. The evaluation was carried on with an image set obtained during this work, which contained five different defect categories that currently occurs in the industry. Results show that using images from beyond
the visual spectrum helps to improve classification performance in contrast with a single visible spectrum solution.

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
