Assisted living technologies can be of great importance for taking care of elderly people and
helping them to live independently. In this work, we propose a monitoring system designed …

Annotated datasets for automatic white balance (AWB) are used for the evaluation and,
when necessary, the training, of AWB methods. Relying on such datasets requires …

Estimating distances between people and robots plays a crucial role in understanding social
Human–Robot Interaction (HRI) from an egocentric view. It is a key step if robots should …

We present a review of methods for automatic estimation of visual saliency: the perceptual
property that makes specific elements in a scene stand out and grab the attention of the …

We propose a novel modular CNN architecture that provides semantic segmentation and
understanding of outdoor street environment images. Our solution processes a 512x1024 …

Visually impaired people are limited to detecting obstacles when walking in an outdoor
environment. This research aims to detect, estimate distance and relative position of the …

Road direction signs depict textual and directional information to convey instructions about
how to reach a given destination. Detecting and interpreting road direction signs constitutes …

We investigate the negative effects of rain streaks over the performance of a neural network
for real time semantic segmentation of street scenes. This is done by synthetically …

Target ranging is the premise for manipulators to complete agronomic operations such as
picking and field management; however, complex environmental backgrounds and …
