Ítem Texto completo enlazado Object detection in videos using principal component pursuit and convolutional neural networks(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2018-05-03) Tejada Gamero, Enrique David; Rodríguez Valderrama, Paul AntonioObject recognition in videos is one of the main challenges in computer vision. Several methods have been proposed to achieve this task, such as background subtraction, temporal differencing, optical flow, particle filtering among others. Since the introduction of Convolutonal Neural Networks (CNN) for object detection in the Imagenet Large Scale Visual Recognition Competition (ILSVRC), its use for image detection and classification has increased, becoming the state-of-the-art for such task, being Faster R-CNN the preferred model in the latest ILSVRC challenges. Moreover, the Faster R-CNN model, with minimum modifications, has been succesfully used to detect and classify objects (either static or dynamic) in video sequences; in such setup, the frames of the video are input “as is” i.e. without any pre-processing. In this thesis work we propose to use Robust PCA (RPCA, a.k.a. Principal Component Pursuit, PCP), as a video background modeling pre-processing step, before using the Faster R-CNN model, in order to improve the overall performance of detection and classification of, specifically, the moving objects. We hypothesize that such pre-processing step, which segments the moving objects from the background, would reduce the amount of regions to be analyzed in a given frame and thus (i) improve the classification time and (ii) reduce the error in classification for the dynamic objects present in the video. In particular, we use a fully incremental RPCA / PCP algorithm that is suitable for real-time or on-line processing. Furthermore, we present extensive computational results that were carried out in three different platforms: A high-end server with a Tesla K40m GPU, a desktop with a Tesla K10m GPU and the embedded system Jetson TK1. Our classification results attain competitive or superior performance in terms of Fmeasure, achieving an improvement ranging from 3.7% to 97.2%, with a mean improvement of 22% when the sparse image was used to detect and classify the object with the neural network, while at the same time, reducing the classification time in all architectures by a factor raging between 2% and 25%.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Desarrollo y comparación de diversos mapas de probabilidades en 3D del cáncer de próstata a partir de imágenes de histología(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2013-12-04) Díaz Rojas, Kristians Edgardo; Castañeda Aphan, BenjamínUnderstanding the spatial distribution of prostate cancer and how it changes according to prostate specific antigen (PSA) values, Gleason score, and other clinical parameters may help comprehend the disease and increase the overall success rate of biopsies. This work aims to build 3D spatial distributions of prostate cancer and examine the extent and location of cancer as a function of independent clinical parameters. The border of the gland and cancerous regions from whole-mount histopathological images are used to reconstruct 3D models showing the localization of tumor. This process utilizes color segmentation and interpolation based on mathematical morphological distance. 58 glands are deformed into one prostate atlas using a combination of rigid, a ne, and b-spline deformable registration techniques. Spatial distribution is developed by counting the number of occurrences in a given position in 3D space from each registered prostate cancer. Finally a di erence between proportions is used to compare di erent spatial distributions. Results show that prostate cancer has a significant di erence (SD) in the right zone of the prostate between populations with PSA greater and less than 5 ng=ml. Age does not have any impact in the spatial distribution of the disease. Positive and negative capsule-penetrated cases show a SD in the right posterior zone. There is SD in almost all the glands between cases with tumors larger and smaller than 10% of the whole prostate. A larger database is needed to improve the statistical validity of the test. Finally, information from whole-mount histopathological images could provide better insight into prostate cancer.Ítem Texto completo enlazado Automatic regularization parameter selection for the total variation mixed noise image restoration framework(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2013-03-27) Rojas Gómez, Renán Alfredo; Rodríguez Valderrama, Paúl AntonioImage restoration consists in recovering a high quality image estimate based only on observations. This is considered an ill-posed inverse problem, which implies non-unique unstable solutions. Regularization methods allow the introduction of constraints in such problems and assure a stable and unique solution. One of these methods is Total Variation, which has been broadly applied in signal processing tasks such as image denoising, image deconvolution, and image inpainting for multiple noise scenarios. Total Variation features a regularization parameter which defines the solution regularization impact, a crucial step towards its high quality level. Therefore, an optimal selection of the regularization parameter is required. Furthermore, while the classic Total Variation applies its constraint to the entire image, there are multiple scenarios in which this approach is not the most adequate. Defining different regularization levels to different image elements benefits such cases. In this work, an optimal regularization parameter selection framework for Total Variation image restoration is proposed. It covers two noise scenarios: Impulse noise and Impulse over Gaussian Additive noise. A broad study of the state of the art, which covers noise estimation algorithms, risk estimation methods, and Total Variation numerical solutions, is included. In order to approach the optimal parameter estimation problem, several adaptations are proposed in order to create a local-fashioned regularization which requires no a-priori information about the noise level. Quality and performance results, which include the work covered in two recently published articles, show the effectivity of the proposed regularization parameter selection and a great improvement over the global regularization framework, which attains a high quality reconstruction comparable with the state of the art algorithms.
