Automated underwater object classification using optical imagery
This thesis addresses the problem of automated underwater optical image characterization. Remote underwater optical sensing allows the collection and storage of vast amounts of data for which manual classification may take ...
Computer-aided lesion detection and segmentation on breast ultrasound
This thesis deals with the detection, segmentation and classification of lesions on sonography. The contribution of the thesis is the development of a new Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) framework capable of detecting, ...
Deformable object segmentation in ultra-sound images
This thesis analyses the current strategies to segment breast lesions in Ultra-Sound (US) data and proposes a fully automatic methodology for generating accurate segmentations of breast lesions in US data with low false ...
Framework for detection, assessment and assistance of university students with dyslexia and/or reading difficulties
During the past years, the adoption of Learning Management System (LMS) to support an e-learning process has been continuously growing. Hence, a potential need and meaningful factor to provide a personalized support, within ...
Atlas-based segmentation of multiple sclerosis lesions in magnetic resonance imaging
This thesis deals with the segmentation of brain magnetic resonance imaging applied to multiple sclerosis patients. This disease is characterised by the presence of white matter lesions in this image modality. After a ...
Simultaneous detection and segmentation for generic objects
This thesis deals with the simultaneous detection and segmentation for generic objects in images. The proposed approach is based on building a dictionary of patches, which defines the object and allows the extraction of ...
Learning design implementation in context-aware and adaptive mobile learning
Mobile learning (m-learning) is still in its infancy, and great efforts should be made so as to investigate the potentials of an educational paradigm shift from the traditional one-size-fits-all teaching approaches to an ...
Image blending techniques and their application in underwater mosaicing
The fusion of several images of the same scene into a single and larger composite is known as photo-mosaic. Unfortunately, the seams along image boundaries are often noticeable, due to photometrical and geometrical ...
Robust image segmentation applied to magnetic resonance and ultrasound images of the prostate
Prostate segmentation in trans rectal ultrasound (TRUS) and magnetic resonance images (MRI) facilitates volume estimation, multi-modal image registration, surgical planing and image guided prostate biopsies. The objective ...
Supporting competence development processes on open learning systems through personalization
This thesis aim for promoting the learning objects economy by offering teacher the possibility of generating adaptive and standardized learning designs. The adaptation of the generated learning design considers two of the ...
MSSPACC: Sistema d'execució paral·lela d'aplicacions amb especulació sobre entorns distribuïts
The research we have conducted has been aimed at developing a new mechanism of extraction and use of parallelism at a high level, based on speculation techniques, in cluster environments. This allows our mechanism to be ...
Medium access control messaging scheme for cognitive radio networks
Cognitive Radio (CR) is one possible option for mitigating the inefficient wireless spectrum distribution that occurs as a result of fixed spectrum allocation. The use of Dynamic Spectrum Access capabilities will potentially ...
One-shot pattern projection for dense and accurate 3D reconstruction in structured light
This thesis focuses on the problem of 3D acquisition using coded structured light (CSL). In CSL, a projected pattern impinges artificial texture onto the object surface, increasing the number of correspondences in the ...
Appearance-based mapping and localization using feature stability histograms for mobile robot navigation
This work proposes an appearance-based SLAM method whose main contribution is the Feature Stability Histogram (FSH). The FSH is built using a voting schema, if the feature is re-observed, it will be promoted; otherwise it ...
Path planning with homotopic constraints for autonomous underwater vehicles
This thesis addresses the path planning problem for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) using homotopy classes to provide topological information on how paths avoid obstacles. Looking for a path within a homotopy class ...
Computer vision techniques for early detection of skin cancer
This thesis investigates the problem of developing new computer vision techniques for early detection of skin cancer. The first part of this work presents a novel methodology to correct color reproduction in dermatological ...
Robustness against large-scale failures in communications networks
This thesis studies robustness against large-scale failures in communications networks. If failures are isolated, they usually go unnoticed by users thanks to recovery mechanisms. However, such mechanisms are not effective ...
A mission control system for an autonomous underwater vehicle
The presented work focuses on the theoretical and practical aspects concerning the design and development of a formal method to build a mission control system for autonomous underwater vehicles bringing systematic design ...
Efficient topology estimation for large scale optical mapping
Large scale image mosaicing methods are in great demand among scientists who study different aspects of the seabed, and have been fostered by impressive advances in the capabilities of underwater robots in gathering optical ...
