A Review on Deep Learning Techniques for Video Prediction.

The ability to predict, anticipate and reason about future outcomes is a key component of intelligent decision-making systems. In light of the success of deep learning in computer vision, deep-learning-based video prediction emerged as a promising research direction. Defined as a self-supervised learning task, video prediction represents a suitable framework for representation learning, as it demonstrated potential capabilities for extracting meaningful representations of the underlying patterns in natural videos.

An sEMG-Controlled 3D Game for Rehabilitation Therapies: Real-Time Time Hand Gesture Recognition Using Deep Learning Techniques.

In recent years the advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been seen to play an important role in human well-being, in particular enabling novel forms of human-computer interaction for people with a disability. In this paper, we propose a sEMG-controlled 3D game that leverages a deep learning-based architecture for real-time gesture recognition. The 3D game experience developed in the study is focused on rehabilitation exercises, allowing individuals with certain disabilities to use low-cost sEMG sensors to control the game experience.

Evaluation of different chrominance models in the detection and reconstruction of faces and hands using the growing neural gas network.

Physical traits such as the shape of the hand and face can be used for human recognition and identification in video surveillance systems and in biometric authentication smart card systems, as well as in personal health care. However, the accuracy of such systems suffers from illumination changes, unpredictability, and variability in appearance (e.g.

UASOL, a large-scale high-resolution outdoor stereo dataset.

In this paper, we propose a new dataset for outdoor depth estimation from single and stereo RGB images. The dataset was acquired from the point of view of a pedestrian. Currently, the most novel approaches take advantage of deep learning-based techniques, which have proven to outperform traditional state-of-the-art computer vision methods.

Inferring Static Hand Poses from a Low-Cost Non-Intrusive sEMG Sensor.

Every year, a significant number of people lose a body part in an accident, through sickness or in high-risk manual jobs. Several studies and research works have tried to reduce the constraints and risks in their lives through the use of technology. This work proposes a learning-based approach that performs gesture recognition using a surface electromyography-based device, the Myo Armband released by Thalmic Labs, which is a commercial device and has eight non-intrusive low-cost sensors.

Fast 2D/3D object representation with growing neural gas.

This work presents the design of a real-time system to model visual objects with the use of self-organising networks. The architecture of the system addresses multiple computer vision tasks such as image segmentation, optimal parameter estimation and object representation. We first develop a framework for building non-rigid shapes using the growth mechanism of the self-organising maps, and then we define an optimal number of nodes without overfitting or underfitting the network based on the knowledge obtained from information-theoretic considerations.

A comparative study of registration methods for RGB-D video of static scenes.

The use of RGB-D sensors for mapping and recognition tasks in robotics or, in general, for virtual reconstruction has increased in recent years. The key aspect of these kinds of sensors is that they provide both depth and color information using the same device. In this paper, we present a comparative analysis of the most important methods used in the literature for the registration of subsequent RGB-D video frames in static scenarios.

Autonomous Growing Neural Gas for applications with time constraint: optimal parameter estimation.

This paper aims to address the ability of self-organizing neural network models to manage real-time applications. Specifically, we introduce fAGNG (fast Autonomous Growing Neural Gas), a modified learning algorithm for the incremental model Growing Neural Gas (GNG) network. The Growing Neural Gas network with its attributes of growth, flexibility, rapid adaptation, and excellent quality of representation of the input space makes it a suitable model for real time applications.
