Abstract

This article presents a system focused on the detection of three types of abnormal walk patterns caused by neurological diseases, specifically Parkinsonian gait, Hemiplegic gait, and Spastic Diplegic gait. A Kinect sensor is used to extract the Skeleton from a person during its walk, to then calculate four types of bases that generate different sequences from the 25 points of articulations that the Skeleton gives. For each type of calculated base, a recurrent neural network (RNN) is trained, specifically a Long short-term memory (LSTM). In addition, there is a graphical user interface that allows the acquisition, training, and testing of trained networks. Of the four trained networks, 98.1% accuracy is obtained with the database that was calculated with the distance of each point provided by the Skeleton to the Hip-Center point.

Abstract

This paper presents the implementation and evaluation of different convolutional neural network architectures focused on food segmentation. To perform this task, it is proposed the recognition of 6 categories, among which are the main food groups (protein, grains, fruit, vegetables) and two additional groups, rice and drink or juice. In addition, to make the recognition more complex, it is decided to test the networks with food dishes already started, i.e. during different moments, from its serving to its finishing, in order to verify the capability to see when there is no more food on the plate. Finally, a comparison is made between the two best resulting networks, a SegNet with architecture VGG-16 and a network proposed in this work, called Residual Segmentation Convolutional Neural Network or ResSeg, with which accuracies greater than 90% and interception-over-union greater than 75% were obtained. This demonstrates the ability, not only of SegNet architectures for food segmentation, but the use of residual layers to improve the contour of the segmentation and segmentation of complex distribution or initiated of food dishes, opening the field of application of this type of networks to be implemented in feeding assistants or in automated restaurants, including also for dietary control for the amount of food consumed.

Abstract

In the field of robotics, it is essential to know the work area in which the agent is going to develop, for that reason, different methods of mapping and spatial location have been developed for different applications. In this article, a machine vision algorithm is proposed, which is responsible for identifying objects of interest within a work area and determining the polar coordinates to which they are related to the observer, applicable either with a fixed camera or in a mobile agent such as the one presented in this document. The developed algorithm was evaluated in two situations, determining the position of six objects in total around the mobile agent. These results were compared with the real position of each of the objects, reaching a high level of accuracy with an average error of 1.3271% in the distance and 2.8998% in the angle.
