Combining Obstacle Avoidance with Robocentric Localization in a Reactive Visual Navigation Task
Reconfigurable AUV for intervention missions: a case study on underwater object recovery
Starting in January 2009, the RAUVI (Reconfigurable Autonomous Underwater Vehicle for Intervention Missions) project is a 3-year coordinated research action funded by the Spanish Ministry of Research and Innovation. In this paper, the state of progress after 2 years...
Design and verification by means of model checking of reCANdrv: a media redundancy management driver for the nodes of a ReCANcentrate network
Controller Area Network (CAN) is a fieldbus widely used in distributed control systems. However, despite its wide use, it is controversial that CAN can be used for systems that require a high level of reliability. This is due to a series of severe dependability...

A Control Software Architecture for Autonomous Unmanned Vehicles inspired in Generic Components
This paper describes GLOC3, a general software control architecture intended for unmanned vehicles. Applying a criterion of maximizing software maintainability and reusability, as well as fulfilling the monitoring and logging needs that arise from any experimental...
Integración de Imágenes Electrocardiográficas en el Servicio de Salud de las Islas Baleares
En este artículo se presenta la arquitectura propuesta en el ámbito de la sanidad pública balear para la integración de diversos sistemas de información que tienen relación con imágenes electrocardiográficas. Con este proyecto se pretende concentrar todos estos...
Experimental Assessment of Different Image Descriptors for Topological Map-Building and Scene Recognition
An autonomous robot needs to perform some tasks in order to be independent. Some of these tasks require that the agent is able to locate itself in its environment. This process is known in mobile robotics as localization and it can be achieved by di fferent ways...
An AdaBoost-based Approach for Coating Breakdown Detection in Metallic Surfaces
Vessel maintenance entails periodic visual inspections of internal and external parts of the vessel hull in order to detect structural failures. Typically, this is done by trained surveyors at great cost. Clearly, assisting them during the inspection process by means...

Detection of Lesions in Colonoscopic Images: A Review
Colonoscopy is one of the best methods for screening colon cancer and still is the gold standard despite advancements in the field of virtual endoscopy based on computer-tomographic imaging. As the automatic detection of polyps in endoscopic images is a challenging...
