An electronic tongue to identify hard to detect explosive compounds
Chemicals explosives are used in mining industries and civil constructions¸ unfortunately also in terrorist attacks. One of these compounds which is often used in this last objective is triperoxid of triacetone, because it can be produced...
Advanced image processing techniques for automatic detection of polyps, colorectal cancer precursor lesions.
Researchers from Computer Vision Center (CVC) and Digestive Endoscopy Unit from Hospital Clinic de Barcelona have jointly developed image processing tools which allow an automatic...
Can Machines Talk? Comparison of Eliza With Modern Dialogue Systems
Created in 1966, ELIZA was a computer programme which simulated conversations with users. Since then, other chat bots have been created, and are more advanced. This study comparatively analyses five chat bots highly valued in the Turing Test and...
NEO: PROLOG: Disability Assessment In The Workplace
Researchers of the Transmèdia Group have created PROLOG, a computer platform which conducts cognitive assessments of people with intellectual disabilities in the workplace. The objective is to make it form part of current protocols when measuring degrees of...
NEO: A Tailor-Made Video Game
Researchers from the Centre for Ambient Accessibility of Catalonia, the UAB Engineering School and the CIPO psychology team have created a video game to strengthen the cognitive and motor skills of people with intellectual disabilities and mental disorders.
NEO: Learning languages while you cook
Two researchers from the UAB worked on the European LanCook project, a new method to learn languages while cooking. With the help of digital technology, this new method promotes learning languages in real-life situations.
Spin-off: Aeris
Aeris develops technologies and systems for the biological treatment of liquid and gaseous pollutants that neither consume chemical reagents nor produce secondary pollutants.
New application recognises author and style of painting
Researchers at the UAB Computer Vision Centre have achieved to create a computer application which automatically recognises the author and style of paintings. The system "learns" from a large database containing over 2,000 paintings and deduces the works...
Virtual and Real World Adaptation for Pedestrian Detection
Pedestrian detection is currently a key component of systems present in many markets such as the automotive, surveillance and multimedia industries. However, this application involves a tiresome collection and annotation of large amount of data required for its...
