Enhanced Variational Image Dehazing
Authors: Galdran, Adrian,Vazquez-Corral, Javier,Pardo, David,Bertalmío, Marcelo
Images obtained under adverse weather conditions, such as haze or fog, typically exhibit low contrast and faded colors, which may severely limit the visibility within the scene. Unveiling the image structure under the haze layer and recovering vivid colors out of a single image remains a…

A Novel Weakly Supervised Problem: Learning from Positive-Unlabeled Proportions
Authors: Jerónimo Hernández-González,Iñaki Inza,Jose A. Lozano
Standard supervised classification learns a classifier from a set of labeled examples. Alternatively, in the field of weakly supervised classification different frameworks have been presented where the training data cannot be certainly labeled. In this paper, the novel problem of learning from…

Instantaneous three-dimensional thermal structure of the South Polar Vortex of Venus
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Ricardo Hueso,A. García Muñoz,I. Garate-Lopez
The Venus thermal radiation spectrum exhibits the signature of $CO_2$ absorption bands. By means of inversion techniques, those bands enable the retrieval of atmospheric temperature profiles. We have analyzed VIRTIS-M-IR night-side data obtaining high-resolution thermal maps of Venus south polar…

A review of message passing algorithms in estimation of distribution algorithms
Authors: Jose A. Lozano,Alexander Mendiburu,Roberto Santana
Message passing algorithms (MPAs) have been traditionally used as an inference method in probabilistic graphical models. Some MPA variants have recently been introduced in the field of estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) as a way to improve the efficiency of these algorithms. Multiple…

Locality-aware policies to improve job scheduling on 3D tori
Authors: Jose Miguel-Alonso,Jose A. Lozano,Jose Antonio Pascual
This paper studies the influence that contiguous job placement has on the performance of schedulers for large-scale computing systems. In contrast with non-contiguous strategies, contiguous partitioning enables the exploitation of communication locality in applications, and also reduces inter-…
