• Proyecto Context-Aware Video Detection and Interpretation of Suspicious Behavior Using Distributed Robust Deep Learning
In collaboration with Dr. Paul Rad and Dr. David Han of the University of Texas at San Antonio.
Principal Investigator: Hugo Terashima Marín. Fondo Tec-UTSA $40000USD.
The proposed intelligent image/video analytics technology will allow users to: Search for images/videos by identifying not only objects but also structured relationships and attributes involving these objects, like: “find an image or video in which a man is carrying a bomb in the airport”; Understand the consistency between textual features and visual contents; Recognize all of the connections and effects between deep extracted features and retrieve images by considering all the dependencies of features; Identify and tag meaningful high-level situation descriptions presented in the retrieved video, like a person threatening another with a weapon, a person playing with a pet, etc.; and Based on results of previous objectives, work along a methodology for searching for meaningful features in order to detect suspicious behavior in video for a particular context.

• One Step closer to mental health: promptly detection of depression with wearables technology and voice analysis.
Principal Investigator: Luis Angel Trejo Rodríguez.
Symptoms of depression can be detected with machine learning algorithms techniques, using heart rate variability, sleeping patterns, type of personality and physical activity as attributes. The main objective is to develop an intelligent system to detect in time, through wearables, voice analysis, and machine learning, levels of depression of high risk in the final user.

• Space-time laminar computing: event-based spike neuromorphic processors for sensory computation.
Principal Investigator: César Torres Huitzil.
Computing in its diverse forms has become essential to most aspects of modern life, but it still fails in some of the basic tasks that biological systems (humans) perform easily and efficiently, such as perception, motor control, language processing, etc. Far beyond “intelligence”, computing based on current single-processor architectures and the associated semiconductor technology are facing fundamental physical limits (scalability, power consumption, process variations, noise margins, and fault tolerance, etc.) that prevent them achieving better performances only through improved processor technologies. The aim of this project is to provide the knowledge to develop a new class of event-driven spike neuroprocessors aimed at power efficient sensory computation under a neuro-inspired space-time laminar computational framework.
