Abstract
Quality control represents a critical function in industrial environments, ensuring that manufactured products meet strict standards and remain free from defects. In highly regulated sectors such as the pharmaceutical industry, traditional manual inspection methods remain widely used. However, these are time-consuming and prone to human error, and they lack the reliability required for large-scale operations, highlighting the urgent need for automated solutions. This is crucial for industrial applications, where environments evolve and new defect types can arise unpredictably. This work proposes an automated visual defect detection system specifically designed for pharmaceutical bottles, with potential applicability in other manufacturing domains. Various methods were integrated to create robust tools capable of real-world deployment. A key strategy is the use of incremental learning, which enables machine learning models to incorporate new, unseen data without full retraining, thus enabling adaptation to new defects as they appear, allowing models to handle rare cases while maintaining stability and performance. The proposed solution incorporates a multi-view inspection setup to capture images from multiple angles, enhancing accuracy and robustness. Evaluations in real-world industrial conditions demonstrated high defect detection rates, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Abstract
In football, where minor differences can significantly affect outcomes and performance, automatic video analysis has become a critical tool for analyzing and optimizing team strategies. However, many existing solutions require expensive and complex hardware comprising multiple cameras, sensors, or GPS devices, limiting accessibility for many clubs, particularly those with limited resources. Using images and video from a moving camera can help a wider audience benefit from video analysis, but it introduces new challenges related to motion. To address this, we explore an alternative homography estimation in moving camera scenarios. Homography plays a crucial role in video analysis, but presents challenges when keypoints are sparse, especially in dynamic environments. Existing techniques predominantly rely on visible keypoints and apply homography transformations on a frame-by-frame basis, often lacking temporal consistency and facing challenges in areas with sparse keypoints. This paper explores the use of estimated motion information for homography computation. Our experimental results reveal that integrating motion data directly into homography estimations leads to reduced errors in keypoint-sparse frames, surpassing state-of-the-art methods, filling a current gap in moving camera scenarios.

Abstract
Anomaly Detection has been a significant field in Machine Learning since it began gaining traction. In the context of Computer Vision, the increased interest is notorious as it enables the development of video processing models for different tasks without the need for a cumbersome effort with the annotation of possible events, that may be under represented. From the predominant strategies, weakly and semi-supervised, the former has demonstrated potential to achieve a higher score in its analysis, adding to its flexibility. This work shows that using temporal ranking constraints for Multiple Instance Learning can increase the performance of these models, allowing the focus on the most informative instances. Moreover, the results suggest that altering the ranking process to include information about adjacent instances generates best-performing models.

Abstract
We propose a unified architecture for visual scene understanding, aimed at overcoming the limitations of traditional, fragmented approaches in computer vision. Our work focuses on creating a system that accurately and coherently interprets visual scenes, with the ultimate goal to provide a 3D virtual representation, which is particularly useful for applications in virtual and augmented reality. By integrating various visual and semantic processing tasks into a single, adaptable framework, our architecture simplifies the design process, ensuring a seamless and consistent scene interpretation. This is particularly important in complex systems that rely on 3D synthesis, as the need for precise and semantically coherent scene descriptions keeps on growing. Our unified approach addresses these challenges, offering a flexible and efficient solution. We demonstrate the practical effectiveness of our architecture through a proof-of-concept system and explore its potential in various application domains, proving its value in advancing the field of computer vision.
