Hand gesture recognition for user-defined textual inputs and gestures (2024)
Journal Article
Wang, J., Ivrissimtzis, I., Li, Z., & Shi, L. (online). Hand gesture recognition for user-defined textual inputs and gestures. Universal Access in the Information Society, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10209-024-01139-6

Despite recent progress, hand gesture recognition, a highly regarded method of human computer interaction, still faces considerable challenges. In this paper, we address the problem of individual user style variation, which can significantly affect s... Read More about Hand gesture recognition for user-defined textual inputs and gestures.

A multiscale optimisation algorithm for shape and material reconstruction from a single X-ray image (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Westmacott, H., Ivrissimtzis, I., & Weinzierl, T. (2024, January). A multiscale optimisation algorithm for shape and material reconstruction from a single X-ray image. Presented at ICIGP 2024: The 7th International Conference on Image and Graphics Processing, Beijing, China

We produce thickness and bone to soft tissue ratio estimations from a single, 2D medical X-ray image. For this, we simulate the scattering of the rays through a model of the object and embed this simulation into an optimiser which iteratively adjusts...

Anomaly Detection with Transformers in Face Anti-spoofing (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abduh, L., Omar, L., & Ivrissimtzis, I. (2023, May). Anomaly Detection with Transformers in Face Anti-spoofing. Presented at WSGC 2023: 31. International Conference in Central Europe on Computer Graphics, Visualization and Computer Vision 2023, Plzen, Czech Republic

Transformers are emerging as the new gold standard in various computer vision applications, and have already been used in face anti-spoofing demonstrating competitive performance. In this paper, we propose a network with the ViT transformer and ResNe... Read More about Anomaly Detection with Transformers in Face Anti-spoofing.

Race Bias Analysis of Bona Fide Errors in Face Anti-spoofing (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abduh, L., & Ivrissimtzis, I. (2023, September). Race Bias Analysis of Bona Fide Errors in Face Anti-spoofing. Presented at CAIP 2023: The 20th International Conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns, Limassol, Cyprus

The study of bias in Machine Learning is receiving a lot of attention in recent years, however, few only papers deal explicitly with the problem of race bias in face anti-spoofing. In this paper, we present a systematic study of race bias in face ant... Read More about Race Bias Analysis of Bona Fide Errors in Face Anti-spoofing.

Exploring the Potential of Immersive Virtual Environments for Learning American Sign Language (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, J., Ivrissimtzis, I., Li, Z., Zhou, Y., & Shi, L. (2023, September). Exploring the Potential of Immersive Virtual Environments for Learning American Sign Language. Presented at ECTEL 2023: Eighteenth European Conference on Technology Enhanced Learning, Aveiro, Portugal

Sign languages enable effective communication between deaf and hearing people. Despite years of extensive pedagogical research, learning sign language online comes with a number of difficulties that might be frustrating for some students. Indeed, mos...

Developing and Evaluating a Novel Gamified Virtual Learning Environment for ASL (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, J., Ivrissimtzis, I., Li, Z., Zhou, Y., & Shi, L. (2023, August). Developing and Evaluating a Novel Gamified Virtual Learning Environment for ASL. Presented at INTERACT 2023: IFIP Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, York

The use of sign language is a highly effective way of communicating with individuals who experience hearing loss. Despite extensive research, many learners find traditional methods of learning sign language, such as web-based question-answer methods,...

Bivariate non-uniform subdivision schemes based on L-systems (2023)
Journal Article
Gérot, C., & Ivrissimtzis, I. (2023). Bivariate non-uniform subdivision schemes based on L-systems. Applied Mathematics and Computation, 457, Article 128156. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amc.2023.128156

L–systems have been used to describe non-uniform, univariate, subdivision schemes, which offer more flexible refinement processes than the uniform schemes, while at the same time are easier to analyse than the geometry driven non-uniform schemes. In... Read More about Bivariate non-uniform subdivision schemes based on L-systems.

Big data for human security: The case of COVID-19 (2022)
Journal Article
Cárdenas, P., Ivrissimtzis, I., Obara, B., Kureshi, I., & Theodoropoulos, G. (2022). Big data for human security: The case of COVID-19. Journal of Computational Science, 60, Article 101574. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jocs.2022.101574

The COVID-19 epidemic has changed the world dramatically since societies are changing their behaviour according to the new normal, which comes along with numerous challenges and uncertainties. These uncertainties have led to instabilities in several... Read More about Big data for human security: The case of COVID-19.

Quality perception and discrimination thresholds in quantised triangle meshes (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Almutairi, A., Saarela, T., & Ivrissimtzis, I. (2021, June). Quality perception and discrimination thresholds in quantised triangle meshes. Presented at Sixth International Workshop on Pattern Recognition, Beijing, China

At certain stages of the graphics pipeline, and most notably during compression for transmission and storage, triangle meshes may undergo a fixed-point arithmetic quantisation of their vertex coordinates. This paper presents the results of a psychoph... Read More about Quality perception and discrimination thresholds in quantised triangle meshes.
