Abstract
It has been known for a while that the problem of multi-source domain adaptation can be regarded as a single source domain adaptation task where the source domain corresponds to a mixture of the original source domains. Nonetheless, how to adjust the mixture distribution weights remains an open question. Moreover, most existing work on this topic focuses only on minimizing the error on the source domains and achieving domain-invariant representations, which is insufficient to ensure low error on the target domain. In this work, we present a novel framework that addresses both problems and beats the current state of the art by using a mildly optimistic objective function and consistency regularization on the target samples.

Abstract
With the advent of self-driving cars, and big companies such as Waymo or Bosch pushing forward into fully driverless transportation services, the in-vehicle behaviour of passengers must be monitored to ensure safety and comfort. The use of audio-visual information is attractive by its spatio-temporal richness as well as non-invasive nature, but faces tile likely constraints posed by available hardware and energy consumption. Hence new strategies are required to improve the usage of these scarce resources. We propose the processing of audio and visual data in a cascade pipeline for in-vehicle action recognition. The data is processed by modality-specific sub-modules. with subsequent ones being used when a confident classification is not reached. Experiments show an interesting accuracy-acceleration trade-off when compared with a parallel pipeline with late fusion, presenting potential for industrial applications on embedded devices.

Abstract
Presentation attacks are recurrent threats to biometric systems, where impostors attempt to bypass these systems. Humans often use background information as contextual cues for their visual system. Yet, regarding face-based systems, the background is often discarded, since face presentation attack detection (PAD) models are mostly trained with face crops. This work presents a comparative study of face PAD models (including multi-task learning, adversarial training and dynamic frame selection) in two settings: with and without crops. The results show that the performance is consistently better when the background is present in the images. The proposed multi-task methodology beats the state-of-the-art results on the ROSE-Youtu dataset by a large margin with an equal error rate of 0.2%. Furthermore, we analyze the models' predictions with Grad-CAM++ with the aim to investigate to what extent the models focus on background elements that are known to be useful for human inspection. From this analysis we can conclude that the background cues are not relevant across all the attacks. Thus, showing the capability of the model to leverage the background information only when necessary.

Abstract
Introduction: Breast volume estimation is considered crucial for breast cancer surgery planning. A single, easy, and reproducible method to estimate breast volume is not available. This study aims to evaluate, in patients proposed for mastectomy, the accuracy of the calculation of breast volume from a low-cost 3D surface scan (Microsoft Kinect) compared to the breast MRI and water displacement technique. Material and Methods: Patients with a Tis/T1-T3 breast cancer proposed for mastectomy between July 2015 and March 2017 were assessed for inclusion in the study. Breast volume calculations were performed using a 3D surface scan and the breast MRI and water displacement technique. Agreement between volumes obtained with both methods was assessed with the Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results: Eighteen patients with invasive breast cancer were included in the study and submitted to mastectomy. The level of agreement of the 3D breast volume compared to surgical specimens and breast MRI volumes was evaluated. For mastectomy specimen volume, an average (standard deviation) of 0.823 (0.027) and 0.875 (0.026) was obtained for the Pearson and Spearman correlations, respectively. With respect to MRI annotation, we obtained 0.828 (0.038) and 0.715 (0.018). Discussion: Although values obtained by both methodologies still differ, the strong linear correlation coefficient suggests that 3D breast volume measurement using a low-cost surface scan device is feasible and can approximate both the MRI breast volume and mastectomy specimen with sufficient accuracy. Conclusion: 3D breast volume measurement using a depth-sensor low-cost surface scan device is feasible and can parallel MRI breast and mastectomy specimen volumes with enough accuracy. Differences between methods need further development to reach clinical applicability. A possible approach could be the fusion of breast MRI and the 3D surface scan to harmonize anatomic limits and improve volume delimitation.

Abstract
Ordinal classification tasks are present in a large number of different domains. However, common losses for deep neural networks, such as cross-entropy, do not properly weight the relative ordering between classes. For that reason, many losses have been proposed in the literature, which model the output probabilities as following a unimodal distribution. This manuscript reviews many of these losses on three different datasets and suggests a potential improvement that focuses the unimodal constraint on the neighborhood around the true class, allowing for a more flexible distribution, aptly called quasi-unimodal loss. For this purpose, two constraints are proposed: A first constraint concerns the relative order of the top-three probabilities, and a second constraint ensures that the remaining output probabilities are not higher than the top three. Therefore, gradient descent focuses on improving the decision boundary around the true class in detriment to the more distant classes. The proposed loss is found to be competitive in several cases.

Abstract
Deep Learning achieves state-of-the-art results in many domains, yet its black-box nature limits its application to real-world contexts. An intuitive way to improve the interpretability of Deep Learning models is by explaining their decisions with similar cases. However, case-based explanations cannot be used in contexts where the data exposes personal identity, as they may compromise the privacy of individuals. In this work, we identify the main limitations and challenges in the anonymization of case-based explanations of image data through a survey on case-based interpretability and image anonymization methods. We empirically analyze the anonymization methods in regards to their capacity to remove personally identifiable information while preserving relevant semantic properties of the data. Through this analysis, we conclude that most privacy-preserving methods are not sufficiently good to be applied to case-based explanations. To promote research on this topic, we formalize the privacy protection of visual case-based explanations as a multi-objective problem to preserve privacy, intelligibility, and relevant explanatory evidence regarding a predictive task. We empirically verify the potential of interpretability saliency maps as qualitative evaluation tools for anonymization. Finally, we identify and propose new lines of research to guide future work in the generation of privacy-preserving case-based explanations.
