Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
The objective of the proposed TFG is to develop efficient
algorithms capable of: i) identifying (multiple) objects in static
images, and ii) tracking their motion across various frames of a
video.

The student will start by solving a simple machine learning task
(e.g., recognizing hand-written digits), and then proceed to study
the more complex case of object recognition in real photos.
Finally,
he/she will analyze videos containing moving objects (like for
example multiple airplanes taxiing around an airport, or acrobatic
airplanes performing stunts in the sky), and write an algorithm
capable of following their motion.

Object recognition and tracking have immediate, fast-growing
applications in engineering, telecommunications, informatics, and
physics. The director of the proposed TFG is also a guest scientist
at the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO), so that if the
occasion
arises the student will have the chance to visit the labs and the
research teams working therein, and attend relevant research
seminars.
 
Overview (resum en anglès):

The aim of this project is to understand the concepts underlying machine learning and how to implement those. To achieve this purpose, an exhaustive study of the origins of this technology has been made, describing the most popular types of neural networks, their history, and the architectures and subsequent implementations.

Three implementations of neural networks are presented, using world-known datasets. In the last implementation, an exhaustive study has been realized to achieve the best performance algorithm taking into account different settings. In the second part of the project, Detectron2 has been used, an advanced machine learning program that performs object detection. We have worked with this program and executed a study of the motion of moving airplanes, implementing a new method to track objects given a set of images extracted from a given video.
