The mechanisms by which the brain represents colors are largely unknown. In addition, the large number of color phenomena in the natural world has made understanding color rather difficult. Color transparency perception, which is studied in this thesis, is ...
The color-appearance model CIECAM02 has several problems, which can result in mathematical instabilities, due to the relation of the chromatic-adaptation primaries to the spectrum locus and to the presumed physiological cone primaries. To keep a correspond ...
Printing with custom inks is of interest both for artistic purposes and for printing security documents such as banknotes. However, in order to create designs with only a few custom inks, a general purpose high-quality gamut reduction technique is needed. ...
Electronic imaging devices produce the illusion of synthesizing continuous colors by applying halftones, which are repetitive structures of discrete micro-elements. By themselves, these microstructures do not carry any meaning: their only purpose is to foo ...
Random textures differ from natural textures because they lack structure. Structure is a concept that is difficult to formalize, however, we generally observe that it is associated to spatial dependency between adjacent pixels. Random textures, in fact, ar ...
In an encoder for encoding symbols of data using a computing device having memory constraints, a method of performing a transformation comprising loading a source block into memory of the computing device, performing an intermediate transformation of less ...
Material classification is becoming more important in computer vision and digital photography applications, which require accurate classification of objects present in the imaged scene. This is a very challenging task because the sheer diversity of scene c ...
Stress is a strong modulator of memory function. However, memory is not a unitary process and stress seems to exert different effects depending on the memory type under study. Here, we explored the impact of social stress on different aspects of human memo ...
In nature, textures can be found everywhere. Texture, together with color and shape, represents the fundamental characteristics of objects. Texture conveys an idea of repetition of a certain structure, which is not limited only to the visual domain. We can ...
We investigated the spectral properties of color detection mechanisms via a noise masking paradigm. Contrast detection thresholds were measured for equiluminant chromatic modulations in the (L-M,S-(L+M))-plane within a random texture. Each texture image wa ...
