INDIVIDUALITY IN ANTIQUE ART

Antique Team

In this document, we use the Abstract Interpretation framework to analyze concurrent programs using Thread-Modular Analysis. We designed a relational abstraction of interferences in order to infer more properties and go beyond the state of the art. We implemented a basic analyzer, studying the numerical properties of a simple language. We present the results obtained, as well as a study of the ...

Individuality in science:Richard Feynman.

Art is regarded as largely individual while science, at least contemporary science, is increasingly the work of large groups. And yet, from time to time a scientist appears who makes an individual mark on the entire enterprise, much like exceptional artists do. One such person was Richard P. Feynman (1918–1988) (1–3 ). Feynman was born in New York and was a mathematical prodigy: his exceptional...

Digital Restoration for Antique Documents

Different advantages stem from the digital restoration of documents of high cultural value. In this paper different techniques to digital restoration of antique documents are reported. In particular, we address the problem of virtual restoration of photographic prints. We propose a classification of defects related to their origin presenting also some non linear techniques able to restore the m...

Detection of Water Blotches in Antique Documents

In this paper we propose a new algorithm to detect the water blotches in antique documents. It is based on the segmentation of the image with morphological reconstructions combined with the rational filer (RF). Experimental results show that it is able to achieve good results also in critical situations.
