Revolutions of Mural Painting

Mural Painting Digital Surveys

The method presented in this paper answers the following question related to the documentation of mural painting conservation: how can information technology be applied in order to achieve ease of symbolizing and updating, better accuracy, flexible presentation, ease of integration and cross-link with other data? Furthermore, another important issue: are all these possible at a low cost? 1. GRA...

Technological Revolutions

In skill-biased (de-skilling) technological revolutions learning investments required by new machines are greater (smaller) than those required by preexisting machines. Skill-biased (de-skilling) revolutions trigger reallocations of capital from slow(fast-) to fast(slow-) learning workers, thereby reducing the relative and absolute wages of the former. The model of skill-biased (de-skilling) re...

Defect detection in mural painting by random infrared thermography associated with singular value decomposition and higher orders statistics

In this paper, we studied the association of random infrared thermography, Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and Higher Order Statistics (HOS) to help to restore works of art. We present first, the principle of theses signal processing methods. We show then, that this association allows detection of inclusions of plastazote located in an academic fresco. We show in a third stage that this phot...
