In this study, a relationship between scanner response (RGB) and CIE tristimulus values (XYZ) is established by regression technique with different polynomials for colored polyester fabrics. The results showed that the transformation process is material dependent and higher order polynomials will fit the experimental data better than lower polynomials. The results also showed that the way the c...

This paper describes a palette-based colored image segmentation system. In this paper we analyzed the properties of Hue, Saturation, and Luminance (HSL) color space with emphasis on the visual perception of the variation in Hue, Saturation and Luminance values of palette colors. The proposed algorithm based on the concept of re-coloring the palette colors of 256-color images using the propertie...

This paper describes a novel method for finding colorant amounts for which a printer will produce a requested color appearance based on constrained optimization. An error function defines the gamut mapping method and black replacement method. The constraints limit the feasible solution region to the device gamut and prevent exceeding the maximum total area coverage. Colorant values correspondin...

We propose two vertex-coloring problems for graphs, endorsing the spectrum of colors with a matrix of interferences between pairs of colors. In the Threshold Spectrum Coloring problem, the number of colors is fixed and the aim is to minimize the maximum interference at a vertex (interference threshold). In the Chromatic Spectrum Coloring problem, a threshold is settled and the aim is to minimiz...

Eiszler, C.F. (2002). College students' evaluations of teaching and grade inflation. Research in Higher Education, 43(4), 483-501. This study examined the relationship between grades and students’ composite ratings of teaching effectiveness over a 20-year period at a comprehensive, public university in the upper Midwest. Between the spring of 1980 and the fall of 1999, students in more than 37,...

The achromatic number α of a graph is the largest number of colors that can be assigned to its vertices such that adjacent vertices have different color and every pair of different colors appears on the end vertices of some edge. We estimate the achromatic number of Kneser graphs K(n, k) and determine α(K(n, k)) for some values of n and k. Furthermore, we study the achromatic number of some geo...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the brain activation patterns in response to thehuman color preference by using a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fmri). a total of 31 healthyhumans without color blindness were participated in this study. the brain activation was induced by viewingof eight different colors: black, gray, blue, green, earthy yellow, red, yellow and white. the q...

Abstract Along with hallucinations and illusions, afterimages have shaped the philosophical debate about nature of perception. Often referred to as optical or visual experiences been abundantly exploited by philosophers argue against naïve realism. This paper offers an alternative account this traditional view providing a tentative colors from objectivist perspective. Contrary widespread approa...

Introduction: This study aimed to devise customized fixtures for the evaluation of three-point bending strength (TPBS) of resin-based dental composites (RBCs). Materials and Methods: A cube-shaped jig made out of wood with dimensions of 105×105×101 mm was prepared in this study. A 20-mm-diameter hole was made in the center of the wooden jig. In addition, a stai...
