This article documents the collective interpretations of film reviewers, a position typically associated with individual aesthetic judgment rather than socially shared scripts of explanation. Drawing on the reviews of a feature film with implicit racial content, produced in the context of a supposedly “color-blind” era, this article documents how reviewers constitute a racialized interpretive c...

The cinematographic archives represent an important part of our collective memory. We present in this paper some advances in automating the color fading restoration process, especially with regard to the automatic color correction technique. The proposed color correction method is based on the ACE model, an unsupervised color equalization algorithm based on a perceptual approach and inspired by...

Ultrafast pulsed laser irradiation is demonstrated to be able to produce surface nano-structuring and simultaneous crystallization of amorphous silicon thin film in one step laser processing. After fs laser irradiation on 80 nm-thick a-Si deposited on Corning 1737 glass substrate, the color change from light yellow to dark brown was observed on the sample surface. AFM images show that the surfa...

Solution-cast coating films of perchlorate-doped oligo(3-methoxythiophene) exhibited a gold-like luster similar to that metallic gold despite the involvement no metals. However, development mechanism remains ambiguous. To understand mechanism, we performed scanning electron microscopic analysis, variable-angle spectral reflectance measurements, and ellipsometry measurements on ClO4−-doped cast ...

im experimental program has investigated the practicality of synchronized rotating filter wheels at the input and output of an image intensifier to produce a fieldsequential color image. Both military and commercial intensifier tubes were used. Reasonably true-color rendition was obtained, even with the limitations imposed by crude equipment and tar-from-optimum filters. Fundamental limitations...

Purpose: To study and compare the dose response curves of the new GafChromic EBT3 film for megavoltage and kilovoltage x-ray beams, with different spatial resolutions. Methods: EBT3 films (lot#A101711-02) were exposed to each x-ray beam (6 MV, 15 MV, and 50 kV) at 7 dose values (50 3200 cGy). Each film piece was scanned three consecutive times in the center of Epson 10000XL flatbed scanner in 4...

the main objectives of this research were the study and comparing the microstructure of pva-stnccand pva-st-mmt by x ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy (afm) and as well as,comparing the effects of two nanoparticle on surface hydrophilicity and moisture absorption. xdiffraction patterns showed that microstructure of the pva-st-mmt films was exfoliated andpva-st-ncc was closer to interc...
