In order to analyse paintings, specialists use many different techniques exploring different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum: near infra-red, ultra-violet, X-rays, etc. But surprisingly, the visual domain has rarely been analysed, probably because colour perception is a very complex domain, being rather difficult to analyse adequately by means of automatic techniques. Our visual sensation...

This paper argues that the Yuan dynasty Daoist Huang Gongwang’s 黃公望 (1269–1354) painting Clearing after Sudden Snow resonates with principles of inner alchemy (neidan, 內丹), particularly stage known as resurgence yang force.

Interactivity is an integral part of engaging children with what they are learning. We address this engagement by creating an interactive entertainment and learning tool for children to use in the classroom or at home using a painting scenario. We do this by coalescing music, multimedia and electronics together through the real-time mapping of painting gestures into musical output and feedback....

In this paper a dynamic image representation is proposed by combining advantages of both raster and vector graphics in the triangulation. In order for a dynamic mesh to remain a triangulation, a method which maintains integrity of representation is devised. Together with techniques for synthesizing paint, the end result is a configurable scheme demonstrating potential as a viable alternative fo...

Introduction: There has been a growing interest in glass ceramic systems with good esthetics, high fracture resistance, bonding durability, and simplified fabrication techniques using CAD/CAM. The aim of this study was to compare flexural strength in "polished" and "glazed and fired" specimens of zirconium lithium silicate (ZLS) CAD/CAM blocks Celtra Duo. Methods</stron...

Quality of glazed (G) and non-glazed air-blast frozen rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was evaluated after applying different modern (M: microwave oven; U: ultrasonic; HVEFT: high voltage electrical field; O: ohmic heating) and conventional (S: steam cooking; W: water; R: refrigeration) thawing methods. Glazed frozen samples thawed by modern and conventional methods showed an increase in pro...

Painting style transformation aims to produce a painting in a particular artist’s style from a picture or other paintings. In the previous implementations of example-based painting style transfer, users had to manually select the patches from example patches. It is time-consuming and subjective for a user to select proper patches from a large number of patches. This paper develops a patch-based...
