This paper presents a method for the registration of range image pairs that were captured from different locations. The proposed approach assumes that a common 3D plane is least visible in both scans. Based on this assumption the number of unknown transform parameters reduces from six to three. An orthogonal rectification process is then used to convert the 3D data into 2D depth images and corr...

Present state of the art does not allow guaranteeing the exemption of unwanted biological growth on building coatings under all circumstances without the use of biocides. Currently only a limited range of active substances against façade microorganisms are available. In order to achieve an appropriate and ecological use of biocides in building coatings it is important to know about possible tol...

This paper presents a generative grammar producing a language of patterns for the south façade of a prototype sustainable house. The patterns are produced through the activation of the electrochromic material that is applied on the windowpanes of the façade. The class of the performatively effective configurations of the façade is approached as a visual language and the productive (generation),...

The market events of 2007-2008 have reinvigorated the search for realistic share price models that capture greater likelihoods of extreme movements and that also reflect fearand greed-linked trading expressed through price-motivated trades. In this paper we model the medium-term log-return dynamics in a market containing both fundamental and technical traders. This is done in a simple way based...

In this research, untreated and surface-treated wooden facades of buildings are investigated compared with regard to durability, environmental impact, cost using the document literature studies supplemented quantitative data. The investigation is based on influence wood by external factors, either in its natural form or a protective layer surface treatment. It resulted from study that durabilit...
