Photoconsortium is an association of photographic archives that contributed over 450.000 images of early photography to Europeana. In this contribution we discuss lessons learned, in particular on digitization and copy‐ right issues and describe the activities involved in managing state-of-the-art digi‐ tized photographic archives. We discuss follow-on project activities such as Europeana Space...

The word ‘domestic’ implies that the activities take place mainly in homes, and the home is the h...

In this paper, we investigated the mechanism of dividing a 2Dobject border into a set of local and global indentation and protrusion segments by extending the classic curvature scale-space filtering method. The resultant segments, arranged in hierarchical structures, can represent the object shape. Applying this technique, we derived a border irregularity measure for pigmented skin lesions. The...
