Social learning is thought to be a key determinant of the demand for motion pictures. This can be a double-edged sword for motion picture distributors, however, because when a film is good, social learning can enhance the effectiveness of movie advertising, but when a film is bad, it can mitigate this effectiveness. This paper analyzes an equilibrium model of the demand for films and the supply...

When a color video system with highly accurate color reproduction is designed, a good measure is required for evaluating the image quality including the color reproduction. There are some degradation sources in a total imaging system from image acquisition to image reproduction. Color random noise is one of major degradations which is often added in image capture phase. In this paper, we invest...

Line scratches are common degradations in motion picture films. This paper presents an efficient method for line scratches detection strengthened by a Kalman filter. A new interpolation technique, dealing with both low and high frequencies (i.e. film grain) around the line artifacts, is investigated to achieve a nearby invisible reconstruction of damaged areas. Our line scratches detection and ...
