We have shown that it is possible to achieve artistic style transfer within a purely image processing paradigm. This is in contrast to previous work that utilized deep neural networks to learn the difference between “style” and “content” in a painting. We leverage the work by Kwatra et. al. on texture synthesis to accomplish “style synthesis” from our given style images, building off the work o...

Micro world of belonging to a certain region is a starting point towards the wider, macro world. Poetry, as a universal phenomenon, enables the opening of all borders in the most noble, most intimate way. Istrian dialectal poetry and chakavian poets have insured the survival of different language idioms of the Istrian peninsula which would have disappeared if transmitted only through oral forms...

The importance of visualization in conveying knowledge is undisputed. For example, the rise and fall of stocks is processed and understood faster by examining the corresponding line graph than looking at the raw underlying numbers. For the effectiveness of this cognitive process several factors have been identified in research, like for example the background knowledge, as well as its inherent ...

The energy audit for a building is a procedure designed mainly to obtain adequate knowledge of the energy consumption profile, identify, and quantify opportunities for energy savings by a cost-benefit analysis and report, clearly and comprehensively, about the obtained results.

BACKGROUND Art is a characteristic of mankind, which requires superior central nervous processing and integration of motor functions with visual information. At the present time, a significant amount of information related to neurobiological basis of artistic creation has been derived from neuro-radiological cognitive studies, which have revealed that subsequent to tissue destruction, the artis...

This paper deals with relations of mathematics and fine art with a focus on geometric structures captured as visual art compositions. It aims to show similarities between mathematical and artistic solutions applied in the creation of a piece of work – artistic masterpiece or mathematical assumption. Some ideas are brought about their common underlying principles and motifs together with the con...

since plato is regarded as the first philosopher who started writing on aesthetics and impacted upon artistic aesthetics following him, a review of his perspective on artistic aesthetic is of crucial importance. although fine arts in its current form have not existed at the time of plato, his ideas could be discovered from what he has sporadically expressed on fine arts. there are two viewpoint...
