Much more is possible in achieving brighter, more vibrant colors for a richer visual experience in emerging, wide-gamut display media. Yet, both digital cinema and broadcast TV content fall well short of this promise. In this paper, we provide the means for realizing this promise by identifying certain memory colors (e.g., green grass, red, and blue sky) and rendering each independently making ...

Periderm is a tissue of secondary origin that replaces damaged epidermis. It can be found in underground plant organs, as an above-ground tissue of woody species (cork), and as a wound-healing tissue. Its outer layers are composed of phellem cells with suberized walls that constitute a protective barrier, preventing pathogen invasion and fluid loss. In potato, a model for periderm studies, peri...

Wrinkles are important visual features on the skin of an animated character. However, realistic animation of wrinkles is not easy, especially for the hand, as it gathers many types of different wrinkles. In this paper, we present a computationally efficient method for the generation of hand wrinkles, both for the palm and the fingers. This method is developed by exploiting the inherent properti...

‘Vermillion’ sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] was developed by the Louisiana Agricultural Experiment Station to provide an orange-flesh, deep-red–purple-skin cultivar with superior storage root shape, skin smoothness, disease resistance Fusarium wilt, and excellent qualities. is average in production beds proper presprouting. It can be harvested up 10 d earlier than ‘Covington’ (Yencho e...

A fuzzy logic-based color histogram analysis technique is presented for discriminating benign skin lesions from malignant melanomas in dermoscopy images. The approach extends previous research for utilizing a fuzzy set for skin lesion color for a specified class of skin lesions, using alpha-cut and support set cardinality for quantifying a fuzzy ratio skin lesion color feature. Skin lesion disc...

The color of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit flesh is often used as an indicator of quality. Generally, fruit color is determined by the accumulation of carotenoids and flavonoids, along with concomitant degradation of chlorophylls during ripening. Several genes, such as phytoenesynthetase1 (Psy1), STAY-GREEN (SGR), and SlMYB12, have been extensively studied to elucidate the genes controlli...
