Is Green A Good Color For A House? Typological Transfer And The LOG ID Experiment

Tiago André Pratas Borges, Anja Fröhlich

Architecture is a prospective discipline. In other words, the practice of architecture traditionally explores design methods in which a particular solution is speculated upon, in order to answer a particular set of questions. These solutions tend to be org ...

Effects of multiple scattering on angle-independent structural color in disordered colloidal materials

Sofia Magkiriadou

Disordered packings of colloidal spheres show angle-independent structural color when the particles are on the scale of the wavelength of visible light. Previous work has shown that the positions of the peaks in the reflectance spectra can be predicted acc ...

Effect of Indoor Temperature and Glazing with Saturated Color on Visual Perception of Daylight

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

This paper presents the combined effect of indoor temperature (19 degrees C, 22 degrees C, and 26 degrees C) and colored glazing (blue, orange, and neutral) on visual perception of daylight. Experiments were performed in an office-like test room, in which ...

Deep Semantic Segmentation Using Nir As Extra Physical Information

Sabine Süsstrunk, Siavash Arjomand Bigdeli

Deep neural networks for semantic segmentation are most often trained with RGB color images, which encode the radiation visible to the human eyes. In this paper, we study if additional physical scene information, specifically Near-Infrared (NIR) images, im ...

Wide Gamut Spectral Upsampling with Fluorescence

Wenzel Alban Jakob

Physically based spectral rendering has become increasingly important in recent years. However, asset textures in such systems are usually still drawn or acquired as RGB tristimulus values. While a number of RGB to spectrum upsampling techniques are availa ...

Color Image Segmentation Using a Fuzzy Inference System

Matin Macktoobian

A novel method is proposed in the scope of image segmentation that solves this problem by breaking it into two main blocks. The first block's functionality is a method to anticipate the color basis of each segment in segmented images. One of the challenges ...

Functional Decomposition Using Majority

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Zhufei Chu

Typical operators for the decomposition of Boolean functions in state-of-the-art algorithms are AND, exclusive-OR (XOR), and a 2-to-1 multiplexer (MUX). We propose a logic decomposition algorithm that uses the majority-of-three (MAJ) operation. Such decomp ...
