Abstract:
ABSTRACT Cosmology and galaxy evolution studies with LSST, Euclid, and Roman, will require accurate redshifts for the detected galaxies. In this study, we present improved photometric redshift estimates for galaxies using a template library that populates three-colour space and is constrained by HST/CANDELS photometry. For the training sample, we use a sample of galaxies having photometric redshifts that allows us to train on a large, unbiased galaxy sample having deep, unconfused photometry at optical-to-mid infrared wavelengths. Galaxies in the training sample are assigned to cubes in 3D colour space, V − H, I − J, and z − H. We then derive the best-fitting spectral energy distributions of the training sample at the fixed CANDELS median photometric redshifts to construct the new template library for each individual colour cube (i.e. colour-cube-based template library). We derive photometric redshifts (photo-z) of our target galaxies using our new colour-cube-based template library and with photometry in only a limited set of bands, as expected for the aforementioned surveys. As a result, our method yields σNMAD of 0.026 and an outlier fraction of 6 per cent using only photometry in the LSST and Euclid/Roman bands. This is an improvement of ∼10 per cent on σNMAD and a reduction in outlier fraction of ∼13 per cent compared to other techniques. In particular, we improve the photo-z precision by about 30 per cent at 2 < z < 3. We also assess photo-z improvements by including K or mid-infrared bands to the ugrizYJH photometry. Our colour-cube-based template library is a powerful tool to constrain photometric redshifts for future large surveys.

Abstract This article is the result of initial tests and studies about two systems for chromatic representation. It introduces and discusses the use and importance of two graphic codes created in Portugal as well as their graphic application on information and communication systems in an inclusive manner for individuals with different chromatic perceptions and needs. Designed mainly for people with colour blindness and visual impairment, ColorADD and Feelipa Color Code are alternatives for colour representation via graphic and tactile mediums. From pilot tests, the application, usage and impact of these systems on society and education have been investigated via field research and interviews with their creators, developers and users.

Abstract:
AbstractScholarly publishing and its procedures have evolved rapidly, forcefully, and incredibly. Technical advances in the production and promotion of science content have dramatically augmented the visibility and reach, deepened the impact and intensified the thrust of science journal content. These changes range from checking text on perforated tapes to pit stop; from hot metal types to CTP; and from Gutenberg to colour digital printers. Intrinsic and inextricable to this revolutionary aspect of evolution in scholarly publishing is the evolution of library services in astronomy which catapulted library resources from preprints on shelves to customised digital repositories and from communicating observational data through postal telegrams to Tablets. What impact does this unique blend of revolutionary advances have on science and society, what are the consequent challenges, and what are the opportunities that can metamorphose from challenges inherent in the power and potential of the ‘published word’?The perspectives expressed in this paper stem from learning experiences of the authors at the Indian Academy of Sciences, publishers of ten science journals including the Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy, and at the Raman Research Institute Library (in which Astronomy is one of the core subjects for research)

Abstract:
The Warburg Dance Movement Library is a validated set of 234 video clips of dance movements for empirical research in the fields of cognitive science and neuroscience of action perception, affect perception and neuroaesthetics. The library contains two categories of video clips of dance movement sequences. Of each pair, one version of the movement sequence is emotionally expressive (Clip a), while the other version of the same sequence (Clip b) is not expressive but as technically correct as the expressive version (Clip a). We sought to complement previous dance video stimuli libraries. Facial information, colour and music have been removed, and each clip has been faded in and out. We equalised stimulus length (6 seconds, 8 counts in dance theory), the dancers’ clothing and video background and included both male and female dancers, and we controlled for technical correctness of movement execution. The Warburg Dance Movement Library contains both contemporary and ballet movements. Two online surveys ( N = 160) confirmed the classification into the two categories of expressivity. Four additional online surveys ( N = 80) provided beauty and liking ratings for each clip. A correlation matrix illustrates all variables of this norming study (technical correctness, expressivity, beauty, liking, luminance, motion energy).

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In recent years, some extremely red brown dwarfs have been discovered. They were believed to have a low surface gravity, but many of their spectral characteristics are similar to those of high-surface-gravity brown dwarfs, showing that the spectral characteristics of young brown dwarfs are poorly understood. We aim to test surface-gravity indicators in late-M and early-L brown dwarf spectra using data obtained with the X-shooter spectrograph at the Very Large Telescope. We select a benchmark sample of brown dwarf members of Chamaeleon I (∼2 Myr), Upper Scorpius (5−10 Myr), the Pleiades (132 ± 27 Myr) and Praesepe (590−790 Myr) with well-constrained ages and similar metallicities. We provide a consistent spectral classification of the sample in the optical and in the near-infrared. We measure the equivalent widths of their alkali lines, finding that they have a moderate correlation with age, especially for objects with spectral types M8 and later. We use spectral indices defined in the literature to estimate surface gravity, finding that their gravity assignment is accurate for 75 per cent of our sample. We investigate the correlation between red colour and age, finding that after ∼10 Myr, the colour does not change significantly for our sample with spectral types M6.0–L3.0. In this case, the red colours might be associated with circumstellar discs, ring structures, extinction, or viewing angle. Finally, we calculate the bolometric luminosity, and J and K bolometric corrections for our sample. We find that six objects are overluminous compared with other members of the same association. These objects are flagged as binary candidates by the Gaia survey.

Abstract:
Colour and lighting play important and unique roles in the way people enjoy environment or spaces. There is a constant interaction between people and the colours that surround them which not only affects the way they move around within the space but also determines how safe, secure and confident they feel when doing so. In addition, colour can help people determine which route to take, and what potential hazards or obstacles they may encounter. Lighting plays an important role in how different colours and combinations of colours are seen and experienced. Whilst this is true for all users, for people with sensory impairments, being able to navigate and to identify features is critical to their ability to use an environment or space without undue effort, in safely, with confidence and, wherever possible, independently. For partially sighted people, maximising the effectiveness of their residual vision through the use of environmental factors such as visual contrast and lighting can also have a major impact on their sense of well-being and on their ability to make decisions about how to use the environments they encounter. In considering the light reflected from a colour – known as its light reflectance value (LRV) – it is possible to specify levels of visual contrast that are appropriate to meet the needs of many partially sighted people. Linking this to an understanding of the search and navigation strategies they adopt when using buildings and space means it is also possible to create interesting and innovative designs and decoration schemes that assist partially sighted people without creating environments that are unacceptable to other users.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to build a database of digital Chinese painting images and use the proposed technique to extract image and texture information, and search images similar to the query image based on colour histogram and texture features in the database. Thus, retrieving images by this image technique is expected to make the retrieval of Chinese painting images more precise and convenient for users. Design/methodology/approach In this study, a technique is proposed that considers spatial information of colours in addition to texture feature in image retrieval. This technique can be applied to retrieval of Chinese painting images. A database of 1,200 digital Chinese painting images in three categories was built, including landscape, flower and figure. The authors develop an image-retrieval technique that considers colour distribution, spatial information of colours and texture. Findings In this study, a database of 1,200 digital Chinese painting images in three categories was built, including landscape, flower and figure. An image-retrieval technique was developed that considers colour distribution, spatial information of colours and texture. Through adjustment of feature values, this technique is able to process both landscape and portrait images. This technique also addresses liubai (i.e. blank) and text problems in the images. The experimental results confirm high precision rate of the proposed retrieval technique. Originality/value In this paper, a novel Chinese painting image-retrieval technique is proposed. Existing image-retrieval techniques and the features of Chinese painting are used to retrieve Chinese painting images. The proposed technique can exclude less important image information in Chinese painting images for instance liubai and calligraphy while calculating the feature values in them. The experimental results confirm that the proposed technique delivers a retrieval precision rate as high as 92 per cent and does not require a considerable computing power for feature extraction. This technique can be applied to Web page image retrieval or to other mobile applications.

Abstract:
This study explores the reasons why colour words and emotion words are frequently associated in the different languages of the world. One of them is connotative overlap between the colour term and the emotion term. A new experimental methodology, the Implicit Association Test (IAT), is used to investigate the implicit connotative structure of the Peninsular Spanish colour terms rojo (red), azul (blue), verde (green) and amarillo (yellow) in terms of Osgood’s universal semantic dimensions: Evaluation (good—bad), Activity (excited—relaxed) and Potency (strong—weak). The results show a connotative profile compatible with the previous literature, except for the valence (good—bad) of some of the colour terms, which is reversed. We suggest reasons for both these similarities and differences with previous studies and propose further research to test these implicit connotations and their effect on the association of colour with emotion words.

Abstract:
A Cochrane review conducted a meta-analysis looking only at FOBT for colorectal cancer screening. This review, based on published and unpublished data from 5 controlled trials, demonstrated that 3-card home FOBT conferred a reduction in colorectal cancer mortality of 16% (relative risk [RR]=0.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.77-0.92) and a number needed to screen of 1173 (95% CI, 741-2807) to prevent 1 death from colon cancer over a 10-year period. If adjusted for adherence to screening, the reduction in mortality increased to 23% (RR=0.77; 95% CI, 0.57-0.89). In addition, long-term follow up of one of the RCTs in the review showed a continued reduction in colorectal cancer mortality of 34% (RR=0.66; 95% CI, 0.54-0.81) in subjects adhering to the FOBT screening protocol over a 13-year interval. Overall mortality did not differ between the screened and unscreened groups. A systematic review performed for the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) incorporated more recent data on colorectal cancer screening including colonoscopy. This review reached similar conclusions as above. This review also looked at office FOBT performed after digital rectal exam. It is important to note that a single office FOBT has a lower sensitivity than 3-card home FOBT and its effectiveness for reducing colorectal cancer mortality was unknown at the time of the systematic review. A subsequent 2005 Veterans Affairs prospective cohort study found that the sensitivity for detecting advanced neoplasia was only 4.9% for digital FOBT, and negative results did not decrease the likelihood of advanced neoplasia. The USPSTF review did not find any screening trials of colonoscopy but analyzed data from the National Polyp Study and a case-control study to draw its conclusions. The review reported an odds ratio for colorectal cancer mortality for patients who had colonoscopy to be 0.43 (95% CI, 0.30-63). The USPSTF review also looked at the sensitivity and adverse effects of FOBT compared to colonoscopy. One-time 3-card home FOBT had a sensitivity of 30% to 40% for detecting cancer. The sensitivity of one-time colonoscopy was difficult to determine since it was the criterion standard examination, but it was estimated to be greater than 90%, with a risk of perforation of 1/2000. The USPSTF review found both screening strategies cost-effective (<$30,000 per additional life-year gained) compared to no screening. FOBT had a cost per life-year saved of $5691 to $17,805 compared with $9038 to $22,012 for colonoscopy performed every 10 years.

Abstract:
Human visual system has a mechanism which ensures that the perceived colour of an object remains almost constant under varying illumination conditions, and this mechanism is called colour constancy. Electronic imaging systems such as digital cameras do not naturally have this ability. The color appearance of images of an object under different lighting conditions changes with the colour of the light sources and this can cause problems in many computer vision applications such as object recognition. To deal with this problem, many algorithms have been developed to estimate the input image’s illuminant, and then recover the intrinsic colour of the scene correctly. In this thesis, we focus on this topic, try to produce new colour constancy algorithms in both images and videos, to improve the performance of the state of the art. This thesis makes four technical contributions. First, we have developed a new image representation scheme suitable for developing learning based colour constancy algorithms; second, we introduce a new method that formulates the colour constancy problem as one that infers the illuminant class of the input image; third, we introduce a novel clustering classification colour constancy framework (the 4C method); and finally, we extend our method from still image into video processing, create a new framework to deal with the colour constancy problem in videos. As in many computer vision problems, one of the crucial issues is how to effectively represent the input events. Colour constancy is no exception and we need to first represent the input image. As we are only interested in the colours of the image, colour histogram is a natural choice. However, traditional colour histogram is content dependent. As our task is estimating the colours of the illuminant rather than the colours of the image, we need a representation that is relatively independent of the image content. Based on this reasoning, we introduce the novel concept of a binary colour histogram where it records if a colour has appeared in the image or not and disregards the frequency of the colours appear in the image. We will present experimental results to demonstrate that our new binary histogram representation is particularly suitable for learning based colour constancy and that it provides better performances than other traditional representation schemes. The colour of a digital image is directly affected by the colour of the illuminant. We reason if we can recognize or classify the illuminant source of the image, we can then correct the colour of the image. Based on this rationale, we formulate the colour constancy problem as an illuminant classification problem. We assume that each image has an associated class of illuminant and the task of colour constancy is that of recognizing the illuminant class of the image. To accomplish this, we make use of our newly introduced binary colour histogram representation scheme and employ a powerful machine learning method called the Random Forest to construct the illuminant recognition system. We will present experimental results to show the effectiveness of our new method. Encouraged by the success of our illuminant recognition framework, we have developed a novel clustering classification colour constancy (the 4C) framework. We reason that similar illuminants will result in similar white point colours in an image. Based on this assumption, we first use a clustering algorithm to group similar white point colours of the training samples into the same cluster. We then treat the images in the same cluster as belonging to the same illumination source and each cluster as one class of illuminants. The colour constancy problem, i.e., that of estimating the unknown illuminant of an image, becomes that of identifying which illuminant class (cluster) the image’s illuminant falling into. We again make use of our novel binary colour histogram representation and our random forest based illuminant classification methods to implement our new 4C colour constancy framework. We present experimental results on publicly available testing datasets and show that our new method is competitive to state of the art. As a practical application, we have successfully extended our novel colour constancy methods from still image into video processing. The video tonal stabilization problem is still an unsolved problem, and current algorithms are only focusing on keeping the tonal stable during video playing, not really trying to recover the incorrect illuminant. We tackle these two problems together by keeping the tonal stable and recovering the frame colour to a canonical illuminant. Our approach first divides video frames into shots containing similar illuminant characteristics. We then correct the frames in the same scene by using the Random Forest illuminant estimation framework. A smooth function is applied to prevent flick and flash from occurring at the boundary of the neighboring scenes. Experimental results show that our new methods can improve video quality effectively.

Abstract:
This thesis documents research undertaken into the design and evaluation of a computer tool (Colour Concept Generator) to produce colour schemes for products from verbal descriptors depicting a required aesthetic image or style. The system was designed to translate between descriptive words and colour combinations and aims to provide a form of ideas stimulus for a product designer at the initial stages of the design process. The computer system uses elements of artificial intelligence (AI) to `learn' colour and descriptor semiotic relations from a product designer based upon a proposed objective criteria or to reflect a designers personal style. Colour concepts for products can then be generated from descriptors based upon these semiotic relations. The philosophy of the research is based upon the idea of computing colour aesthetics at the front end of the design process and the design of an Al software mechanism to facilitate this. The problem was analysed with respect to the available literature on colour and a set of detail requirements for the system were presented. The system was then designed and code based upon the requirements and evaluated in terms of the overall philosophy, system methodology and application of computer media. The research is a contribution to the field of computer aided design regarding colour aesthetics and demonstrates the possibility of using an artificial intelligent machine to inspire and stimulate creative human thought. The Al software mechanism of the Colour Concept Generator is presented as an application of Al to aesthetic design. 11

Abstract:
Mathematical morphology was first applied to binary images and readily extended to grey-level images. In extending mathematical morphology to colour it is difficult to define a suitable unambiguous ordering. We present two complete ordering schemes based on colour difference and similarity ordering for colour morphology. A novel colour difference formula is first introduced. This colour difference formula is based on colour extrema derived from a simple physical model of image formation and avoids the more arbitrary mathematical and perceptual definitions previously reported. Moreover, we define similarity criteria as the basis for mathematical morphology that can be used with flat and non-flat structuring elements. The proposed orderings meet the properties of mathematical morphology, and provide a harmonised approach for binary, grey-level and colour morphology. A comparison of ordering schemes for dilation, erosion, opening, closing and filtering operator shows the colour difference-based ordering presented here to be at least as good as other ordering schemes and better than some of the well principled, previously reported methods in not generating artefacts and reducing image noise. Additionally, the development of a similarity-based ordering to perform morphological gradient and Hit-or-Miss transforms for colour images is presented.

Abstract:
The development of a scientific theory of colour and of standardized colour ranges by a small group of modernist architects is a fascinating but Little-known episode of post-war British architectural history. In many articles, official publications, and conferences, and from within key organizations of the building industry, these architects promoted a theory of colour selection and application based on seemingly 'functional' and 'rational' criteria such as the 'aesthetic of the structure', the character of the building and its occupants, and the improvement of lighting and vision. Architects were also concerned with the standardization of colour, leading, from 1955 until the late 1970s, to farchitectural' ranges responding to 'functional' needs being published as official British Standards. Cotour in modern architecture has only recently become the subject of critical historical studies. Its belated reassessment by historians is, in part-, related to modernism's own rejection of cotour, which was seen to belong to the transient and decadent phenomena of decoration and fashion. Yet, many modernist architects persisted in thinking about and applying colour in their buildings. This thesis explores some of the different and complex meanings of colour as well as the ambivalent role of science in post-war British architecture. It shows that the scientization and standardization of colour after the war was in part an attempt by architects to maintain and make I acceptable a new decorative theory and practice of colour in face of the dominant ideology of science promoted by the Welfare State, and of the modernist hostility to decoration. It shows that colour was then such an attractive subject for architects because it allowed them to appear as scientific experts but at the same time, retain control over architectural practice by asserting the primacy of their mysterious aesthetic abilities.

Abstract:

The environment in which higher education institutions are situated has been impacted by a number of disruptive forces since the early 1990s, including acceleration in the capability of information technology (Beagle, 2006; Bennett, 2003; Foster, 2014), changing attitudes about learning pedagogy (Barr & Tagg, 1995), and calls for accountability from government and the public (Appleton, Stevenson, & Boden, 2011; Forrest & Bostick, 2013). Innovative leaders in academic librarianship have been empowered by their institutions to lead efforts to create transformative library learning spaces that can effectively leverage the opportunities presented through these disruptions to aid the institution in meeting its goals, now and in the future.

The theoretical framework for this study was grounded in planned (Lewin, 1951) and emergent change (Bess & Dee, 2012; Burnes, 2004, Leslie, 1996) theories, which are both needed to foster sustainable and transformative outcomes (Mossop, 2013). The following research question guided this study:

How do organizational leaders experience engagement with stakeholders during the creation of library learning spaces, from visioning through planning, implementation and evaluation?

This basic, interpretive, qualitative study employed individual, semi-structured interviews with (N=11) library leaders who possessed primary responsibility for leading others to facilitate creation of library learning spaces at their institution. Projects serving as subjects for the study were completed between 2011 and 2016. Leader subjects were identified through intentional and emergent sampling. Themes were inductively identified through open and axial coding methods (Merriam & Tisdell, 2016). Artifacts related to the library space projects were analyzed to corroborate findings. Elite interviews with (N2) professionals from varied backgrounds who have expert knowledge on library learning space design were implemented to integrate additional perspectives into findings.

Five principal findings were identified that framed the process of leadership engagement through a library space project: 1) Input: Leadership Characteristics & Project Ignition; 2) Project Drivers: Institutional Authority, Mission, & Needs; 3) Building on Relational Capital; 4) Persistence through Planned Change; and 5) Maintaining Sustainable Spaces. This study may contribute a greater understanding of leadership requirements for library space design projects, as well as identify activities associated with project success.

Abstract:
Robotics is a science, which aims at controlling mechanical systems through electrical systems and computer techniques. Robotics has a high rate of applicability but, in order to make it easier to comprehend when it comes to learning processes, methodologies that enhance the student's performance and learning curve, like the project-based learning method, are indispensable. The project-based learning technique diverges from the conventional approach, as it makes the many students the object itself of their learning development, by giving them the power of choice and major control over the entire process. This article aims at presenting the project developed by students from the “Robotics and Its Elements” class ministered at Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto - UFOP. The project dealt with concepts, approaches, explanations, and techniques that created a robot-cell (Melfa RV-2AJ and its peripherals) which used the ROS framework system alongside computer vision resources. The robot, after its completion, was able to perform repetitive tasks such as the detection and gathering of specific physical elements – it can manipulate them properly. To make those tasks possible, a Kinect camera was used to obtain data such as the depth and location of the elements which were in the robot's range of grasp. In addition, a detection mechanism derived from the combination of an open source graphic library called OpenCV with the usage of the HSV color system was an important accessory, so that color calibration and orientation addressed properly. Finally, the designated framework (ROS) suited to establish a connection between the robot and its whole operational environment, in order to make the data-sharing and input signal both able to work over the robot's mobility.

Abstract:
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms. The respiratory symptoms of patients with acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) worsen rapidly. At present, traditional western medicine treatment can not effectively alleviate the symptoms and attack frequency of patients. Suzi Jiangqi decoction(SZJQ) has a good clinical effect in the treatment of AECOPD. Due to the lack of evidence-based medicine, it can not provide an effective systematic evaluation for the treatment of AECOPD with Suzi Jiangqi decoction. Therefore, it is necessary to provide high-quality evidence evaluation for the clinical efficacy and safety of Suzi Jiangqi Decoction in the treatment of AECOPD. Methods: Two researchers independently retrieved randomized controlled trial (RCT) and quasi-RCTs of SZJQ in the treatment of AECOPD from databases including PubMed, Web of science, the Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, Sinomed, VIP and WanFang.The included studies were evaluated for quality according to the RCT quality assessment method provided by Cochrane Reviewer's Handbook 5.3.Review Manager 5.3 software provided by the Cochrane collaboration was used for meta-analysis. Results: This study will provide systematic review on the efficacy and safety of SZJQ as adjuvant therapy in patients with AECOPD by rigorous quality assessment and reasonable data synthesis. Conclusions: This systematic review will provide the good evidence currently on SZJQ as adjuvant therapy in patients with AECOPD.
