Abstract:
This thesis presents the author's musical compositions through the elucidation of their source impulse. In order to facilitate the unveiling of the works presented in this thesis I have subdivided it into sections thus: Section 1 - Here I introduce the reader to the motivation behind my music composition work and discuss the elements which inform my cosmology through the elucidation of the concepts and methods used in the realisation of the compositions. Section 2 - An introduction, discussion and conclusion to the series heading of Raza. The compositions and chapters are as follows: Chapter 3, Lucero for charango and tape; Chapter 4, Gato's Raid for marimba and tape; Chapter 6, De Luna a Luna ... for two percussionists and tape. In this section I address that particular musical imagery which is directly related to my cultural roots. Section 3 - An introduction, discussion and conclusion to the series heading of Urbis. The compositions and chapters are as follows: Chapter 9, Urbis #2 'passing moments/riffs & raffs' for bass clarinet and tape; Chapter 10, Urbis #3 'Alter ego' for electric guitar, live electronics and tape; Chapter 11, Urbis #4 for tape. In this section I address the use of modern urban culture symbols in order to create a contemporary mythological canon. Section 4 - A conclusion to this thesis.

Abstract:
Composition is a process of applied research. In a portfolio of eight original pieces, the technical and aesthetic components of this process are investigated from the perspective of several theoretical precepts which both inform and underpin its creative strategy. Drawing on theories of intertextuality, composition is collocated within a broad current of thought in which ideas and material from pre-existing ‘texts’ across a variety of disciplines are utilised and explored to create new compositional ‘texts’. This procedure is tested from several, key perspectives, characterised variously as: (i) problem-seeking, (ii) serendipitous, (iii) transgressive, and (iv) transcriptive. The first of these draws on John Dewey’s notions of art as a form of creative problematisation. In the second, techniques are developed in which performance flexibility is balanced against structural exactitude, aided by a series of parametric tables that outline a range of variables across the different elements of musical sound. As a transgressive process, compositional procedure is informed by Viktor Shklovsky’s theory of aesthetic defamiliarisation. Finally, as a form of transcription, the research draws on Ferruccio Busoni’s observations about notation and its key transmutational role in manipulating and recasting musical ideas. By adopting an eclectic attitude towards materials and techniques, a compositional strategy is formulated which offers an alternative to the assumption that advancement in the field is inevitably shaped by an ineluctable, dialectical process. A polyvalent approach and direct interaction with materials, it is argued, are the important creative ingredients which present valuable and meaningful developments in compositional language, form and technique.

Abstract:
In this dissertation, we analyze Kolmogorov's superposition theorem for high dimensions. Our main goal is to explore and demonstrate the feasibility of an accurate implementation of Kolmogorov's theorem. First, based on Lorentz's ideas, we provide a thorough discussion on the proof and its numerical implementation of the theorem in dimension two. We present computational experiments which prove the feasibility of the theorem in applications of low dimensions (namely, dimensions two and three). Next, we present high dimensional extensions with complete and detailed proofs and provide the implementation that aims at applications with high dimensionality. The amalgamation of these ideas is evidenced by applications in image (two dimensional) and video (three dimensional) representations, the content based image retrieval, video retrieval, de-noising and in-painting, and Bayesian prior estimation of high dimensional data from the fields of computer vision and image processing.

Abstract:
Les systèmes usuels proposent à l'utilisateur de sélectionner une image ou une région requête soit tirée de la base soit issue d'une collection externe. Nous nous sommes penchés sur le cas où l'exemple n'existe pas ou n'est pas approprié à l'image mentale que se fait l'utilisateur d'une cible donnée. Le paradigme du Thésaurus Visuel permet de générer des catégories de régions segmentées dont les représentants sont proposés comme une page zéro à l'utilisateur pour composer sa requête mentale en sélectionnant les patchs visuels à sa guise. Nous nous sommes intéressés dans ce travail à la génération des résumés visuels des bases d'images selon la complexité des régions et suivant les schémas de descriptions associés. La segmentation grossière des images génère des composantes visuelles dont la description par des attributs photométriques globaux tels que des distributions de couleurs quantifiées ne permet pas d'englober toute l'information photométrique sous-jacente. Les descripteurs locaux extraits autour des points d'intérêt de Harris complètent le schéma de description global et infèrent une robustesse à la catégorisation des régions. Cette dernière fait appel à des algorithmes de compétition agglomérative et d'autres relationnels couplés à des mesures de similarité non-traditionnelles pour obtenir des catégories de régions visuellement et structurellement cohérentes. Cette nouvelle approche est exploitée pour la composition logique et spatiale des patchs pour satisfaire la requête mentale de l'utilisateur. Les items de la page zéro sont les représentants des catégories de régions dont l'orientation spatiale relative est décrite au moyen d'un histogramme angulaire pondéré qui s'adapte à la régularité et à la distribution des pixels dans la région. Les requêtes se décomposent en une partie logique et une autre spatiale dont les résultats sont retournés en utilisant des tables d'associations et des intersections d'histogrammes respectivement
The choice of the starting example is an important issue for content-based image retrieval approaches. Usual systems suggest to the user to look for images similar to the one he selected either among the database itself or from an external image collection; the results are retrieved according to specific metrics suitable with extracted descriptors. In this work, we investigated the case of a missing or at least inappropriate starting example and hence the need of mental image composition in order to initiate the search process. To do so, the paradigm of Visual Thesaurus stands for a visual summary of all regions of the database, these segmented regions are clustered into coherent categories from which we select the representatives to compose the initial "page zero". Our interest was oriented toward the construction of a reliable visual thesaurus that meets the requirements of coarse segmentation and wide variability in region's photometric and structural complexity. Global attributes are suitable to likely homogenous regions whereas fine local descriptors through Harris points of interest infer robustness and visual coherence to the categorization step. The clustering requires, on the one hand, fuzzy agglomerative algorithms but also, in case of textured patterns, relational dual formulation depending mainly on the dimension of the description space. The objective of our work is to provide an alternative to starting example by composing the mental query through the arrangement of the visual patches selected from the Visual Thesaurus. Pairs of regions are described by a weighted angular spatial histogram to determine the orientation between an argument region and a referent one. Accordingly, both logical and spatial compositions are involved; returned results rely on inverted files indexation and histogram intersection metrics respectively

Resumo: Antes tomadas como naturalmente genuínas, fotografias não mais podem ser consideradas como sinônimo de verdade. Com os avanços nas técnicas de processamento de imagens e computação gráfica, manipular imagens tornou-se mais fácil do que nunca, permitindo que pessoas sejam capazes de criar novas realidades em minutos. Infelizmente, tais modificações, na maioria das vezes, têm como objetivo enganar os observadores, mudar opiniões ou ainda, afetar como as pessoas enxergam a realidade. Assim, torna-se imprescindível o desenvolvimento de técnicas de detecção de falsificações eficientes e eficazes. De todos os tipos de falsificações de imagens, composições são de especial interesse. Esse tipo de falsificação usa partes de duas ou mais imagens para construir uma nova realidade exibindo para o observador situações que nunca aconteceram. Entre todos os diferentes tipos de pistas investigadas para detecção de composições, as abordagens baseadas em inconsistências de iluminação são consideradas as mais promissoras uma vez que um ajuste perfeito de iluminação em uma imagem falsificada é extremamente difícil de ser alcançado. Neste contexto, esta tese, a qual é fundamentada na hipótese de que inconsistências de iluminação encontradas em uma imagem são fortes evidências de que a mesma é produto de uma composição, apresenta abordagens originais e eficazes para detecção de imagens falsificadas. O primeiro método apresentado explora o reflexo da luz nos olhos para estimar as posições da fonte de luz e do observador da cena. A segunda e a terceira abordagens apresentadas exploram um fenômeno, que ocorre com as cores, denominado metamerismo, o qual descreve o fato de que duas cores podem aparentar similaridade quando iluminadas por uma fonte de luz mas podem parecer totalmente diferentes quando iluminadas por outra fonte de luz. Por fim, nossa última abordagem baseia-se na interação com o usuário que deve inserir normais 3-D em objetos suspeitos da imagem de modo a permitir um cálculo mais preciso da posição 3-D da fonte de luz na imagem. Juntas, essas quatro abordagens trazem importantes contribuições para a comunidade forense e certamente serão uma poderosa ferramenta contra falsificações de imagens
Abstract: Once taken for granted as genuine, photographs are no longer considered as a piece of truth. With the advance of digital image processing and computer graphics techniques, it has been easier than ever to manipulate images and forge new realities within minutes. Unfortunately, most of the times, these modifications seek to deceive viewers, change opinions or even affect how people perceive reality. Therefore, it is paramount to devise and deploy efficient and effective detection techniques. From all types of image forgeries, composition images are specially interesting. This type of forgery uses parts of two or more images to construct a new reality from scenes that never happened. Among all different telltales investigated for detecting image compositions, image-illumination inconsistencies are considered the most promising since a perfect light matching in a forged image is still difficult to achieve. This thesis builds upon the hypothesis that image illumination inconsistencies are strong and powerful evidence of image composition and presents four original and effective approaches to detect image forgeries. The first method explores eye specular highlight telltales to estimate the light source and viewer positions in an image. The second and third approaches explore metamerism, when the colors of two objects may appear to match under one light source but appear completely different under another one. Finally, the last approach relies on user¿s interaction to specify 3-D normals of suspect objects in an image from which the 3-D light source position can be estimated. Together, these approaches bring to the forensic community important contributions which certainly will be a strong tool against image forgeries

Abstract:
The aim of this research was to determine ethnic and cultural influences on body composition, lifestyle, and aspects of body image (perception, acceptability, and satisfaction) of younger (age 18-40 years) Australian and Japanese males, the latter including groups living in Australia and Japan. The sample sizes of the three groups were 68 Japanese living in Australia, 84 Japanese living in Japan, and 72 Australian Caucasian males respectively. The methodology included body composition assessments (by anthropometry and DXA), lifestyle and body image questionnaires, and dietary records. The study found significant p<0.05) ethnic differences in the %BF at given BMI levels and for Japanese the BMI values of 23.6kg/m2 and 28.6kg/m2 were found to be equivalent to 25 and 30 for Caucasians when used to classify individuals as "overweight" and "obese". Equations in common use for the calculation of body composition in Japanese males were evaluated using modern methods of body composition assessment and found to need considerable modification. New regression equations that represent BMI-%BF relationships for Japanese and Australians were proposed: Japanese: Log %BF = -1.330 + 1.896(log BMI), (R2 = 0.547, SEE = 0.09); Australians: Log %BF = -1.522 + 2.001(log BMI), (R2 = 0.544, SEE = 0.10). Equations were also developed to predict %BF for Japanese and Australian males from body composition assessments using anthropometry and DXA: Japanese: %BF = 0.376 + 0.402(abdominal) + 0.772(medial calf) + 0.217(age), (R2 = 0.786, SEE = 2.69); Australians: %BF = 2.184 + 0.392(medial calf) + 0.678(supraspinale) + 0.467(triceps), (R2 = 0.864, SEE = 2.37). Lifestyle factors were found to influence perceptions of body image.
Australian males participate in physical activity more frequently than their Japanese counterparts (Australians = 98.6% involved in vigorous activity at least once per week, Japanese living in Japan = 85.7%, Japanese living in Australia = 72.1%). Significant differences p<0.05) in energy contribution patterns were found between the Japanese group (Protein: 14.4%, Carbohydrate: 50.4%, Fat: 28.1%) and Japanese living in Australia (JA: Protein: 16.3%, Carbohydrate: 47.3%, Fat: 32.3%) and the Australians (Protein: 17.1%, Carbohydrate: 47.9%, Fat: 30.6%). This shows that the Japanese living in Australia have adopted a more westemised diet than those living in Japan. Body Image assessments were done on all study groups using the Somatomorphic Matrix (SM) computer program and questionnaires, including the Ben-Tovim Walker Body Attitudes Questionnaires, (BAQ) the Attention to the Body Shape Scale (ABS), and the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT). Japanese males tended to overestimate their weight and amount of body fat, while Australian Caucasian males underestimated these parameters. The Japanese groups had higher scores on the selfdisparagement subscale and lower scores on the strengths and the attractiveness subscales of the BAQ questionnaire than Australian males. Australian males also had higher scores on the EAT total score and the dieting subscale of the EAT questionnaire than Japanese males. When all groups of subjects selected their perceived body image from the SM program menu, these results had no relationship with measured body composition values, suggesting that further development of this program is needed for use in these populations.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation focuses on text-image conceptual models for literary interpretation and composition in the digital age. The models investigate an interactive blend of textually-based linear-sequential approaches and visually-based spatial-simultaneous approaches. The models employ Gestalt-inspired figure-ground segregation models, along with other theoretical models, that demonstrate the dynamic capabilities of images as conceptual tools as well as alternate forms of text. The models encourage an interpretative style with active participants in open-ended, multi-sensory meaning-making processes. The models use the flexible tools of modern technology as approaches to meaning-making with art strategies used for research strategies as well as a means to appreciate reading and writing in the context of an increasingly visual environment.

Abstract:
While machine perfusion of explanted kidneys is theoretically superior to standard cold storage, it may damage potential transplants unless machine-associated swelling is controlled. This thesis presents the effects of perfusate tonicity on renal swelling during hypothermic machine perfusion. Phosphate buffered solution (PBS) and PBS supplemented with 5% w/v mannitol were used as isotonic (289 mOsm/kg) and hypertonic (568 mOsm/kg) perfusates, respectively. Porcine kidney pairs were procured then flushed and machine perfused; the right and left kidneys were assigned opposite perfusates. An experimental methodology was developed to image porcine kidneys undergoing hypothermic machine perfusion (5 deg C) for 15 minutes followed by 120 minutes without perfusion to quantify surface displacement (renal swelling) with digital image correlation (DIC). Surface displacement and size (thickness) were compared between the right and left kidneys of each pair. In addition, discharged renal fluids (i.e., filtrate and venous outflow) and biopsies were collected. On average, kidneys perfused with the mannitol solution were smaller in size than the kidneys perfused with PBS (p < 0.05) at the start and end of each experiment; however, there was no significant difference between the renal sizes at the end of the 15 minute perfusion interval (p > 0.05). Thus, hypertonic and isotonic perfusates yielded different renal swelling outcomes (i.e., physical size and surface displacement), which suggests that perfusate tonicity influences renal swelling. These experiments are the first time ex vivo renal surface displacement measurements have been collected during machine perfusion.

Tendo em vista a série de três volumes O Fotógrafo: uma História no Afeganistão, de Didier Lefèvre, Emmanuel Guibert e Fredéric Lemercier, este trabalho visa identificar efeitos de sentido resultantes da intersecção da fotografia e do desenho na obra por meio de estratégias de composição imagética. A pesquisa justifica-se pela manifestação de hibridismo imagético presente, no que se refere ao uso da linguagem dos quadrinhos e da fotografia, duas modalidades de imagem intercaladas no âmbito da constituição da narrativa. Para tanto, são nossos objetivos observar como o relacionamento entre desenho e fotografia se dá no ambiente imagético da linguagem dos quadrinhos e como ele se desenvolve e se concretiza na obra, buscando identificar em que momentos o quadrinho ou a fotografia assumem a frente, de que forma a utilização da linguagem é feita ao longo da narrativa e como as características intrínsecas de cada uma dessas linguagens influencia na obra como um todo. Para isso, realizamos uma pesquisa quantitativa-qualitativa, de modo a detalhar e pormenorizar as características dos fenômenos presentes e pertinentes à obra, utilizando as variáveis quantificadas, obtidas a partir da observação detalhada da obra, para proceder à análise do conteúdo. Esta, por sua vez, utiliza elementos da composição imagética para formação de suas categorias. A partir disso, é possível observar que as relações articuladas entre fotografia e desenho possuem grande complexidade e apresentam uma gama de nuances e variáveis de interação que engendram uma gama de significados sobrepostos em camadas inter-relacionadas. Fotografia e desenho se intercalam no seio da estrutura sequencial dos quadrinhos e o resultado dessa relação torna possível concluir que, juntas, estas estruturas propiciam novas leituras e efeitos de sentido que as respectivas linguagens, separadamente, não alcançariam.
In view of the book The Photographer, by Lefèvre, Guibert and Lemercier, this dissertation aims to analyze and establish the discursive strategies in the intersection of photography and drawing in this graphic novel. The research is relevant to the extent that this work offers certain innovations both in the use of the language of comics, and of photography itself within the framework of the constitution of narrative and discourse. To do so, we have as main objectives to understand how the relationship between the language of comics and photography develops and is concretized in the work, in which moments the comic or photography assume the primacy, how the use of language is made throughout of the narrative and how the intrinsic characteristics of each of these languages influence the work as a whole. For this, there has been performed a quantitative-qualitative research, in order to detail and detail the characteristics of the phenomena present and pertinent to the work, using the quantified variables, obtained from the detailed observation of the work, to proceed to content analysis and analysis of the composition. From this, it might be observed that the articulated relations between photography and drawing have great complexity and present a range of nuances and interaction variables that engender a range of hierarchically superimposed meanings in interrelated layers. In some moments, it is the photography that overlaps, in others, the drawings, but all these relations make it possible to conclude that, together, these structures provide new readings and meanings that the respective languages, separately, would not do.

Abstract:
O presente memorial apresenta uma reflexão teórica sobre a utilização da imagem como ponto de partida da organização estrutural e formal do processo composicional. A primeira parte apresenta as referências musicais e as motivações estéticas com as quais dialogo e que impactaram minha composição. A segunda parte consiste em um referente teórico, o qual se centra na análise da importância da imagem nos processos criativos, citando autores como Salles (2011) e Ostrower (2013); por outra parte, sintetiza casos de compositores cujos processos criativos foram mediados pela imagem e empregaram possibilidades de utilização da imagem como orientadora ao longo do percurso criativo. Finalmente, apresento as composições: Fantasia Bolerosa (2012), Quya-Killa (2012), Um Olhar no passado (2013), objeto principal de reflexão e análise, sob os conceitos de repetição e reiteração, Ferraz (1998). O resultado deste trabalho demonstra que a utilização da imagem é uma ferramenta que pode complementar a metodologia composicional na criação de peças como as que integram este memorial de composição.
The memorial gift provides a theoretical reflection on the use of the image as a starting point in the structural organization and the formal compositional process. The first part presents the musical references and aesthetic motivations with which dialogue and that somehow influenced my composition. The second part consists of a theoretical framework which focuses on analyzing the importance of image in creative processes, citing authors such as Salles (2011) and Ostrower (2013), for other instances synthesizes part of composers, whose processes were mediated by creative image and who employed possibilities of using image as a guideline along the creative path. Finally I present the compositions: Fantasia Bolerosa (2012), Quya- Killa (2012), Um Olhar no passado (2013), the main object of reflection and analysis. The result of this study shows that the use of the image is a tool that can complement the compositional methodology in creating pieces as that integrate this memorial composition.

Abstract:

The physical properties of the coarse fraction of the till (0.4 to 20 cm) and the surface boulders have been studied at two different sites in Sweden. The research work included: development of a new image analysis software for 3D size and shape measurements of particles; lithological analysis on multiple size fractions in till and magnetic susceptibility survey on coarse till clasts, surface boulders and local bedrock.

The new 3D image analysis method provides an enormous amount of size and shape data for each particle in the coarse fraction (2 to 20 cm) in till. The method is suitable for field study, cost effective and the software is executable in Matlab. The field imaging method together with the image analysis software give non subjective results of size and shape of coarse particles and makes it feasible and easy to study representative sample size, which is one tonne for testing clasts of size up to 20 cm.

The lithological analysis of the multiple size fraction of the till clasts has been investigated on six different size fractions of the till (0.4 to 20 cm); the result of the different samples from the two sites shows that this method can potentially be used as a stratigraphic tool in the areas where there is no unique indicator lithologies.

The magnetic susceptibility has been made on the surface boulders, the 6-20 cm till fraction and on insitu bedrock outcrops near to the study sites. The method has good potential for determining stratigraphic relationships between different till units as well as for determining the provenance ofcoarse clasts and surface boulders.

Abstract:
Esta tese discute o papel da Análise Forense de Imagens como reguladora de mídia digital na sociedade. Isto inclui um estudo com mais de 400 indivíduos para determinar suas capacidades de detectar edições em imagens. Os resultados desse experimento indicam que humanos são facilmente enganados por imagens digitais, tendo dificuldades em diferenciar entre imagens pristinas e editadas. A tese então analisa a efetividade do arsenal de análise forense de imagens contra o estado-da-arte de composição de imagens. Através da análise de padrões fundamentais de imagens, as técnicas forenses são capazes de detectar a presença da maioria das operações de composição testadas. A tese então apresenta uma abordagem alternativa para análise forense de imagens, baseada na geração automática de planos. Ao tratar o processo de inspeção de uma imagem como um plano composto de múltiplos passos, propusemos uma arquitetura que é capaz de indicar os passos necessários para analisar uma imagem. Os planos são baseados em uma modelagem formal do conhecimento e técnicas forenses, de modo que possam ser traduzidos em passos a serem executados. A tese então demonstra que os limites de tal abordagem dependem da dificuldade de validar tal solução. Isso é uma consequência da natureza dos problemas de análise forense de imagens: essencialmente, são problemas de confiança distribuída entre indivíduos com acesso limitado à informação. Essa configuração é analisada de diferentes perspectivas em busca dos limites práticos para a análise forense de imagens digitais. Os resultados dessa análise sugerem que a área falha em produzir soluções acessíveis para a sociedade não por limitações técnicas, mas pela falta de um engajamento multi-disciplinar. A tese então discute como paradoxos filosóficos surgem naturalmente em cenários de análise forense de imagens. A análise forense de imagens digitais lida, essencialmente, com comunicação humana e, como tal, está sujeita a todas suas complexidades. Finalmente, é argumentado que o caminho para construir soluções úteis para a sociedade requer um esforço coletivo de diferentes disciplinas do conhecimento. É responsabilidade da comunidade forense desenvolver uma teoria epistemológica comum e acessível para este projeto coletivo.
This thesis discusses the role of Digital Image Forensics as a regulator of digital media in society. This includes a perceptual study with over 400 subjects to assess their ability to notice editing in images. The results of such experiment indicate that humans are easily fooled by digital images, not being able to tell apart edited and pristine images. The thesis then analyzes the effectiveness of the available arsenal of digital image forensics technology to detect image editing performed by state-of-the-art image-compositing techniques. By analyzing fundamental image patterns, forensics techniques can effectively detect the occurrence of most types of image compositing operations. In response to these two studies, the thesis presents an alternative approach to digital image forensics, based on automated plan generation. By treating the image inspection process as a plan comprised of different steps, it proposes an architecture that is able to guide an analyst choosing the next best step for inspecting an image. The generated plans are flexible, adapting on the fly to the observed results. The plans are based on a formal modelling of current forensics knowledge and techniques, so that they can be translated in steps to be executed. The thesis then shows that the limits of such an approach lie in the difficulty to validate results, which is a consequence of the setup of forensics problems: they are problems of distributed trust among parties with limited information. This scenario is analyzed from different perspectives in search for the practical limits of Digital Image Forensics as a whole. The results of such an analysis suggest that the field is lacking in providing practical and accessible solutions to society due to limited engagement in multidisciplinary research rather than due to limited technical proficiency. The thesis then discusses how paradoxes from philosophy, mathematics, and epistemology arise naturally in both real forensics scenarios, and in the theoretical foundations of the field. Digital Image Forensics ultimately deals with human communication and, as such, it is subject to all its complexities. Finally, it is argued that the path for providing useful solutions for society requires a collective engagement from different disciplines. It is the responsibility of the forensics community to develop a common, accessible epistemological framework for this collective enterprise.
