Humans group components of visual patterns according to their colour, and perceive colours separately from shape. This property of human visual perception is the basis behind the Ishihara test for colour deficiency, where an observer is asked to detect a pattern made up of dots of similar colour with variable lightness against a background of dots made from different colour(s) and lightness. To find out if fish use colour for object segregation in a similar manner to humans, we used stimuli inspired by the Ishihara test.

We have recently shown that the Japanese yellow swallowtail butterfly Papilio xuthus uses colour vision when searching for food. In the field, these butterflies feed on nectar provided by flowers of various colours not only in direct sunlight but also in shaded places and on cloudy days, suggesting that they have colour constancy. Here, we tested this hypothesis. We trained newly emerged Papilio xuthus to feed on sucrose solution on a paper patch of a certain colour under white illumination. The butterflies were then tested under both white and coloured illumination. Under white illumination,

Abstract:
John Campbell proposed a so-called simple view of colours according to which colours are categorical properties of the surfaces of objects just as they normally appear to be. I raised an invertion problem for Campbell's view according to which the senses of colour terms fail to match their references, thus rendering those terms meaningless—or so I claimed. Gabriele de Anna defended Campbell's view against my example by contesting two points in particular. Firstly, de Anna claimed that there is no special problem here for the simple view of colours, a similar invertion story could apply to prim

ABSTRACT: Halldór Kiljan Laxness is one of the most successful and renowned authors in all of Iceland. The Nobel Laureate has written many well-known works, one of which is his early novel Salka Valka (1931-1932), a political romance that follows the life of a young girl in a remote Icelandic fishing village from age ten to age twenty-five. An interesting feature of Salka Valka is Laxness’s use of colours and colour symbolism. While Laxness employs a wide variety of basic and non-basic colour terms throughout the novel to describe various people, objects, and natural phenomena, most interestin

Abstract:
Colour and greyscale (black and white) pictures look different to us, but it is not clear whether the difference in appearance is a consequence of the way our visual system uses colour signals or a by–product of our experience. In principle, colour images are qualitatively different from greyscale images because they make it possible to use different processing strategies. Colour signals provide important cues for segmenting the image into areas that represent different objects and for linking together areas that represent the same object.

Chapter Six delves into the use of coloured light in films during the 1950s and 1960s, which was strongly connected to the discourses discussed in Chapter Five. Coloured light was also believed to make the human body and its molecules vibrate. It was believed to have healing powers and influence moods. Deviant and non-diegetic uses of coloured light were also used to increase ‘ostranenie’ or atmospheres of strangeness. This practice is traced back to Nouvelle Vague films, that experimented with the effect of Verfremdung, but also in horror films such as the then very popular Giallo films with

Abstract Cool coatings can play an important role in reducing global energy consumption and increasing interior comfort. They do this by minimizing solar absorption on a surface whilst maximizing thermal emission. Used in this way, a cool coating is able to reduce the flow of heat from the exterior coated surface into the building, resulting in lower internal temperatures. The reduction in the internal temperature can reduce the need for electricity used to power air conditioning units used for cooling.

Abstract:
Dredged materials provide a number of beneficial use opportunities, including beach nourishment, habitat creation and restoration, and other activities. In situ sediment color is important for determining aesthetic and habitat suitability, for beach nourishment, and for other projects. However, dredged materials must meet locally established color compatibility requirements (for example, material cannot be too dark). Often, potential sediment sources are close to meeting specified color thresholds, and previous observations suggest that sediments lighten over time. In response to these observa

Abstract:
Non-thermal luminescence of a substance is called luminescence. This process occurs by absorbing excitation energy. The substance itself is called a phosphor. In chemical nature, the phosphor is divided into two groups: organic and non-organic. In fluorescent lamps and other light sources, a non-organic phosphor is used. The main purpose of using phosphor in lighting fixtures is to save energy. Another significant factor is the availability and low cost in the market. And also, the variety of colors available on the market. The use of phosphors with laser diodes is a new direction in lighting

Abstract:
The need to improve energy efficiency of the building stock has led to a continuous increase in the implementation of exterior thermal insulation systems, such as ETICS. Progressively, these systems are being applied with darker colours, increasing the concern for hygrothermal behaviour and durability. Despite the significant developed studies, very few reports regarding their optical properties are available. The optical and catalytic capacity turns nanomaterials into excellent candidates for use in finishing coatings with high solar reflectance with dark colours without affecting the aesthet

Abstract:
This is one of the first studies in Sweden testing the notion of racial color-blindness empirically in a Swedish context, by asking a sample of Swedish participants to assign race to images of faces with different phenotypes, rate how ‘Swedish’ the faces are perceived (referred to the degree of ‘Swedishness’) and identify the skin color of the faces (through the NIS skincolor scale). We also use eye-tracking to explore whether participants look differently at faces of different racial groups. The results show that skin-color is a decisive factor in the racial ascription as Black, while skin co
