Ornamentation and Originality: Involution in Javanese Batik

Deconstructing Javanese Batik Motif When Traditional Heritage Meets Computation

The paper discusses some aspects of Iterated Function System while referring to some interesting point of view into Indonesian traditional batik. The deconstruction is delivered in our recognition of the Collage Theorem to find the affine transform of the iterated function system that attracts the iteration of drawing the dots into the complex motif of – or at least, having high similarity to –...

Ultra and Involution Ideals in $BCK$-algebras

In this paper, we define the notions of ultra and involution ideals in $BCK$-algebras. Then we get the relation among them and other ideals as (positive) implicative, associative, commutative and prime ideals. Specially, we show that in a bounded implicative $BCK$-algebra, any involution ideal is a positive implicative ideal and in a bounded positive implicative lower $BCK$-semilattice, the not...

The computational generative patterns in Indonesian batik

The paper discusses the terminology behind batik crafting and showed the aspects of self-similarity in its ornaments. Even though a product of batik cannot be reduced merely into its decorative properties, it is shown that computation can capture some interesting aspects in the batik-making ornamentation. There are three methods that can be exploited to the generative batik, i.e.: using fractal...

MHC Genotype and Ornamentation

Differences among males in immunocompetence can affect resistance to parasites and diseases, and sexual ornaments have been suggested to function as indicators of additive genetic variation in disease resistance, health and condition in the good gene models of sexual selection. In this paper the role of genetic variation in the immune system is discussed as an alternative route to explore wheth...
