چکیده

Camouflage is an attempt to make a target "invisible" by making the target appearance blend into the background. Camouflage related work is typically either in camouflage assessment and design or in camouflage breaking. This paper will discuss two current methods of camouflage breaking. Camouflage breaking is important because of the obvious military tactics, background subtraction, and general knowledge of object extraction. The first method is multiple camouflage breaking by co-occurrence and Canny. The second method is convexity-based camouflage breaking. Both methods seem to achieve desired results, but the convexity-based camouflage breaking method is clearly a more robust algorithm.

Convexity-Based Camouflage Breaking

This paper presents biological evidence for camouflage breaking using the convexity of the intensity function. Some animals use apatetic coloring especially to prevent their detection by graylevel convexity. This implies that other animals might be able to break camouflage based on graylevel convexity. We demonstrate the effectiveness of convexity based camouflage breaking using an operator (“D...

A Model for Visual Camouflage Breaking

Some animals use counter-shading in order to prevent their detection by predators. Counter-shading means that the albedo of the animal is such that its image has a flat intensity function rather than a convex intensity function. This implies that there might exist predators who can detect 3D objects based on the convexity of the intensity function. In this paper, we suggest a mathematical model...

Critique of Novel/ The Reality at the Altar of Power: A review of Dear Mim as metafiction, Mahshad Shahbazi

As a type of writing originating in postmodernism, metafiction by breaking fictional frameworks and distorting boundaries of imagination and reality tries to reveal the artificial nature of reality and its constructedness in relation to the dominant power discourses. Thus, every playful chaos in the postmodern novel form stems from the depths of critical thinking in postmodernist skepticism abo...

Convexity-Based Visual Camouflage Breaking

Camouflage is frequently used by animals and humans (usually for military purposes) in order to conceal objects from visual surveillance or inspection. Most camouflage methods are based on superpositioning multiple edges on the object that is supposed to be hidden, such that its familiar contours and texture are masked. In this work, we present an operator, (Darg), that is applied directly to t...
