Consider a deck of real cards with faces that are either black or red and backs that are all identical. Then, using two cards of different colors, we can commit a secret bit to a pair of face-down cards so that its order (i.e., black to red, or red to black) represents the value of the bit. Given such two commitments (consisting of four face-down cards in total) together with one additional bla...

Demand for Asian vegetables is rising rapidly due to changing demographics and increasing consumer awareness of their health benefits. However, growers are not familiar with growing these “foreign” crops insufficient technical information regarding suitable cultivars different regions, production schedules, disease pest susceptibility, postharvest management. The objective this study was conduc...

We examined the genetic diversity of 80 inbred waxy maize lines using 22 SSR molecular markers that could be used to achieve heterosis in waxy maize. Eighty inbred waxy maize lines with different phenotypes, 40 yellow, 25 white, 13 black, and two red lines were analyzed by SSR molecular marker fingerprint and cluster analysis. Using a standard genetic distance of 0.55, the 80 waxy maize i...

The goal of this research is classifying the basic and non-basic colors Sumenep Madurese dialect. This descriptive qualitative in which data were analyzed using universal color theory Berlin Kay (1969) also an ethnolinguistic approach. As a result, dialect has six names, namely potѐ 'white', celleng 'black', mѐra 'red', bhiru 'green', konѐng 'yellow', cokklat 'brown', three names classified col...

This paper presents a study on the effect of glittering and reflective objects with different colors to the output voltagedistance characteristics of Sharp GP2D120 IR Sensor, which operates by employing the principle of single point triangulation. The study was conducted by using a compact disk and plastic materials with four different colors, in which the distance for each of them was measured...

Fechner described the phenomenon of inducing illusory colors by means of rotating blackand-white disks. The induced spectral illusions were later termed ’Fechner’s colors’. Similar color perceptions can be induced by non-rotating stimuli even on computer screens. We performed an experiment to investigate whether a uniform ’Ganzfeld’ formed by means of rhythmically generated, unstructured, monoc...
