The Processing of high-dynamic-range (HDR) images is embodied by a lot of algorithms. This paper takes notice of one of these algorithms which is presented using the iCAM06. iCAM06 is capable of making color appearance predictions of HDR images based on CIECAM02 color predictions and incorporating spatial process models in the human visual system (HVS) for contrast enhancement. The effect of us...

By analyzing soybean structural and physiological characteristic sufficiently, the paper proposes a plant structural controllable modeling method for soybean. It selects the key structural factors firstly, and collects the relevant field data. Then it extracts the organ structure and position laws along with their vertical and horizontal change to establish controllable structural model. Combin...

Games of chance are often used as conceptual models of random processes in nature. For example, an exhibit on the heart in Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry includes a kind of pinball machine. After the balls bounce somewhat randomly through this machine, they fall into bins symbolizing the different states of health of one's heart. One can bias the outcomes for better or for worse by tu...

The Taguchi method is a useful technique to improve the performance of products or processes at a lower cost and in less time. This procedure can be categorized in the static and dynamic quality characteristics. The optimization of multiple responses has received increasing attention over the last few years in many manufacturing organizations.  Several approaches dealing with multiple static q...

For centuries mankind has been modifying the optical properties of materials: first, by elaborating the geometry and composition of structures made of materials found in nature, later by structuring the existing materials at a scale smaller than the operating wavelength. Here we suggest an original approach to introduce optical activity in nanostructured materials, by theoretically demonstratin...
