Toluene (methylbenzene) is a colourless liquid used as a solvent in the manufacture of synthetic rubber paint and lacquer as well as trinitrotoluene (Fairhall, 1957). Chronic or acute exposure to high concentrations is known to be toxic and to cause renal and hepatocellular damage (O'Brien, Yeoman, and Hobby, 1971). This report deals with severe myoglobinuria and acute renal failure necessitati...

In this paper we describe the problem of painter classification, and propose a novel approach based on deep convolutional autoencoder neural networks. While previous approaches relied on image processing and manual feature extraction from paintings, our approach operates on the raw pixel level, without any preprocessing or manual feature extraction. We first train a deep convolutional autoencod...

Consider the following game between two players, Builder and Painter. Builder draws edges one at a time and Painter colours them, in either red or blue, as each appears. Builder’s aim is to force Painter to draw a monochromatic copy of a fixed graph G. The minimum number of edges which Builder must draw, regardless of Painter’s strategy, in order to guarantee that this happens is known as the o...

A definition of pictorial style in terms of distinctive combinations of pictorial devices characteristic of a particular culture or period or the work of an individual artist is proposed. Four kinds of pictorial structure are described: the drawing (spatial) systems, the denotation systems, the mark systems and the attributes systems. Three pictures by Poussin, Rembrandt and the Achilles painte...
