Computer simulated stimuli can provide a flexible method for creating artificial scenes in the study of visual perception of material surface properties. Previous work based on this approach reported that the properties of surface roughness and glossiness are mutually interdependent and therefore, perception of one affects the perception of the other. In this case roughness was limited to a sur...

Two experiments explore the color perception of objects in complex scenes. The first experiment examines the color perception of objects across variation in surface gloss. Observers adjusted the color appearance of a matte sphere to match that of a test sphere. Across conditions we varied the body color and glossiness of the test sphere. The data indicate that observers do not simply match the ...

A study was conducted to evaluate the influence of laboratory light polymerization systems on the post-curing properties of a composite. An indirect composite (Sinfony) was polymerized with five polymerization systems (Visio system, Hyper LII, Pearlcure Light, Twinkle MIII, and UniXS II) using nine polymerization modes. After light exposure, Knoop hardness number, wear depth, and changes in glo...

For over 3 decades, computer graphics technology has been developed to simulate physically accurate image of real scene. Meanwhile, useful tone mapping methods have been developed to map luminance range of the simulated image into that of usual monitor without perceptual distortion. However, it is difficult to reproduce accurate glossiness of real objects within the limited monitor luminance ra...

Hadis tarihi kitaplarında Osmanlı, üzerinde durulmayan dönemlerden birisidir. Sebepleri arasında Osmanlı’da özgün çalışma yapılmadığı iddiası ve çoğu eserin yazma hâlinde olması zikredilebilir. Oysa olup olmadığının tespit edilebilmesi için öncelikle hâlindeki eserlerin muhtevaları analiz edilmelidir. Böylece hadis eğitimi alanlarında fikir yürütülebilir öne çıkan yönleri ya da eksikleri ortaya...

for dissemination) This document describes the Gloss infrastructure supporting implementation of location-aware services. The document is in two part. The first part describes software architecture for the smart space. As described in D8, a local architecture provides a framework for constructing Gloss applications, termed assemblies, that run on individual physical nodes, whereas a global arch...

WordNet [4] is the lexical database for English language. A synset is a WordNet structure for storing senses of the words. Synset contains a set of synonym words and their brief description called gloss. For example, well, wellspring and fountainhead have the same meaning according to WordNet, so these three words are grouped in to one synset which is explained by a gloss "an abundant source". ...
