Group-fair learning methods typically seek to ensure that some measure of prediction efficacy for (often historically) disadvantaged minority groups is comparable the majority population. When a principal seeks adopt group-fair approach replace another, may face opposition from those who feel they be harmed by switch, and this, in turn, deter adoption. We propose potential mitigation this conce...

In recent years, several techniques have been proposed for automatically producing line-art illustrations. In this paper a new non photo-realistic rendering scheme for triangulated surfaces is presented. In contrast to prior approaches with parametric surfaces, there is no global parameterization for triangle meshes. So a new approach is made to automatically generate a direction field for the ...

In this paper we show how to extend point-based surface rendering to illustrate object motion. We do this by first extruding the circular points into ellipsoids, which fill the space traced out by the points in motion. Using ellipsoids instead of cylinders achieves a low-passing effect of the motion trail. We then find the screen-space projection of each ellipsoid, which is an ellipse. These ca...

Historical and empirical data have linked artistic creativity to depression and other affective disorders. This study examined how vulnerability to experiencing negative affect, measured with biological products, and intense negative emotions influenced artistic creativity. The authors assessed participants' baseline levels of an adrenal steroid (dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate, or DHEAS), previ...

Artistic image understanding is an interdisciplinary research field of increasing importance for the computer vision and art history communities. One of the goals of this field is the implementation of a system that can automatically retrieve and annotate artistic images. The best approach in the field explores the artistic influence among different artistic images using graph-based learning me...

A support environment for audio-related artistic design is described. The rst part of the paper identiies requirements for artistic design support through an analysis of music composition activities, and presents an artistic design system object model adapted from the more conventional engineering design system technology. The second part examines the problems of representation, visualisation a...

Richard Cytowic has argued that synesthetic experimentation by modern artists was based on deliberate contrivances of sensory fusion and not on involuntary experiences of cross-modal association. He has placed artistic experiments with sensory fusion outside the domain of synesthesia research. Artistic experiments, though historically interesting, are considered irrelevant for the study of syne...

This paper describes a thesis exploring how computer programs can collaborate as equals in the artistic creative process. The proposed system, CoCo Sketch, encodes some rudimentary stylistic rules of abstract sketching and music theory to contribute supplemental lines and music while the user sketches. We describe a three-part research method that includes defining rudimentary stylistic rules f...
