This supplement has been produced on behalf of Bayer and reports a Bayer-funded and organised satellite symposium held 2 April 2016, during the 7th World Congress of Controversies in Ophthalmology, Warsaw, Poland. Attributed comment and opinion reflect the views of faculty speakers and participants and do not necessarily reflect those of Bayer. The experts debate UKEYL07160053. Date of preparat...

We study a family of stable curves defined combinatorially from a trivalent graph. Most of our results are related to the conjecture of Green which relates the Clifford index of a smooth curve, an important intrinsic invariant measuring the “specialness” of the geometry of the curve, to the “resolution Clifford index,” a projective invariant defined from the canonical embedding. Thus we study t...

We give a construction of the moduli space of stable maps to the classifying stack Bμr of a cyclic group by a sequence of r-th root constructions on M0,n. We prove a closed formula for the total Chern class of μreigenspaces of the Hodge bundle, and thus of the obstruction bundle of the genus zero Gromov-Witten theory of stacks of the form [C/μr ]. We deduce linear recursions for all genus-zero ...

This document contains additional debate between Bayer CropScience and authors of the chapter 'Seed-dressing systemic insecticides and honeybees' Laura Maxim and Jeroen van der Sluijs.  The Bayer CropScience view on Maxim and van der Sluijs 'Seed-dressing systemic insecticides and honeybees' (page 2)  Response to the Bayer Cropscience (Richard Schmuck) comments on the chapter by Laura Maxim a...

Image demosaicing is a problem of interpolating full-resolution color images from so-called color-filter-array (CFA) samples. Among various CFA patterns, Bayer pattern has been the most popular choice and demosaicing of Bayer pattern has attracted renewed interest in recent years partially due to the increased availability of source codes/executables in response to the principle of “reproducibl...

A non-parametric high dynamic range (HDR) fusion approach is proposed that works on raw images of singlesensor color imaging devices which incorporate the Bayer pattern. Thereby the non-linear opto-electronic conversion function (OECF) is recovered before color demosaicing, so that interpolation artifacts do not affect the photometric calibration. Graph-based segmentation greedily clusters the ...
