Advances in the quality of computer visualisation over last 15 years have significantly improved the ability of geoscientists to interpret seismic data. However, the increasing trend to simultaneously interpret multiple attributes has been supported by significant improvements in the levels of quality being achieved in colour data visualisation in the past 5 years [Henderson, 2007]. Such effect...

In the European Citclops project, with a prime aim of developing new tools to involve citizens in the water quality monitoring of natural waters, colour was identified as a simple property that can be measured via a smartphone app and by dedicated low-cost instruments. In a recent paper, we demonstrated that colour, as expressed mainly by the hue angle (α), can also be derived accurately and co...

Tea colour determination during fermentation is a vital problem in the tea industries. The human experts have been traditionally measuring change of colour during fermentation by picking up some amount and observing the colour by eye approximation. Methods are also available for analyzing the formation of colour constituents during fermentation. Another method uses colorimeter for determining t...

This study describes the effects of different stocking densities on texture/colour characteristics, protein content /amino acid and lipid content/fatty acid composition of rainbow trout fillet. Stocking density was selected 5 (Group A), 15 (Group B), 25 (Group C) kg fish m−3. Tukey’s Multiple Comparison Test showed insignificant differences between measured size/weight measurement and condition f...

We address two quality issues in endoscopy videos originating from: (a) Colour Channel Misalignment: In current endoscope systems, the colour channel images are most commonly acquired sequentially at different time instances. Whenever the camera moves significantly between acquisition instances, the colour channels get misaligned. This misalignment degrades the quality of the video due to the a...

Based on previous research on super-resolution and colour correction by example, the present project employs such techniques towards a high-quality reclamation of lost art. The aim is to produce high-quality images of nowadays destroyed or missing paintings using the correspondence between similar artworks available in both low and high quality images. Several approaches for both super-resoluti...

In this paper, we propose a colour image processing method by combining modern signal processing technique with knowledge about the properties of the human colour vision system. Colour signals are processed differently according to their visual importance. The emphasis of the technique is on the preservation of total visual quality of the image and simultaneously taking into account computation...

Aesthetic requirement in dentistry is getting more and more important every day. One of its basic principles is the correct selection of colour for the restorations. Colour is a quality which is modulated by a series of factors, environmental and individual, that the clinic must know. Colour measurement by the human eye can induce to an appreciation mistake if it doesn't follow a correct protoc...

the objective of this study was to investigate dehydration kinetics of barberry (berberis vulgaris l.) at different drying temperatures (60 ºc, 70 ºc, 80 ºc), air velocities (0.3 m s-1, 0.5 m s-1, 1 m s-1) with two types of pretreatment. drying time and colour quality during dehydration were experimentally determined. barberries were dried from the initial moisture content of 73.44% (w.b.) to t...
