seen on color photography (Figure 2). Her visual acuity loss and fundus findings were attributed to choroidal infarction that occurred immediately postoperatively. A cerebral internal carotid artery angiogram performed 4 days postoperatively, once her proptosis resolved, revealed a surgical clip at the expected location and no evidence of a clip or obstruction at the level of the ophthalmic art...

In the last decade, we have seen significant improvement in the ease and cost of capturing multimedia content. However, the aesthetic quality of the content captured by an amateur user still needs substantial improvement. Camera devices have intelligent features, such as automatic focus, face detection, etc., to assist users in taking better photos, however, it remains a challenge for an amateu...

Vaquero-Alba and colleagues published a study in The Auk: Ornithological Advances comparing objective color measurements of plumage taken in the field directly on a bird’s body to those taken in the lab on collected feathers arranged to emulate the appearance of a bird’s natural plumage. Although the field measures of plumage color were less repeatable than lab measures, the authors concluded t...

adaptive compression methods for color images. One, we use ferential pulse code modulation (DPCM) [25], transform clustering or segmentation procedures to determine self-similar coding [25, 30], and vector quantization [12], developed image regions. Two, for each such region we use a Karhunen– initially for encoding monochrome images. This approach Loeve compression method to model the importan...

We describe a system for transforming an off-the-shelf flatbed scanner into a $200 scan backend for large format cameras. While we describe both software and hardware aspects, the focus of the paper is on software issues such as color calibration and removal of scanner artifacts. With current scanner technology, the resulting camera system is capable of taking black&white, color, or near-infrar...

In video games, High Dynamic Range (HDR) rendering is commonly used and allows us to render more photo-realistic looking images. HDR rendering uses a tone-mapping process to achieve a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) rendering result for a display. The process compresses or clamps HDR color information to fit LDR devices which typically have an 8-bit color resolution. There are a lot of tone-mapping alg...
