In this paper, a new approach is presented for improving image quality. It provides a new outlook on how to apply the enhancment methods on images. Image enhancement techniques may deal with the  illumination, resolution, or distribution of pixels values. Issues such as the illumination of the scene and reflectance of objects affect on image captures. Generally, the pixels value of an image is ...

a procedure for an efficient recovering of reflectance spectra of acrylic paint samples from cie tristimulus color values is described. by fixing a certain criteria based on color difference value, the proposed technique preliminarily selects a series of suitable samples from a main dataset containing the reflectance values of a series of different acrylic paint samples, based on the color spec...

We present the bidirectional reflectance of a Labsphere calibration plaque, both dry and submerged in water, at normal illumination. The measurements indicate that when submerged in water, the Labsphere calibration plaque has a higher reflectance value than when dry at viewing angles below 55 degrees . The results are presented in the form of a reflectance factor and are useful for calibrating ...

We study the statistics of the reflectance (the ratio of reflected and incident intensities) of an N -mode disordered waveguide with weak absorption γ per mean free path. Two distinct regimes are identified. The regime γN ≫ 1 shows universal fluctuations. With increasing length L of the waveguide, the variance of the reflectance changes from the value 2/15N, characteristic for universal conduct...

In 1873 Mertens proved the existence of the limit B =limx!1(Pp x 1p log logx). Healso gave an expansion for the numerical evaluation of B, involving zeta values. In thispaper we estimate the error in this expansion and compute B with several hundreds ofdecimals. Our approach depends on the knowledge of the sum of a certain Lambert series.Classi cation: 11A41

In this paper, we present an optical model that simulates the light trapping and scattering effects of a paraboloid texture surface first time. This model was experimentally verified by measuring the reflectance values of the periodically textured silicon (Si) surface with the shape of a paraboloid under different conditions. A paraboloid texture surface was obtained by electrochemical etching ...

We present an octonionic N = 1 superfield action that reproduces in components the action of Bagger and Lambert for M2 branes. By giving an expectation value to one of the scalars we obtain the maximally supersymmetric superfield action for D2 branes.

The estimation of nitrogen status, non-destructively, in oilseed rape was performed using spectral reflectance with visible and near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (Vis/NIRS), and SPAD values of the oilseed rape leaves of 30 plots were measured by a SPAD 502 chlorophyll meter, and the research was carried out at experiment field in the Zhejiang University during growing season from 2007 to 2...

this study was carried out to determine nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents of rangeland plants using spectral reflectance value. the measurements were made in 1 m2 area of different parts of a rangeland. a portable spectroradiometer capable of measuring the wavelength range of 325-1,075 nm of the electromagnetic spectrum was used to collect spectral data. spectral measurements were ma...
