A Multivariate Methodological Workflow for the Analysis of FTIR Chemical Mapping Applied on Historic Paint Stratigraphies by Giorgia Sciutto, Paolo Oliveri, Silvia Prati, Emilio Catelli, Irene Bonacini, Rocco Mazzeo

“…Initially, principal component analysis (PCA) is performed and the score values are converted into chemical maps. Successively, the brushing approach is applied, demonstrating its usefulness for a deep understanding of the relationships between the multivariate map and PC score space, as well as for the identification of the spectral bands mainly involved in the definition of each area localised within the score maps.…”

Distance of interaction: a phenomenological analysis of elastic scattering data induced by light projectiles by Valdir Guimarães, Pierre Camilo Nistal, Sunday D. Olorunfunmi, Sunday D. Olorunfunmi, Roberto Linares, Jesus Lubian

“…IntroductionA phenomenological analysis, based on distances, has been performed for elastic scattering data induced by tightly bound (11B, 12C, and 16O), weakly bound (6Li, 7Li, 7Be, and 9Be), and exotic (6He, 8B, 11Be, and 15C) nuclei on light (27Al), medium (58Ni and 120Sn), and heavy mass (208Pb) targets, respectively, at energies close to the Coulomb barrier.MethodsThe cross-section data on the angular distributions have been converted as a function of the distance of the closest approach.ResultsFrom a fitting analysis, critical interaction and strong absorption distances were extracted from the data.DiscussionCorrelation was observed with the projectile cluster configuration for the data on the target 208Pb.…”

Single image visibility restoration using optical compensation and pixel-by-pixel transmission estimation by Yan YANG, Gao-ke CHEN

“…Aiming at image degradation in hazy and sandstorm weather,an optical compensation color restoration and pixel-by-pixel transmissvity estimation algorithm was proposed.The blue light was absorbed by sandstorm particles.The color shift phenomenon could be eliminated by optical compensate method,which convert the sandstorm images into hazy images.Then the ratio relationship between the minimum channel and its Gaussian function as the transmissivity,and median filter was used to eliminate its texture effects.The depth of the restored transmissivity alternated obviously and the edge was well preserved,which did not need the time-consuming postprocessing operativity.Finally,the image was restored by the atmospheric scattering model.The experimental results show that recovered sandstorm image treatment is better,and the saturation of the haze image is appropriate,the bright area is more nature,and running time is faster.…”

Digital media representation under complex number base and its application on information hiding by Wei CHEN, Ya-nan CHEN, IUYuan L

“…With the rapid development and wide application of the digital media technology,the information security problem is becoming more and more highly attention.Because of the various kinds of medias,previous research works have focused on a specific digital media from,such as text,image,audio and video.As a fact that all the objects were expressed in digital forms under the environment of computer and network,a unified form for all kinds of digital media under the complex number base system was proposed.The algorithm of the digital media signal and the complex number intercom version were given,so the relationship among the digital media could be converted to the corresponding geometric relationship on the complex plane.In the experiments,the proposed method was applied to the application of the digital media information hiding.…”
