Effects of artificial thermal aging on color variations of various commercial papers (fine paper, coated paper, newsprint and filter paper) were investigated. With thermal aging at $105^{\circ}C$, most of papers showed a special trend in $a^*-b^*$ plane: the $a^*$ (red-green) values of the samples were initially reduced (heading to - $a^*$ side) and after a turning point they increased to +$a^*$ side while the $b^*$(blue-yellow) values were kept increased to +$b^*$ side (yellowing of paper). Different papers had different turning points for $a^*$ value. The filter paper consisted of a pure chemical pulp and the copy paper with OBA (optical brightening agent) showed the latest turing points. In addition, the papers without OBA showed less reduction in brightness compared with that with OBA, suggesting that OBA could adversely influence the brightness stability during thermal aging.

This study examines and analyzes the current status, characteristics and properties of Super-Graphic as a visual element with Super Graphic designed on the wall of apartment housing, typifies them and explains the preference and evaluative structure by each type. The results of this study are as follows： According to color environment of Super-Graphic, N-tone colors are 21.4％ and YR-tone colors are 14.5％. In the whole distribution, cold color tone is 41.4％ and warm color tone is 37.2％. In the brightness, 72.9％ of the entire Super Graphic use high brightness and in the saturation, 51.2％ show low saturation, achromatic colors are 21.4％ and high saturation is 16.5％. As a result of conducting SD test to analyze the preference of Super-Graphic, 'wonderful' is most negative variable, followed by 'heterogeneous', 'splendid', 'romantic' variety'. Positive variables are 'monotone', 'stable' and 'calm'. As a result of factor analysis to reveal the evaluative structure of Super Graphic image based on the above results, five factors including brightness, saturation, stability, harmony and ordered are extracted and it is considered that these are important variables to be reflected in designing Super Graphic in future.

TIn this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy stretching method that adopts a triangle type fuzzy membership function to control the highest and lowest brightness limit dynamically. As an essential procedure to enhance the brightness contrast, stretching is an important procedure in color image processing. While popular Ends-in Search stretching method should be provided fixed minimum and maximum brightness threshold from experience, our proposed method determines them dynamically by fuzzy membership functions. The minimum and maximum limit is determined by computing the lowest and highest pixel value according to the membership degree of our designed triangle type membership function. The experiment shows that the proposed method result in far less skewed histogram than those of Ends-in Search stretching thus successfully verifies its effectiveness.

This study conducted a subjective evaluation of brightness perception and visual discomfort according to dimming speeds and CCTs(Correlated Color Temperatures). Dimming speeds of two different CCT lights(2,700K, 6400K) were set to 1.7%/s, 3.3%/s, 5.0%/s, 6.7%/s, and 10.0%/s respectively. Subjects checked the time when they perceived the change of the brightness and visual discomfort. As a result, when dimming speeds were 1.7%/s, 3.3%/s, 5.0%/s, 6.7%/s, more than half of subjects responded the change of the brightness in 55.0~45.0% dimming ratios, and felt the visual discomfort in 35~25% dimming ratios. When the brightness was changed, dimming level responded to the brightness perception of hight CCT(6,400K) was higher about 8.0% then dimming level responded to the brightness perception of low CCT(2,700K). Dimming level responded to the visual discomfort of low CCT(2,700K) was higher about 5.0% then dimming level responded to the visual discomfort of hight CCT(6,400K).

In this paper, we propose a new algorithm to improve the contrast ratio, to preserve information of bright regions and to maintain the color of backlight image that appears with a great relative contrast. Backlight images of the natural environment have characteristics for difference of local brightness; the overall image contrast improvement is not easy. To improve the contrast of the backlight images, MSR (Multi-Scale Retinex) algorithm using the existing multi-scale Gaussian filter is applied. However, existing multi-scale Gaussian filter involves color distortion and information loss of bright regions due to excessive contrast enhancement and noise because of the brightness improvement of dark regions. Moreover, it also increases computational complexity due to the use of multi-scale Gaussian filter. In order to solve these problems, a linear MSR is performed that reduces the amount of computation from the HSV color space preventing the color distortion and information loss due to excessive contrast enhancement. It can also remove the noise of the dark regions which is occurred due to the improved contrast through edge preserving filter. Through experimental evaluation of the average color difference comparison of CIELAB color space and the visual assessment, we have confirmed excellent performance of the proposed algorithm compared to conventional MSR algorithm.

This study is the one on space image and preference of stylish hotels. And in addition to them, it is the one to verify the minimal style arrangement in the survey results about verbal image and color image of stylish according to gender and age which are the precedent studies. The research result has found that there was no any meaningful difference in gender and age. And the result which extracted the representative languages to investigate correlationship between space image and verbal image of stylish has done that you feel that space image is stylish recognizing individual, sensuous, simple and urban characteristics. Also, space image and preference has done that there are B Hotel of Robby space, C Hotel of food and drink space and A Hotel of room space and color image and preference has done that there are respectively high brightness and low chroma, high brightness and low chroma and low brightness and low chroma. They are the same result with the minimal style arrangement which was recognized as the most stylish things in the precedent studies. It has found that the respondents recognize space image of Stylish hotels as refined, sensuous and individual one linguistically and space of high brightness and low chroma, low brightness and low chroma and low brightness and low chroma as the stylish things. The purpose of the study is to suggest the new design directions for stylish space display and design marketing.

This paper presents a microcontroller-based control circuit for color variation of high brightness RGB LEDs in $8{\times}8$ matrix array. The control circuit is comprised of an AT89C52 chip, D Flip-flops, and transistors for switching, and is used to adjust the number of LEDs operated for color variation. For a stable operation, it is required that the input current to each LED should be maintained to a normal value irrespective of the number of LEDs operated.

The relationship is derived for color CRT display system between the spectral radian existence emitted and digital inputs. The amount of spectral radiant existence depends on the characteristics of the video board, electric circuits, and CRT as well as digital inputs. Especially, the function of this relationship changes as the amplifier gain and offset voltage of electric circuits. In this study, we set the test display system on the optimum state which satisfies gun independence characteristics by using the contrast and the brightness controls of display. Temporal stability, special uniformity, and color distinction of CRT display system are evaluated at the optimum state. Also contrasts in dark room and illuminated room are compared.

We performed a study to investigate the characteristics of color perception according to some factors and to suggest the initial setting value of color temperature in each mode of a PC and TV monitor. Investigated factors were monitor coating (coating vs. noncoating)and screen brightness(30fL vs. 35fL). Twenty-three subjects (male 12, female 11) participated in this experiment. The experiment was performed in eachmode of a PC and TV monitor. Average color temperatures were obtained in both PC- mode and TV- mode. In addition, effects of monitor coating and screen brightness were investigated.
