Competition is intensifying as the golfwear market grows and expands rapidly due to the influx of MZ generation golfers, so it is necessary to plan knit golfwear products suitable to consumer needs The purpose of this study is to contribute to product planning by analyzing knit design factors according to the brand image of golfwear. First, the top five sales brands surveyed by Apparel News were selected. The selected brands were G-Fore, PXG, Malbon Golf, Titleist, and Mark & Lona. Knit products sold by the selected golfwear brands were investigated based on design factors, such as image, item, stich, yarn, color, and pattern to analyze knit design factors according to brand image. G-Fore's modern classical image was influenced by pullovers, vest items, 100% wool, color contrast, intasha stich, and monotone colors. PXG's sporty modern image was due to a mixture of rayon and polyester in jumper items, while Malbon Golf's American casual image applied character patterns and intasha knitwear. Line points, plain knitwear, and monotone colors were analyzed as design factors for Titleist's modern minimal image, while Mark & Lona's classic casual was analyzed as knit design factors, such as check patterns and jacquard knitwear. Differences in knit design factors according to brand image can be identified.

Tank color is an important environmental factor influencing aquaculture performance, but it remains poorly understood for juvenile giant trevally (Caranx ignobilis) under laboratory conditions. This study evaluated the effects of five different tank colors (white, blue, red, yellow, and dark grey) on growth performance, survival, feed utilization efficiency, body coloration, and biochemical composition of juvenile giant trevally. In a 28-day experiment, juvenile giant trevally with an initial mean length of 1.91 ± 0.03 cm and an initial weight of 0.24 ± 0.04 g were reared in tanks with different colors at a density of 1 fish/L, and each treatment was replicated three times. Results showed that fish reared in yellow tanks had higher growth rate, higher survival, and lower feed conversion ratio compared to those reared in white and blue tanks (p < 0.05). Fish reared in yellow and red tanks had significantly darker yellow body coloration and accumulated more carotenoids than those reared in white and dark grey tanks. Additionally, fish reared in yellow and red tanks had higher body protein content, whereas fish reared in white tanks had higher body moisture content (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that tank color could be an important factor in improving the rearing performance and skin pigmentation of juvenile giant trevally. Yellow tank color is suggested as a potential strategy to optimize juvenile giant trevally seed production in aquaculture.

In this paper, we present a hybrid approach which incorporates color, texture and shape in content-based image retrieval. Colors in each image are clustered into a small number of representative colors. The feature descriptor consists of the representative colors and their percentages in the image. A similarity measure similar to the cumulative color histogram distance measure is defined for this descriptor. The co-occurrence matrix as a statistical method is used for texture analysis. An optimal set of five statistical functions are extracted from the co-occurrence matrix of each image, in order to render the feature vector for eachimage maximally informative. The edge information captured within edge histograms is extracted after a pre-processing phase that performs color transformation, quantization, and filtering. The features where thus extracted and stored within feature vectors and were later compared with an intersection-based method. The content-based retrieval system is tested to be effective in terms of retrieval and scalability through experimental results and precision-recall analysis.
