The planarized $SiO_2$ particles were prepared by two-step reduction method of making much smaller particles, micron-sized ones, to improve spreadability, adherence, and smoothness. Various pigments known as flaky extender usually have terrace layers on their surfaces, but $SiO_2$ particles in this study exhibit a smooth surface structure. These single $SiO_2$ particles were used as core particles to prepare the composite particles coated with ultra fine $TiO_2$ particles by a homogeneous precipitation method. The thickness and the morphology of the deposited $TiO_2$ layers could be modified by adjusting the reactant concentrations, the reaction time and the temperature. The characteristics of $SiO_2/TiO_2$ composite in the field of color cosmetics are to give an UV-cut effect and to enhance the chroma of human skin color, one of optical properties.

The sensibilities of cotton fabrics were subjectively evaluated by 126 subjects with 7-points scale questionnaires using the 4-dimensions and 8-axes system, which was composed of adjectives such as ‘masculine-feminine’,‘new-old’,‘casual-classical’, and ‘ambiguous-arranged’. And the sensibilities of cotton fabrics were classified through the cluster analysis. Also, we measured color and physical characteristics, which were variables to have an effect on the sensibilities of cotton fabrics. The sensibilities of cotton fabrics were classified into 8 groups such as ‘feminine, arranged, and classical sensibility’,‘arranged, classical, and old sensibility’,‘feminine sensibility’,‘new, feminine, and ambiguous sensibility’,‘casual and new sensibility’, and ‘ambiguous and old sensibility’The sensibilities of cotton fabrics were more influenced by color characteristics such as value, chroma, and hue than by physical characteristics.

Music is now digitally produced and distributed via internet and we face a huge amount of music day by day. A music summarization technology has been studied in order to help people concentrate on the most impressive section of the song andone can skim a song as listening the climax(chorus, refrain) only. Recent studies try to find the climax section using various methods such as finding diagonal line segment or kernel based segmentation. All these methods fail to capture the inherent structure of music due to polyphonic and noisy nature of music. In this paper, after applying moving average filter to time domain of MFCC/chroma feature, we achieved a remarkable result to capture the music structure.

본 논문에서는 균일한 색 분포를 위한 밝기 사상과 최대 색도 재현을 위한 색역 사상 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 밝기 사상시 발생하는 두 색역에서의 평균 밝기의 차이의 증가 및 어두운 영역과 밝은 영역에서의 색 변화의 차이가 증가하는 문제를 해결하기 위하여 각 색상의 정점에서의 밝기 차이를 최소화하고 밝은 영역과 어두운 영역에서의 균일한 색 분포를 가지는 밝기 사상 방법을 제안하였다. 또한, 최대 채도 유지 및 균일 색 분포를 위한 가변 닻점과 고정 닻점을 혼합으로 사용하는 색역 사상 방법을 제안하였다. 따라서 저가의 칼라 출력장치에서 고화질의 칼라를 재현할 수 있게 한다.

This paper proposes a multilevel vector error diffusion for fast and accurate color reproduction. Proposed method considered both hue angle and Euclidean distance during the multilevel vector error diffusion procedure to improve time complexity and output image quality In the error diffusion process, it can be determined whether error is diffused or not by comparing the vector norm and lightness value between original vector and error corrected vector of neighborhood pixels. For adaptive selection of output patch, this paper computes chroma value of error corrected vector and compares the hue angle between error corrected input vector and 64 primary color vectors.

This study examined the effect of the main color of apartment building as background color on the preference for residential streetscape in the relation with surrounding environment of streetscape with its focus on the color of apartment building outer wall. To research a visual evaluation structure, this study aimed to understand its characteristics through quantitative assay and to provide more scientific and specific data about improvement direction. The results suggested that the current brightness and chroma of main color of apartment building was high and low respectively which was advisable. On the other hand, in the color, when the components of the whole streetscape included buildings or soundproofing walls, a streetscape image needed to be improved though the color scheme of 4-distance color difference.

H.264/AVC High 4:4:4 Intra/Predictive profiles supports RGB 4:4:4 sequences for high fidelity video. RGB color planes rather than YCbCr color planes are preferred by high-fidelity video applications such as digital cinema, medical imaging, and UHDTV. Several RGB coding tools have therefore been developed to improve the coding efficiency of RGB video. In this paper, we propose a new method to extract more accurate correlation parameters for inter-plane prediction. We use a searching method to determine the matched macroblock (MB) that has a similar inter-color relation to the current MB. Using this block, we can infer more accurate correlation parameters to predict chroma MB from luma MB. Our proposed inter-plane prediction mode shows an average bits saving of 15.6% and a PSNR increase of 0.99 dB compared with H.264 high4:4:4 intra-profile RGB coding. Furthermore, extensive performance evaluation revealed that our proposed algorithm has better coding efficiency than existing algorithms..

Aspergillus fumigatus(AF) and Penicillum citrinum(PC) were selected for their strong abilities to produce protease. The result are summarized as follows; 1. The λd numerical values of the silk fabrics with AF and PC were 560 and 580 nm for the both stains of molds. 2. By the growth of molds, lightness, original color scale, and grey scale of the fabrics gradually decreased while chroma increased. 3. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of mold proofing agents, such as Leperon WL, 8-hydroxyquinoline copper acetates, trimethylol melamine and dimethly ethylene urea was 50 ppm. 4. Glycoxale was not effective at the abovely concentration. Since Leperon WL, dimethyl ethylene urea effectively inhibited the growth of PC silk, tensile strengh and elongation of the fabrics were not changed.

This paper investigates the relationship between the compression ratio and the gamut area for a reconstructed image when using JPEG and JPEG2000. Eighteen color samples from the Macbeth ColorChecker are initially used to analyze the relationship between the compression ratio and the color bleeding phenomenon, i.e. the hue and chroma shifts in the a*b* color plane. In addition, twelve natural color images, divided into two groups depending on four color attributes, are also used to investigate the relationship between the compression ratio and the variation in the gamut area. For each image group, the gamut area for the reconstructed image shows an overall tendency to increase when increasing the compression ratio, similar to the experimental results with the Macbeth ColorChecker samples. However, with a high compression ratio, the gamut area decreases due to the mixture of adjacent colors, resulting in more grey.

This study aims to investigate the method to reduce the surface temperature caused by insolation. To achieve this goal, surface temperature of building is measured and the effects of exterior material's color and brilliance were checked with infrared imaging. And also, exterior material's absorptances due to outdoor surface heat transfer coefficients were measured. After surface temperature measurement of 37 specimen of 5 categories, the temperature is the highest on wood($53.62^{\circ}C$) and panel($52.05^{\circ}C$). Dryvit, stone, brick is the rating of order. For exterior material's absorptances, panel(0.883) and wood(0.868) were high and Dryvit, stone, brick follows wood and panel.
