Tailoring the angular and spectral reflectance characteristics of color-dynamic films by modifying their photonic texture and topcoat roughness by Blair, Andrew D.

“…An effective approach for controlling the optical properties of such color-dynamic photonic films, which are manufactured holographically, is demonstrated using two simple control handles: the texture of the photonic structure and the surface roughness of a transmissive topcoat. …”

Dropassist - droplet photography by Tham, Joel Yew Hng

“…Many factors including timing of drops, alignment, and when the shutter is triggered, affect the final photograph. The process of capturing droplets is largely manual in nature and thus, introduces more variables affecting the final product. …”

Delving deeper into the whorl of flower segmentation by Nilsback, M, Zisserman, A

“…<p>We describe an algorithm for automatically segmenting flowers in colour photographs. This is a challenging problem because of the sheer variety of flower classes, the variability within a class and within a particular flower, and the variability of the imaging conditions – lighting, pose, foreshortening, etc.…”

Mian xiang : my face my story. by Hu, Qiren.

“…Using the Chinese traditional practice of face-reading, Mian Xiang as a vehicle and narrative tool, this project investigates into a person’s life based on evidences from old photographs, documents and belongings. According to Professor Ernst Van Alphen, a successful portrait confronts viewers not only with the “original”, “unique”, subjectivity of the portrayer, but also of that of the portrayed. …”

Classifying images of materials: achieving viewpoint and illumination independence by Varma, M, Zisserman, A

“…Having built a texton dictionary, we present a novel method of classifying a single image without requiring any a priori knowledge about the viewing or illumination conditions under which it was photographed. We argue that using rotationally invariant filters while clustering in such a low dimensional space improves classification performance and demonstrate this claim with results on all 61 textures in the Columbia-Utrecht database. …”

Meeting of minds: narratives as a tool to reduce prejudice toward stigmatized group members by Kim, Nuri, Lim, Cui Min

“…Conceiving narrative texts as a context for mediated intergroup contact, we experimentally test (N = 505) the effects of narrative perspective (first vs. third person) and the photograph of the outgroup protagonist (present vs. absent) on perceived social presence of the outgroup character. …”

Peace. by Ong, Chee Wee.

“…“Peace”, is a body of work that draws its context from the Chinese sayings and literature that often uses trees as symbols or metaphors that depicts the father figure. Taking photographs of trees that are random and unattractive, reflecting and transforming them into beautiful images that is both chaotic yet structured, this body of work reflects my struggle to keep up to my own interpretation of my father’s expectations(of me). …”

Face recognition in unconstrained images and videos by Nguyen, Bich Hoang Anh

“…Many methods have been proposed to deal with the large appearance changes of human face, yet it is still debatable which method works best on the unconstrained environment in ordinary photograph and video. This thesis thoroughly reviews and implements some state-of-the-art methods for image-based face recognition as well as completely studies their performance on various large scale dataset. …”

Experimental investigation of bedding plane orientation on the rockburst behavior of sandstone by He, M. C., Nie, W., Zhao, Z. Y., Guo, Wei

“…The trajectory sketches are drawn to calculate the initial velocities of the rock fragments ejected based on the photographs taken by the high-speed camera. The results show that the mass and velocity of fragments are the two main parameters for the identification of the energy-transferring process in the rockburst test. …”

MAS.963 Special Topics: Computational Camera and Photography, Fall 2008 by Raskar, Ramesh

“…If novel cameras can be designed to sample light in radically new ways, then rich and useful forms of visual information may be recorded &mdash; beyond those present in traditional photographs. Furthermore, if computational process can be made aware of these novel imaging models, them the scene can be analyzed in higher dimensions and novel aesthetic renderings of the visual information can be synthesized. …”

Dynamic range of camera in photography by Oon, Nicole Xin Jie

“…When taking photographs with a digital camera under bright sunshine, it is often the case that we lose details of the image due to over exposure in areas where it is too bright showing only pure white colour and under exposure in area where it is too dark showing only pure black colour. …”
