    • Observer variability in metameric color matches using color reproduction media 

      Alfvin, Richard; Fairchild, Mark (Wiley InterScience: Color Research & Application, 1998-12-06)
      Standard color-matching functions are designed to represent the mean color-matching response of the population of human observers with normal color vision. When using these functions, two questions arise. Are they an ...
    • MRI / PET nonrigid breast-image registration using skin fiducial markers 

      Krol, Andrzej; Unlu, Mehmet; Baum, Karl; Mandel, James; Lee, Wei; Coman, Ioana; Lipson, Edward; Feiglin, David (Physica Medica, 2006)
      We propose a finite-element method (FEM) deformable breast model that does not require elastic breast data for nonrigid PET/ MRI breast image registration. The model is applicable only if the stress conditions in the ...
    • Considering the surround in device-independent color imaging 

      Fairchild, Mark (Wiley InterScience: Color Research & Application, 2007-03-14)
      When viewing images, the relative luminance of the surround has a profound impact on the apparent contrast of the image. For this reason, photographic transparencies intended for projection in a darkened room are produced ...
    • A Multiscale model of adaptation and spatial vision for realistic image display 

      Pattanaik, Sumanta; Ferwerda, James; Fairchild, Mark; Greenberg, Donald (Association for Computing Machinery: Proceedings of SIGGRAPH, 1998)
      In this paper we develop a computational model of adaptation and spatial vision for realistic tone reproduction. The model is based on a multiscale representation of pattern, luminance, and color processing in the human ...
    • Simulation study of changes in ultrasound speckle statistics with the system point spread function 

      Rao, Navalgund; Aubry, W. (Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1994)
      The intensity point signal-to-noise ratio, SNRI, characterizing the ultrasound speckle statistics, depends on the tissue scattering microstructure and the imaging systems point spread function. Both should be described in ...

      Fairchild, Mark (Wiley InterScience: Color & Research Application, 2001-10-08)
      The CIE 1997 Interim Color Appearance Model (Simple Version), abbreviated CIECAM97s, was proposed by CIE TC1-34 in 1997 in response to the needs of the imaging industry for a single, practically-applicable, color appearance ...
    • Pulse coding in medical ultrasound: Some possible applications 

      Rao, Navalgund; Yang, D.; Raman, R.; Chandaroy, P.; Venkatraman, S. (Acoustical Imaging, 1995)
      Pulse coding and pulse compression techniques have been used extensively in radar, sonar, non-destructive testing and seismic imaging1-4. Its application in medical imaging has been sparse and few5-8. Possible reasons ...
    • On Understanding the relationship between ultrasound speckle and the scattering microstructure 

      Rao, Navalgund; Venkataraman, S.; Helguera, Maria (Acoustical Imaging, 1997)
      Recent studies on the statistics of the envelope of the ultrasound echo signal from a random scattering medium suggest that the statistical moments of the signal may carry quantitative information about the scattering ...
    • An empirical examination of the pricing of seasoned equity offerings: a test of the signalling hypothesis 

      Karim, Khondkar; Gara, Stepgen; Rutledge, Robert (2000-06)
      This paper tests the predictions of Signaling Theory against the competing Price Irrelevance Hypothesis (Eckbo and Masulis 1992). Signaling Theory suggests that a security offer's issue price provides a signal of the quality ...

      Joseph, Daniel; Ettlie, John (2004)
      Nicholas G. Carr, as editor-at-large for the Harvard Business Review, authored the provocative editorial piece "IT Doesn't Matter" (Carr, 2003). He compared the development of information technology with the development ...
    • The ethics of web design: ensuring access for everyone 

      Cook, Jack; Cook, Laura (2004)
