Wijntjes, M.W.A. (author), De Ridder, H. (author)Whereas the 17th century painter Canaletto was a master in linear perspective of the architectural elements, he seems to have had considerable difficulty with linear perspective of shadows. A common trick to avoid shadow perspective problems is to set the (solar) illumination direction parallel to the projection screen. We investigated in one...conference paper 2014

Van Egmond, R. (author), De Ridder, H. (author), Pappas, T.N. (author), Silva, P.M. (author)We investigate the effect of contrast enhancement on the subjective roughness of visual textures. Our analysis is based on subjective experiments with seventeen images from the CUReT database in three variants: original, synthesized textures, and contrast-enhanced synthesized textures. In Experiment 1, participants were asked to adjust the...conference paper 2014

Zhuang, J. (author), Staszewski, R.B. (author)This paper presents an all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) architecture in a new light that allows it to significantly save power through complexity reduction of its phase locking and detection mechanisms. The natural predictive nature of the ADPLL to estimate next edge occurrence of the reference clock is exploited here to reduce the timing...journal article 2014

Rekveldt, M.T. (author), Plomp, J. (author), Van Well, A.A. (author)A new variant of Larmor neutron diffraction, applying only a single precession arm in the initial beam, is proposed. The single arm, together with the polarizer and analyser and possible rotators, are mounted in front of the sample. The great advantage with respect to the case with another precession arm in the reflected beam is that magnetic...journal article 2014
