Van Doorn, A.J. (author), De Ridder, H. (author), Koenderink, J.J. (author)Pictorial relief depends strongly on “cues” in the image. For isoluminant renderings some cues are missing, namely all information that is related to luminance contrast (e.g., shading, atmospheric perspective). It has been suggested that spatial discrimination and especially pictorial space suffer badly in isoluminant conditions. We have...conference paper 2005

Cruz, P.J.S. (author), Veer, F.A. (author), Carvalho, P.L.L. (author)The application of glass in contemporary architecture explores perceptual phenomenon that intentionally change the way we experience space. SANAA'S recent work uses glass in a radical way, proposing a renewed approach to transparency. The Toledo Glass Pavilion, with most spaces defined by glass walls, presents an intense visual experience. The...conference paper 2010

Breen, J.L.H. (author)If we wish to reach a deeper, more objective understanding of the phenomena of Architectural and Environmental Design, we need to develop and apply working methods that allow us to imaginatively analyse and consequently envision the formal issues which are at (inter)play: demonstrating their workings and effects in the ‘Real World’. First of all...conference paper 2013

Kuijsters, A. (author), Redi, J.A. (author), De Ruyter, B. (author), Heynderickx, I.E.J.R. (author)The ACE project aims at developing an adaptive ambience creation platform which can improve the well-being of elderly people in care centers. The system will contain a sensing platform, which measures and analyses the context in a room and an ambience creation platform, which creates ambiences with proven effectiveness for improving the mood of...conference paper 2011

Bittermann, M.S. (author), Ciftcioglu, O. (author)A method for quantifying ambient surveillance is presented, which is based on probabilistic-possibilistic perception. The human surveillance of a scene through observing camera sensed images on a monitor is modeled in three steps. First immersion of the observer is simulated by modeling perception of the scene from the camera locations using...conference paper 2013

Varotto, S.F. (author), Glerum, A. (author), Stathopoulos, A. (author), Bierlaire, M. (author), Longo, G. (author)Travel behaviour models typically rely on data afflicted by errors, in perception (e.g., over/under-estimation by traveller) and measurement (e.g., software or researcher imputation error). Such errors are shown to have a relevant impact on model outputs. So far a comprehensive framework to deal with different types of biases related to travel...conference paper 2015

De Ridder, H. (author), Pont, S.C. (author)In the past decades perceptual (or perceived) image quality has been one of the most important criteria for evaluating digitally processed image and video content. With the growing popularity of new media like stereoscopic displays there is a tendency to replace image quality with viewing experience as the ultimate criterion. Adopting such a...conference paper 2012

Van Doorn, A.J. (author), Wagemans, J. (author), De Ridder, H. (author), Koenderink, J.J. (author)A "picture" is a at object covered with pigments in a certain pattern. Human observers, when looking "into" a picture (photograph, painting, drawing, . . . say) often report to experience a three dimensional "pictorial space." This space is a mental entity, apparently triggered by so called pictorial cues. The latter are sub-structures of color...conference paper 2011

Setyawan, I. (author), Lagendijk, L. (author)We present in this paper the results of our study on the human perception of geometric distortions in images. The ultimate goal of this study is to devise an objective measurement scheme for geometric distortions in images, which should have a good correspondence to human perception of the distortions. The study is divided into two parts. The...conference paper 2004

The main objective of this grands ensembles study is to produce knowledge about their architectural and urban atmosphere characteristic. The atmosphere...conference paper 2011

Magnier, L.B.M. (author), Mugge, R. (author)There is consensus that product lifetimes are generally decreasing. To create a sustainable society, the circular economy promotes slowing down the use of resources by lengthening product lifetimes. This is especially important for electronic products that are energy-intensive in their production phase and create vast amounts of waste after use....conference paper 2022

However, this flexibility also makes spreadsheets difficult to understand. Textual documentation can address this issue, yet for supporting...conference paper 2016

van Hagen, Mark (author), van Oort, N. (author)This paper describes two perspectives to improve the passenger experience. The passenger satisfaction pyramid is introduced, consisting of the base of the pyramid (dissatisfiers) focusing on time well saved and the top of the pyramid (satisfiers) aiming at time well spent. The challenge in planning and design of public transport services is to...conference paper 2018

Jansen, S.J.T. (author)In the Netherlands, the extraction of natural gas from the ground has led to soil subsidence and the occurrence of earthquakes. These earthquakes cause physical damage to buildings and also lead to psychological problems and decreased housing satisfaction.

Crevels, Eric (author)This essay aims to show that in many of the theories that fundament material culture and architectural experience, labor is implied in the constitution of material and, although seldom directly addressed, it is a determining dimension of materiality.
