RGB and CYMK are two major coloring schemes currently available for light colors and pigment colors, respectively. Both systems use letter-based color codes that require a large range of values to represent different colors. The problem is that these two systems are hard to use for manipulating any operations involving…

The constituent parts of a quantum computer are inherently vulnerable to errors. To this end, we have developed quantum error-correcting codes to protect quantum information from noise. However, discovering codes that are capable of a universal set of computational operations with the minimal cost in quantum resources…

'Kathleen Foley'] People interpret abstract meanings from colors, which makes color a useful perceptual feature for visual communication. This process is complicated, however, because there is seldom a one-to-one correspondence between colors and meanings. One color can be associated with many different concepts…

introductory mechanics Authors: ['Becky Thomas' 'Sandra Carr' 'Siming Guo'] We designed three color-coding schemes to identify related information across representations and to differentiate distinct information within a representation in slidebased instruction for calculus-based introductory mechanics. We found that…

Many people with severely limited muscle control can only communicate through augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) systems with a small number of buttons. In this paper, we present the design for Color-Code, which is an AAC system with two buttons that uses Bayesian inference to determine what the user…

We propose a new strategy to decode color codes, which is based on the projection of the error onto three surface codes. This provides a method to transform every decoding algorithm of surface codes into a decoding algorithm of color codes. Applying this idea to a family of hexagonal color codes, with the perfect…

'Cristian Fàbrega' 'Andreas Waag' 'Joan Daniel Prades'] Color QR Codes are often generated to encode digital information, but one also could use colors or to allocate colors in a QR Code to act as a color calibration chart. In this dataset, we present several thousand QR Codes images generated with two different…

Adaptation and Interpolation Authors: ['Xiaofeng Cong' 'Jing Zhang' 'Yeying Jin' 'Junming Hou' 'Yu Zhao' 'Jie Gui' 'James T. Kwok' 'Yuan Tang'] Abstract—Underwater images often suffer from quality degradation due to absorption and scattering effects. Most existing underwater image enhancement algorithms produce a…

Tracing the fate of individual cells and their progeny remains a challenging task. While imaging-based fate-mapping provides spatial information, it generally lacks complexity due to limited label diversity, resulting in diminished capture of comprehensive lineages and fate maps. Here, we introduce ‘Polytope’, an…

'José Luis Vázquez-Poletti' 'Nikolaos Schetakis' 'Konstantinos Stavrakakis' 'Alessio Di Iorio' 'María Estefanía Avilés Mariño'] This paper introduces a novel approach for encoding information in PDF documents or similar files. The proposed encoding involves a dual-step method: firstly, the information is encoded in…

Code editors are written by and for developers. They come with a large set of default and implicit choices in terms of layout, typography, colorization and interaction that hardly change from one editor to the other. It is not clear if these implicit choices derive from the ignorance of alternatives or if they derive…

Despite the promise of self-driving laboratories to accelerate discovery, their widespread implementation is hindered by prohibitive cost and technical complexity. We introduce BrickSDLab, a fully functional self-driving lab platform built entirely from LEGO® components, designed to bridge this accessibility gap.…

Quantitative data is frequently represented using color, yet designing effective color mappings is a challenging task, requiring one to balance perceptual standards with personal color preference. Current design tools either overwhelm novices with complexity or offer limited customization options. We present…

To interact with real-world objects, any effective visual system must jointly code the unique features defining each object. Despite decades of neuroscience research, we still lack a firm grasp on how the primate brain binds visual features. Here we apply a novel network-based stimulus-rich representational similarity…

The light entering our eyes is the product of the illumination and the surface reflectance of an object. Although this light changes considerably when the illumination changes, we are usually able to perceive objects as stable in color. To investigate how the brain achieves color constancy, we measured BOLD fMRI while…

Coloured indicators, whether solution or paper based, are often used in laboratory courses and academic/industrial research as a qualitative method to test important experimental markers. While useful, these tools present challenges to those with colour vision deficiency (CVD), who are unable to interpret the same…

Colour is a defining feature of many objects, playing a crucial role in our ability to rapidly recognise things in the world around us and make categorical distinctions. For example, colour is a useful cue when distinguishing lemons from limes or blackberries from raspberries. That means our representation of many…

Photoswitches exhibiting large structural variation, visible light responsiveness, and multifunctionality are important for both chemistry and bionics research. However, beyond the limited variety of functional motifs, removing high-energy UV light in photoactivatable systems remains a challenge. Herein, we report a…

Synthetic food colors are added in different food items. These colors directly affect consumer food selection and acceptance. Synthetic colors on the basis of solubility are categorized into acidic (permitted) and basic (non-permitted). The present study was conducted to check the synthetic color present in branded and…
