We are happy to inform that the abstract submitted by CP7 researcher Melissa Olen has been accepted for an oral presentation at the Image Conference 2014 in Berlin, Germany. This oral presentation will provide Melissa with an opportunity to submit a full paper to their journal “The International Journal of the Image” which is a peer reviewed journal.
On Thursday June 26, 2014, CP7 researcher Teun Baar presented his ‘thesis in five minutes’ at his university Télécom ParisTech. The presentation was an exercise to present the context and the core of his thesis, in a 5 minute PhD pitch format. Teun decided to present his thesis in French, as an extra exercise to present in the language he became more familiar with during his recent work in France and to get more familiar with the French vocabulary concerning his thesis project. The presentation was received well with compliments for the clarity and the French. The video of the interview can be watched on the Teun’s private youtube page or on his linked in page.
The fifth training event (TE5) was held at the University of the West of England, Bristol, UK and the National Gallery, London, UK, on April-May (27 – 2) 2014. The event was attended by all the research fellows as part of the training program in the CP7.0 project.
The training focused on exploring beyond the boundaries of the current state of digital printing and colour management, with emphasis on print application and knowledge transferability between the arts and sciences. For more details please click here.
We are happy to announce that CP7 researcher Teun Baar at OCÉ had a successful mid term evaluation on April 1, 2014, for the research and training done till now in this PhD. The aim of his work done till now was to control additional channels to current printing systems that are introduced next to the standard CMYK colour channels, and to create a system to translate multi-dimensional image data to actual printouts. Such multi-channel images contain, for example, information of spectral colour, 3D surface or relief, or local reflectance functions. His work mainly did concentrate on the extra dimension being the z-axis, by controlling the surface modulation of the printout, influencing the reflection properties of the print surface. In the near future, the work should result in a journal publication.
We are happy to inform that 3 papers submitted by the CP7 researchers are accepted at the IARIGAI 2014 conference to be held in Swansea, UK, in September, 2014. For more details please click here.
CP7 researcher Radovan Slavuj from GUC, Gjøvik visited associate partner Fraunhofer FOKUS for a 3 weeks secondments with the aim to work and collaborate with scientist Dr. Jeremie Gerhardt at FOKUS on inverse printer models and halftoning for multi-channel printing. Radovan’s research involves inverse printer models and integration with halftoning. Through this secondment Radovan focused on optimising these printer and halftoning models for multi-channel printing environment.
CP7 experienced researcher Steven Le Moan from TUD, Germany visited Gjøvik University College on a 3 week secondment to use the Colorlab’s equipment and expertise to make hyper spectral acquisitions of different scenes and objects with the aim to generate a spectral image database. Steven collaborated with researchers from Gjøvik University College (Dr. Sony George and PhD student Ruven Pillay) in acquiring the images. This secondment provided Steven with an opportunity to work and experience with hyper-spectral acquisitions and collaborate outside the CP7 project. In the near future, the work should result in a publication describing the database.
We are happy to announce that CP7 researcher G M Atiqur Rahaman atVoxvil has successfully defended his licentiate thesis on February 28, 2014 at Mid Sweden University , Faculty of Science, Technology and Media. This licentiate thesis is entitled “Image Analysis Approach for Modeling Color Predictions in Printing” and is in Natural Science. For more details please click here.
At ST&T/SPIE EI2014 conference, the fellow researchers participated in setting up a CP7.0 project demonstration table during the demonstration session on tuesday evening, February 4, 2014. This session, during the conference provided a unique networking opportunity, a time when attendees could see the latest research in action, compare commercial products and ask questions to technically knowledgeable demonstrators. For more details please click here.
After the special session at MMRMA conference in Electronic Imaging 2014 which was in San Francisco USA, CP7 consortium took the opportunity to visit the Stanford Center for Image Systems Engineering (SCIEN) at Stanford University campus. SCIEN is located at the David Packard Electrical Engineering department at Stanford University campus. For more details please click here.
