John Clute, for The Encyclopedia of Fantasy ( in which capitalized typesetting represents literary themes and categories for that book ), wrote: " an ANIMAL FANTASY about a philosophical gull who is profoundly affected by FLYING, but who demands too much of his community and is cast out by it.

In 1974 / 1975, he wrote the ANIMAL software, which self-replicated on UNIVAC 1100 machines: this is considered to be one of the first computer viruses.

* ANIMAL is written by John Walker for the UNIVAC 1108.

Because CCD imagers are linear, image processing may be used to subtract away the effects of light pollution, which has increased the popularity of astrophotography in urban areas.

DSP includes subfields like: audio and speech signal processing, sonar and radar signal processing, sensor array processing, spectral estimation, statistical signal processing, digital image processing, signal processing for communications, control of systems, biomedical signal processing, seismic data processing, etc.

The main applications of DSP are audio signal processing, audio compression, digital image processing, video compression, speech processing, speech recognition, digital communications, RADAR, SONAR, seismology and biomedicine.

Specific examples are speech compression and transmission in digital mobile phones, room correction of sound in hi-fi and sound reinforcement applications, weather forecasting, economic forecasting, seismic data processing, analysis and control of industrial processes, medical imaging such as CAT scans and MRI, MP3 compression, computer graphics, image manipulation, hi-fi loudspeaker crossovers and equalization, and audio effects for use with electric guitar amplifiers.

This type of compositing interface allows great flexibility, including the ability to modify the parameters of an earlier image processing step " in context " ( while viewing the final composite ).

Such systems are useful for modeling, for example, image processing.

For each picture frame, the 6502 writes graphics commands for the DVG into a defined area of RAM ( the vector RAM ), and then asks the DVG to draw the corresponding vector image on the screen.

The introduction of simple auxiliary terms, due to C. F. Gauss ( Dioptrische Untersuchungen, Göttingen, 1841 ), named the focal lengths and focal planes, permits the determination of the image of any object for any system ( see lens ).

Math., 1858 ) and Ernst Abbe showed that the properties of these reproductions, i. e. the relative position and magnitude of the images, are not special properties of optical systems, but necessary consequences of the supposition ( in Abbe ) of the reproduction of all points of a space in image points ( Maxwell assumes a less general hypothesis ), and are independent of the manner in which the reproduction is effected.

We receive, therefore, in no single intercepting plane behind the system, as, for example, a focusing screen, an image of the object point ; on the other hand, in each of two planes lines O ' and O " are separately formed ( in neighboring planes ellipses are formed ), and in a plane between O ' and O " a circle of least confusion.

Although the description sitting-on ( graph 1 ) is more abstract than the graphic image of a cat sitting on a mat ( picture 1 ), the delineation of abstract things from concrete things is somewhat ambiguous ; this ambiguity or vagueness is characteristic of abstraction.

Whilst providing a projected image, the technique has limited resolution ( 2-2. 5 nm ), due to both quantum mechanical effects and lateral variation in electron velocity.

As with digital photocopiers and multifunction printers ( MFPs ), laser printers employ a xerographic printing process but differ from analog photocopiers in that the image is produced by the direct scanning of a laser beam across the printer's photoreceptor.

The image may represent electrical waveforms ( oscilloscope ), pictures ( television, computer monitor ), radar targets and others.

She sent her students a definition of the Trinity ( circa 1898 ), which read in part: " Jesus in the flesh was the prophet or wayshower to Life, Truth, and Love, and out of the flesh Jesus was the Christ, the spiritual idea, or image and likeness of God.

Rendering is the process of generating an image from a model ( or models in what collectively could be called a scene file ), by means of computer programs.

Some early sources refer to pall mall being played over a large distance ( as in golf ), however an image in Strutt's 1801 book clearly shows a croquet-like ground billiards game ( balls on ground, hoop, bats and peg ) being played over a, garden-sized distance.

In 1990 Alston's bronze bust of Martin Luther King Jr. ( 1970 ), became the first image of an African American displayed in the White House.

* Chirality ( chemistry ), a property of molecules having a non-superimposable mirror image

* Chirality ( mathematics ), the property of a figure not being identical to its mirror image

* Chirality ( physics ), when a phenomenon is not identical to its mirror image

T2 weighted magnetic resonance scan image showing bilaterally symmetrical hyperintensities in Caudate nucleus ( small, thin arrow ), Putamen ( long arrow ), with sparing of Globus Pallidus ( broad arrow ), suggestive of Extrapontine myelinolysis.

For these reasons, rasterization is usually the approach of choice when interactive rendering is required ; however, the pixel-by-pixel approach can often produce higher-quality images and is more versatile because it does not depend on as many assumptions about the image as rasterization.

These purposes include interactive 3D graphics applications such as demoscene productions, computer and video games, and image rendering.

The exhibit offers psychedelic-themed interactive experiences: Visitors can, with a wave of their arm, spark fluorescent displays of jellies and corals ; create a digital jellyfish and launch it into a virtual ocean with creations made by other visitors ; prompt digital jellies to “ dance ” with them ; and become part of a kaleidoscopic image.

* Floating Interactive Display: at least two commercial systems ( Heliodisplay and FogScreen ) offer interactive " floating interfaces " which display an image projected in mid-air but can be interacted with by finger similar to a touch screen.

Best known for her use of interactive and algorithmic logic as part of the compositional process, Spiegel worked with Buchla and Electronic Music Laboratories synthesizers and subsequently many early, often experimental and prototype-level music and image generation systems, including GROOVE system ( 1973-78 ), Alles Machine ( 1977 ) and Max Mathews's RTSked and John R.

Once manufacturers introduced modems with trellis modulation, transmission rates increased to the point where interactive transfer of multimedia over the telephone became feasible ( a 200 kilobyte image and a 5 megabyte song could be downloaded in less than 1 minute and 30 minutes, respectively ).

Gauch and Pizer studied the complementary problem of ridges and valleys at multiple scales and developed a tool for interactive image segmentation based on multi-scale watersheds.

His main research contribution is the co-discovery of spiral waves in a solar-size accretion disk, pioneering analysis determining mass ratios of black hole systems using the Keck-I telescope, contribution to accretion disc physics and finally extensive analysis and image processing using the Doppler tomography technique with applications on interactive binaries resolving emission components such as the inner face of the companion star, the gas stream and the impact region of the gas stream on the accretion disk ( bright spot ).

Around this time his work became increasingly focused on the relationship between sound and image, using interactivity, gestural interface and generative, interactive and aleatoric music.

The name Imaris has been derived from three words: " image " analysis, the primary function of the software, " Marius " the name of the innovator and Bitplane co-founder, and finally, the " Personal Iris ", the name of the hardware that initially enabled interactive 3D imaging.

Instead of 3D computer graphics an interactive image flow is created using premade video clips, often produced by overlaying computer-generated material with 12-inch videodisc images ( where the setup is known as " level III " interactive video, to distinguish it from " level I " or videodisc-only, and " level II " requiring specially made videodisc players that support handheld-remote-based interactivity without using an external computer setup ).
