  2. LMS color space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LMS_color_space

    LMS (long, medium, short), is a color space which represents the response of the three types of cones of the human eye, named for their responsivity (sensitivity) peaks at long, medium, and short wavelengths. The numerical range is generally not specified, except that the lower end is generally bounded by zero.

  3. Blue Waters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Waters

    Blue Waters was a petascale supercomputer operated by the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.On August 8, 2007, the National Science Board approved a resolution which authorized the National Science Foundation to fund "the acquisition and deployment of the world's most powerful leadership-class supercomputer."

  4. Color depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_depth

    Some systems placed a color cube in the palette for a direct-color system (and so all programs would use the same palette). Usually fewer levels of blue were provided than others, since the normal human eye is less sensitive to the blue component than to either red or green (two thirds of the eye's receptors process the longer wavelengths [11 ...

  5. Luminous efficiency function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficiency_function

    Color blindness changes the sensitivity of the eye as a function of wavelength. For people with protanopia , the peak of the eye's response is shifted toward the short-wave part of the spectrum (approximately 540 nm), while for people with deuteranopia , there is a slight shift in the peak of the spectrum, to about 560 nm.

  6. Purkinje effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purkinje_effect

    An animated sequence of simulated appearances of a red flower (of a zonal geranium) and background foliage under photopic, mesopic, and scotopic conditions. The Purkinje effect or Purkinje phenomenon (Czech: [ˈpurkɪɲɛ] ⓘ; sometimes called the Purkinje shift, often pronounced / p ər ˈ k ɪ n dʒ i /) [1] is the tendency for the peak luminance sensitivity of the eye to shift toward the ...

  7. Sensitivity analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_analysis

    Sensitivity analysis is the study of how the uncertainty in the output of a mathematical model or system (numerical or otherwise) can be divided and allocated to different sources of uncertainty in its inputs. [1] [2] This involves estimating sensitivity indices that quantify the influence of an input or group of inputs on the output.

  8. Blue Marble Geographics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Marble_Geographics

    Blue Marble incorporated all of the functionality of the Blue Marble Desktop including the Geographic Transformer, Translator and Spatial Connect products into the new Geographic Calculator. This did away with the confusing versioning and introduced an easier-to-follow annual naming convention with one or two service pack updates between releases.

  9. Color vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

    Photopic relative brightness sensitivity of the human visual system as a function of wavelength (luminosity function) The visible light spectrum ranges from about 380 to 740 nanometers. Spectral colors (colors that are produced by a narrow band of wavelengths) such as red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and violet can be found in this range ...
