Towards a New Colour Appearance Model for Self-luminous Stimuli
(Illuminating Engineering Institute of Japan, 2017-03)
Based on the experimental visual data obtained for self-luminous stimuli surrounded by a dark background,a new colour appearance model (CAM) for unrelated self-luminous stimuli, CAM15u, was previouslydeveloped. To extend ...
Differential predation by mammals and birds: Implications for egg-colour polymorphism in a nomadic breeding seabird
(Oxford University Press, 2002-02)
Selection for crypsis in varying environments has long been established as the main evolutionary force promoting the huge variation in avian egg coloration. In several avian species, variation in egg coloration exists, but ...
Chromatic variability and sexual dimorphism in the rocky lizard phymaturus verdugo
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2018-06)
The genus Phymaturus comprises lizards that inhabit cold environments at high altitudes or latitudes. Phymaturus verdugo Cei and Videla, 2003 is characterized by cephalic melanism, which is interpreted as a character present ...
Microbiological, Colour and Sensory Properties of Fresh Beef Steaks in Low Carbon Monoxide Concentration

Variation in multicomponent recognition cues alters egg rejection decisions: A test of the optimal acceptance threshold hypothesis
(The Royal Society, 2019-04)
The optimal acceptance threshold hypothesis provides a general predictive framework for testing behavioural responses to discrimination challenges. Decision-makers should respond to a stimulus when the perceived difference ...
Analysis from avian visual perspective reveals plumage colour differences among females of capuchino seedeaters (Sporophila)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2010-11)
Females of the closely related capuchino seedeaters are difficult to distinguish from one another based on human visual perception of colouration and morphology. We examined plumage colour differences among females of four ...
Geographic variation in flower color: spectral composition versus perception of pollinators
(2013)
Geographic variation of flower color can be the result of selective processes mediated by pollinators. Changes in flower color can steer visual attention of pollinators in different ways, thus influencing enhancing plants ...
Perception of quality and complexity in wine and their links to varietal typicality: An investigation involving Pinot noir wine and professional tasters
(Elsevier, 2020)
Quality and complexity are abstract terms employed frequently to describe a wine’s overall attributes. In the
present study, we investigated: (i) attributes driving wine professionals’ judgments of quality and complexity ...
