Test rules:
-
The test is worth 100 points.
-
It is closed book, closed notes.
-
You are responsible for:
(1) what is in all handouts,
(2) what was said in class,
(3) what you have done in the projects.
-
The test is over promptly at 10:50.
Only the tests that have been turned in by then will be graded.
-
No make-up tests.
-
I do re-grades, but the entire test gets re-graded
The test can potentially cover any of the following topics:
-
Color: RGB, HSV, LAB, CMYK color spaces.
Eye: rods and cones, acuity, color sensitivity.
Luminance equation.
Simultaneous contrast, Mach bands, afterimages.
Color gamuts.
NTSC video.
Different scales used for mapping scalar values to color (rainbow, heated object, etc.).
Rules of thumb when using color in scientific and engineering visualization.
-
Visualization data definitions:
data dimension,
spatial dimension.
-
Seven steps to creating a visualization.
-

Basic idea behind how it works.
The data model: fields, components.
Think of pudding cups in the bucket.
