Pandora: Description of a Painting Database for Art Movement Recognition with Baselines and Perspectives
To facilitate computer analysis of visual art, in the form of paintings, we
introduce Pandora (Paintings Dataset for Recognizing the Art movement)
database, a collection of digitized paintings labelled with respect to the
artistic movement. Noting that the set of databases available as benchmarks for
evaluation is highly reduced and most existing ones are limited in variability
and number of images, we propose a novel large scale dataset of digital
paintings. The database consists of more than 7700 images from 12 art
movements. Each genre is illustrated by a number of images varying from 250 to
nearly 1000. We investigate how local and global features and classification
systems are able to recognize the art movement. Our experimental results
suggest that accurate recognition is achievable by a combination of various
categories.To facilitate computer analysis of visual art, in the form of

Influence of the electrochemical treatment on the magnetic properties of nanowires
Abstract: Synthesis of nanomaterials is one of the most researched areas. Nanomaterials are at the core of all modern nano-devices. The reduced size helps electronics to have increased performance, low energy consumption and low heat output. Properties of nanomaterials are mainly related to the involved large surface to volume ratio. Nanomaterials can be fabricated using different methods. One of the intensely used, inexpensive and with high degree of reproducibility is electrochemistry (EC), which can be used either to destroy (corrosion) or to create (thin films, nanoparticles, nanowires (NWs), etc.) materials. In this paper we focus on the effect of the electrochemical treatment (EchT) on the structural and magnetic properties of nanowires. Ni NWs were synthesized and analyzed by SQUID to study the magnetic properties induced by the EchT of the Au substrate. Ni NWs were synthesized in a gold-coated PCTE membrane using template synthesis. The EchT induced structural modifications of the Au substrate and further modifications of NWs magnetism.
