Markers of polycode objectification of precedent phenomena in a semiotically complicated text by T. V. Marchenko

“…The degree of manifestation of the marker varies from maximum – quotation, to allusion – an obvious hint, and then to reminiscence – an implicit reference to a precedent phenomenon. The visual code conveys images and elements, among which the representatives of precedence are directly images (graphic images, photographs, images of stereotypical situations preserved in collective consciousness) and their individual elements (composition, form, color scheme, etc.), graphic means, font etc. …”

A hyperspectral approach for retrieving inherent optical properties, phytoplankton pigments, and associated uncertainties from non-water absorption by Brice Grunert, Audrey Ciochetto, Audrey Ciochetto, Colleen Mouw

“…Ocean color datasets collected by airborne and satellite sensors provide platforms capable of observing distinct ecosystem features at requisite spatial and temporal scales; however, many of the tools used, including novel tools developed for hyperspectral datasets, rely on assumptions to retrieve component optical properties that are tied to specific ecosystem traits, such as phytoplankton pigments and spectral features affiliated with carbon concentration and composition. The original Derivative Analysis and Iterative Spectral Evaluation of Absorption (DAISEA) algorithm was produced as a means to identify spectral features in hyperspectral absorption spectra free of explicit spectral assumptions in an effort to bypass these limitations. …”
