Image protection and organizing the associated processes is based on the assumption that an image is a stochastic signal. This results in the transition of the classic encryption methods into the image perspective. However the image is some specific signal that, in addition to the typical informativeness (informative data), also involves visual informativeness. The visual informativeness implies additional and new challenges for the issue of protection. As it involves the highly sophisticated modern image processing techniques, this informativeness enables unauthorized access. In fact, the organization of the attack on an encrypted image is possible in two ways: through the traditional hacking of encryption methods or through the methods of visual image processing (filtering methods, contour separation, etc.). Although the methods mentioned above do not fully reproduce the encrypted image, they can provide an opportunity to obtain some information from the image. In this regard, the encryption methods, when used in images, have another task - the complete noise of the encrypted image.

    Fractals a Fractal Is a Shape That Seem to Have the Same Structure No Matter How Far You Zoom In, Like the figure Below

    Fractals A fractal is a shape that seem to have the same structure no matter how far you zoom in, like the figure below. Sometimes it's only part of the shape that repeats. In the figure below, called an Apollonian Gasket, no part looks like the whole shape, but the parts near the edges still repeat when you zoom in. Today you'll learn how to construct a few fractals: • The Snowflake • The Sierpinski Carpet • The Sierpinski Triangle • The Pythagoras Tree • The Dragon Curve After you make a few of those, try constructing some fractals of your own design! There's more on the back. ! Challenge Problems In order to solve some of the more difficult problems today, you'll need to know about the geometric series. In a geometric series, we add up a sequence of terms, 1 each of which is a fixed multiple of the previous one. For example, if the ratio is 2 , then a geometric series looks like 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 + + · + · · + ::: 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 12 13 = 1 + + + + ::: 2 2 2 The geometric series has the incredibly useful property that we have a good way of 1 figuring out what the sum equals. Let's let r equal the common ratio (like 2 above) and n be the number of terms we're adding up. Our series looks like 1 + r + r2 + ::: + rn−2 + rn−1 If we multiply this by 1 − r we get something rather simple. (1 − r)(1 + r + r2 + ::: + rn−2 + rn−1) = 1 + r + r2 + ::: + rn−2 + rn−1 − ( r + r2 + ::: + rn−2 + rn−1 + rn ) = 1 − rn Thus 1 − rn 1 + r + r2 + ::: + rn−2 + rn−1 = : 1 − r If we're clever, we can use this formula to compute the areas and perimeters of some of the shapes we create.

    Curriculum Units by Fellows of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute 2009 Volume V: Evolutionary Medicine Math Morphing Proximate and Evolutionary Mechanisms Curriculum Unit 09.05.09 by Kenneth William Spinka Introduction Background Essential Questions Lesson Plans Website Student Resources Glossary Of Terms Bibliography Appendix Introduction An important theoretical development was Nikolaas Tinbergen's distinction made originally in ethology between evolutionary and proximate mechanisms; Randolph M. Nesse and George C. Williams summarize its relevance to medicine: All biological traits need two kinds of explanation: proximate and evolutionary. The proximate explanation for a disease describes what is wrong in the bodily mechanism of individuals affected Curriculum Unit 09.05.09 1 of 27 by it. An evolutionary explanation is completely different. Instead of explaining why people are different, it explains why we are all the same in ways that leave us vulnerable to disease. Why do we all have wisdom teeth, an appendix, and cells that if triggered can rampantly multiply out of control? [1] A fractal is generally "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole," a property called self-similarity. The term was coined by Beno?t Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractus meaning "broken" or "fractured." A mathematical fractal is based on an equation that undergoes iteration, a form of feedback based on recursion. http://www.kwsi.com/ynhti2009/image01.html A fractal often has the following features: 1. It has a fine structure at arbitrarily small scales.
  • Understanding the Mandelbrot and Julia Set

    Understanding the Mandelbrot and Julia Set

    Understanding the Mandelbrot and Julia Set Jake Zyons Wood August 31, 2015 Introduction Fractals infiltrate the disciplinary spectra of set theory, complex algebra, generative art, computer science, chaos theory, and more. Fractals visually embody recursive structures endowing them with the ability of nigh infinite complexity. The Sierpinski Triangle, Koch Snowflake, and Dragon Curve comprise a few of the more widely recognized iterated function fractals. These recursive structures possess an intuitive geometric simplicity which makes their creation, at least at a shallow recursive depth, easy to do by hand with pencil and paper. The Mandelbrot and Julia set, on the other hand, allow no such convenience. These fractals are part of the class: escape-time fractals, and have only really entered mathematicians’ consciousness in the late 1970’s[1]. The purpose of this paper is to clearly explain the logical procedures of creating escape-time fractals. This will include reviewing the necessary math for this type of fractal, then specifically explaining the algorithms commonly used in the Mandelbrot Set as well as its variations. By the end, the careful reader should, without too much effort, feel totally at ease with the underlying principles of these fractals. What Makes The Mandelbrot Set a set? 1 Figure 1: Black and white Mandelbrot visualization The Mandelbrot Set truly is a set in the mathematica sense of the word. A set is a collection of anything with a specific property, the Mandelbrot Set, for instance, is a collection of complex numbers which all share a common property (explained in Part II). All complex numbers can in fact be labeled as either a member of the Mandelbrot set, or not.
  • Exploring the Effect of Direction on Vector-Based Fractals

    Exploring the Effect of Direction on Vector-Based Fractals

    Exploring the Effect of Direction on Vector-Based Fractals Magdy Ibrahim and Robert J. Krawczyk College of Architecture Illinois Institute of Technology 3360 S. State St. Chicago, IL, 60616, USA Email: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This paper investigates an approach to begin the study of fractals in architectural design. Vector-based fractals are studied to determine if the modification of vector direction in either the generator or the initiator will develop alternate fractal forms. The Koch Snowflake is used as the demonstrating fractal. Introduction A fractal is an object or quantity that displays self-similarity on all scales. The object need not exhibit exactly the same structure at all scales, but the same “type” of structures must appear on all scales [7]. Fractals were first discussed by Mandelbrot in the 1970s [4], but the idea was identified as early as 1925. Fractals have been investigated for their visual qualities as art, their relationship to explain natural processes, music, medicine, and in mathematics [5]. Javier Barrallo classified fractals [2] into six main groups depending on their type: 1. Fractals derived from standard geometry by using iterative transformations on an initial common figure. 2. IFS (Iterated Function Systems), this is a type of fractal introduced by Michael Barnsley. 3. Strange attractors. 4. Plasma fractals. Created with techniques like fractional Brownian motion. 5. L-Systems, also called Lindenmayer systems, were not invented to create fractals but to model cellular growth and interactions. 6. Fractals created by the iteration of complex polynomials. From the mathematical point of view, we can classify fractals into three major categories.
