How Scientists Add Color to the Universe's Canvas

Originally Published 1 year ago — by Big Think

Astronomical images often use colorization techniques to convey information not visible to the human eye. Scientists assign colors to different wavelengths of light captured by telescopes like Hubble and JWST, which may include non-visible spectra such as infrared or X-rays. This process helps highlight specific features, such as the presence of certain elements or energetic phenomena, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of celestial objects. The choice of colors is not fixed and can vary depending on the data and the features scientists wish to emphasize.

Reviving Black and White Films with AI Colorization Algorithm.

Originally Published 2 years ago — by Neuroscience News

Researchers at Graz University of Technology have developed an AI-based algorithm that can realistically colorize historical black-and-white films. The algorithm combines interactive and automated coloring techniques with deep learning technology, allowing for a predominantly automatic, yet fully user-controlled coloring process. The software can generate and add artificial noise to the films after restoration and coloring to maintain authenticity. The core algorithm is freely available, but efficient use requires software based on it, such as the "Diamant film colorizer" developed by project partner HS-Art.
