| Abstract | Summary form only given as follows. Visual simulation using computer graphics and virtual reality has attracted wide attention in machine vision. This paper proposes a method of modeling and visualizing pearls that will be the central technique of a pearl quality evaluation simulator. Pearls manifest a very specific optical phenomenon that is not dependent on the direction of the light source. To investigate this feature, we propose a physical model for multilayer film interference considering the multiple reflection in spherical bodies. The rendering algorithm has been configured from such representations of physical characteristics as interference, reflection and texture which correspond respectively to the sense of depth, brightness and grain that are the main evaluation factors obtained from psychological experiments. Further, in the process of image generation a psychological scale of the essential quality of a pearl we call the "pearl-like quality" is configured from portions of photos of real pearls. The images generated by the present method were evaluated based on a scale of psychological evaluation of "pearl-like quality" demonstrating thereby that not merely the generated images as a whole but the respective parts of images can present such essential quality of a pearl. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
