A few days ago I posted this to comp.windows.x, and while

I've flailed away until I'm blue (Azure? Cyan?) in the face, and
now I wonder if I'm not going about the problem the wrong way.

I'm working with 1-byte image data, where the byte values 
represent various signal levels. It is mighty convenient
to setup a smoothly-graduated 256-element color table (going,
say, from black through red, orange, & yellow to white), dump
the image to the screen, and have the data values automatically
correlate with color intensity. That is, I don't have to fritz
around with the data at all to get the kind of display I want.
In fact, the color table I construct _doesn't_ have 256
unique values -- more like 70 or 80 with a number of contiguous
duplicates.  

My new question is, is there some other convenient way of
mapping 8-bit values to a table of maybe 100->128 colors?  My
applications need to do this as quickly as possible, and I 
_don't_ want to lose my original data.

Any help, references, cogitation, or (ideally) source code
would be much appreciated.


Thanks.

	Isn't this just as simple as c = pi * d 

	If your short axis display minimum resolution is 600 pixels then the 
maximum diameter of a circle to be contained in it is also 600 pixels.
Then the number of pixels in the circumference should be (pi * 600) pixels and
the minumum radius would be of course 400 pixels.

There is a mail-based file server : netlib@ornl.gov
Send it a one-line message of  SEND INDEX
This will return a help file pretty quickly to you with an
index to all the libraries on the server. The one that will be of
use to you is the POLYHEDRA library. BTW leave the subject line
blank, even though I think it is ignored anyway.

To get an index of the polyhedra on the server, send the message :
SEND INDEX FROM POLYHEDRA
This will return you a list of all the polyhedra with their names.

For example, to get the data for the icosahedron, send the message :
SEND 4 FROM POLYHEDRA
(The polyhedra are numbered)
These files contain the vertex data and the face data, as well as
dihedral angles, the names of the duals, and also in some cases
the expression for the vertex data rather than just the numerical
approximation.

Also mentioned in the index, is the source code and manual for the
program that created these files.


Another possibility is a recent program called Kaleido that creates
all the polyhedra on the netlib server and more. This along with
a thesis describing the technique, the source code, the pre-calculated
data, and postscript wireframe drawings of each polyhedron, is
available at gauss.technion.ac.il in the directory /kaleido
This doesn't include the vertex data, you are supposed to be able
to calculate it from the data produced (but it beats me how :-)


Hope this helps !

I am in error here: my calculation double-counts the four pixels on the

       n = 8 Floor[ (Sqrt[2]/2) r ]

Example: r = 17, n = 96.

Have there been any papers for fast hidden surface removal using a
front to back method with voxels?  A painter's algorithm would work,
but on systems with slow video memory access ( such as a VGA equipped
PC w/o local bus ) you would spend most of your time drawing things
that would later be overwritten.  Given that you are dealing with,
in effect, point clouds, is there an efficient way of determining what
part of a point cloud is visible and what is not?

Hi.  We are doing some galactic simulations, and need to plot gas density on a
plane using contour or image plotting.  That is, our simulation gives us an
ordered triplet of numbers (r, z, rho) where r and z are positions on the plane
in polar coordinates and rho is the gas density at this point.  We would then like
to plot rho(r,z) using a contour or image plot where white would (for instance) be
large densities and black would (for instance) be low densities.

We are willing to buy any package that is out there.  I tried using Mathematica on
my Sun, but that didn't seem to be up to the job.  I then tried using Matlab on my
Sun, but that only graphs a matrix of values rho(i,j) where i and j are assumed to
be uniformly spaced on the planar grid -- at least that's what it seems to be the
case just today after I read the tutorial but will check the manuals in more
detail later.

My question is, is there any nice package out there which would give me the
capability to make a contour plot of the triplet of numbers (r, z, rho), or
even (x, y, rho) so I could make a contour plot or an image plot?

Can Matlab be made to work?  How about IDL or Supermongo?  Does anyone have any
phone numbers (FAX preferred) of any software firm that has an appropriate package.
Or any macros for Matlab or Mathematica, or any free software, etc., etc.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

2. to be read by commercial CAD/CAM packages (AutoCAD etc).
3. to be read by ray-tracers (SunVision-Geometry, POV etc.)

I fail to understand how your formalism is related to the mind. What
are the dimensions and light for?  I think you have to explore the
cognitive psychology literature to relate your notation to more traditional
ways of talking about the mind.  Be careful about unsubstantiated claims,
however. Producing the output of a single mental process does not allow you
to make the claim of modelling the mind, much as rolling a wheel down an
incline does allow you to claim that you've modelled (in a useful way!) the
space shuttle.
