This study uses data from the 1996 through 2002 General Social Survey to examine whether one variant of modern racial prejudice-"color coding"-explains support for several ostensibly nonracial government spending policies regarding crime, urban problems, and drug addiction (welfare and race spending are used as baseline measures). Findings indicate that color coding does not extend appreciably beyond its established focus of welfare and race and operates along a continuum with welfare and race at one end (heavily influenced by prejudice), addiction spending and urban spending at the other end (not influenced by prejudice), and crime spending situated in the middle (moderately influenced by prejudice). Possible causes of the continuum, as well as emerging aspects of the color coding phenomenon- specifically, its possible bidirectional effects and its subordination to political party affiliation in explanatory value-are discussed. Directions for future research that would shed additional light on the color coding phenomenon are also discussed.

In the EDGE EDITING TO CONNECTED f-DEGREE GRAPH problem we are given a graph G, an integer k and a function f assigning integers to vertices of G. The task is to decide whether there is a connected graph F on the same vertex set as G, such that for every vertex v, its degree in F is f(v) and the number of edges in E(G)Delta E(F), the symmetric difference of E(G) and E(F), is at most k. We show that EDGE EDITING TO CONNECTED f-DEGREE GRAPH is fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) by providing an algorithm solving the problem on an n-vertex graph in time 2(O)(k)(n)(O(1)). Our FPT algorithm is based on a non-trivial combination of colorcoding and fast computations of representative families over direct sum matroid of f-elongation of co-graphic matroid associated with G and uniform matroid over <(E(G))over bar>, the set of non-edges of G. We believe that this combination could be useful in designing parameterized algorithms for other edge editing problems.

Foot pressure measurement is necessary for classifying disorders of the foot and designing insole for individual person. This present work uses optical sensor (webcam) to capture the foot-pressure image. Image processing on Raspberry Pi with OpenCV library is applied to process image and color coding corresponding to foot pressure. The hardware system uses the transparent acrylic plate and uses the steel as a base of the acrylic plate. The glossy white paper is placed on the top of the transparent acrylic plate covering with polypropylene sheet on the system to block light from outside. Light in the system is released from LED strip entering from a side of the acrylic plate. The scattered light occurred in acrylic plate from the foot pressing were recorded by the webcams. The four webcams placed below facing upward for collecting images (2 cameras for each foot) and sending to Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi will perform image process including image enhancement and image stitching and image displaying. The result can be used to classifying foot type and find methods to prevent the occurrence of for disorders.

Polymorphic worms can change their patterns dynamically, that makes the generation of worm signatures a challenging task. In noisy environments the task is more difficult. In this paper, we propose a novel approach CGNRS to generate worm neighborhood-relation signatures (NRS) from suspicious flow pool with noisy sequences. CGNRS divides n sequences into m groups and each group contains 20 sequences. CGNRS identifies worm sequences for each group by adopting color coding and computing NRS. Then all identified worm sequences are used to generate NRS. We have carried out extensive experiments to evaluate the quality of signatures generated by CGNRS. In comparison with signatures generated by existing approaches, the experiment results show that NRS generated by our approaches can be used to detect effectively polymorphic worm when the suspicious flow pool contains noise sequences.
