Setting the Stage for Deception. Perspective Distortion in World War I Camouflage
During World War I, in response to substantial advancements in wartime surveillance, it became a common practice to rely on “vision specialists” to devise effective methods of fooling the enemy (tromper l’ennemi).

Jakob Leupold’s Imaginary Automatic Anamorphic Devices of 1713 [PDF]
In 1713 the scientific instrument-maker Jakob Leupold published designs for three machines were the first attempt to design machinery with internal moving parts that replaced human agency in creating original images.

Abstract In hydrological research, data assimilation (DA) is a powerful tool for integrating observational data with numerical models, significantly enhancing predictive accuracy. However, nonlinear groundwater systems often exhibit high‐dimensional and non‐Gaussian characteristics in observations, parameters, and state variables, posing substantial ...

Triangulation of research methods in social phenomena research: anamorphic objection [PDF]
Starting from the problems of bias and validation in combining different research methods and methodologies, the paper discusses the advantages and shortcomings of triangulation. The triangulation concept which involves the use of more than one method to

Remote Sensing Data Assimilation With a Chained Hydrologic‐Hydraulic Model for Flood Forecasting
Abstract Effective flood risk management requires reliable forecasts with extended lead times to enable the implementation of cost‐effective and timely measures. In this study, we present a chained hydrologic‐hydraulic modeling framework designed for effective near‐real‐time flood forecasting. The system integrates runoff predictions from a large‐scale

Ensemble Kalman filter in latent space using a variational autoencoder pair
The use of the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) in strongly nonlinear or constrained atmospheric, oceanographic, or sea‐ice models can be challenging. Applying the EnKF in the latent space of a variational autoencoder (VAE) ensures that the ensemble members satisfy the balances and constraints present in the model.

Can ensemble‐based parameter estimation aid parameterization design?
Parameterization schemes rely on uncertain empirical parameters, the values of which can be estimated objectively and iteratively with ensemble data assimilation methods. Since all sources of forecast error in the background ensemble project onto parameter adjustments, the estimated parameters may converge to implausible values or not converge at all ...

Anamorphosis: optical games with perspective's playful parent [PDF]
We explore conical anamorphosis in several variations and discuss its various constructions, both physical and diagrammatic. While exploring its playful aspect as a form of optical illusion, we argue against the prevalent perception of anamorphosis as a ...
