A chronology of 19th century writings on Formosa:from the Chinese Repository, the Chinese Recorder, and the China Review
十五世紀末，歐洲人開始駕著船，帶著航海家、冒險家、傳教士、商人、軍人等航向不知名的世界各地。影響所及非三言兩 語可以道盡。台灣的地理位置正處於歐洲人由印度洋東航太平洋尤其到遠東的必經之地。1544年葡萄牙航海家從台灣附近的海域 遙望這個連綿青山綠水的海島，給了它「Ilha Formosa」（美麗島）後，Formosa遂成為西方人對台灣的稱呼了。從此也影響了台灣 歷史的發展。 在歐洲對外擴張及殖民政策影響下，十七世紀荷蘭人（1624−1662）與西班牙人（1626−1642）先後在台灣南部、北部佔領並 統治過台灣。之後，...

人工智慧在流行趨勢研究的應用
Consumer behavior is complicated. In the cosmetic market, personal intuition and fashion trends for colour selection are guidelines for consumers. A systematic method for female facial skin-color classification and an application in the makeup market are proposed in this study. In this paper, face recognition with a large number of images is first discussed. Then, an innovative method for colour capturing at selected points is presented and complexion-aggregated analysis is performed. This innovative method is an extension of face-recognition theory. Images in RGB format are converted to Lab-space format during data collection and then Fuzzy C-means theory is utilized to cluster and group th...
