Beautification of Chinese Architectural Images in the New Media Age

From the perspective of communication science, the communication of architectural images in the new media age has an obvious beautifying trend. Due to the differences in politics, economics, and cultural environment between China and western countries, the beautification of architectural images in China is a unique phenomenon. This study classifies the beautification of Chinese architectural images into different types in terms of image communication: audience orientation, time orientation, space orientation, and cultural orientation. By investigating and analyzing relevant cases, this study explores the beautification of Chinese architectural images in the new media age and puts forward thoughts and evaluation, aiming to better comprehend the relationship between beautification and architectural communication.

ANALISIS CITRA MENGENAI PEMBANGUNAN ZONA INTEGRITAS

ABSTRACT In the process of establishing the image of Immigration Office Class I Non TPI Karawang using the Development of Integrity Zone as an effort to support the formation of a very good image for the office. The development of this Integrity Zone is divided into two different predicate steps, including the Corruption-Free Zone (WBK) and the Clean and Serving Bureaucracy (WBBM). From these steps, an innovation service was formed to support the successful achievement of WBK/WBBM badges with the hope of being able to help various public complaints. The regulations underlying the establishment of this Integrity Zone are contained in Presidential Decree No. 14 of 2010 concerning the Establishment of the Steering Committee for National Bureaucratic Reform and the National Bureaucratic Reform Team as amended by presidential decree No. 23 of 2010. The method conducted in this study is Qualitative – descriptive which is a depiction using the collection of case study data analysis at the Immigration Office Class I Non TPI Karawang. The results of this study showed that the development of Integrity Zone managed to form an excellent office image in the eyes of the community. Keywords: Image, Communication Process, Integrity Zone Development ABSTRAK Pada proses pembentukan citra Kantor Imigrasi Kelas I Non TPI Karawang menggunakan Pembangunan Zona Integritas sebagai upaya pendukung terbentuknya citra sangat baik bagi kantor. Pembangunan Zona Integritas ini terbagi menjadi dua tahap predikat yang berbeda, diantaranya tahap Wilayah Bebas Korupsi (WBK) dan tahap Wilayah Birokrasi Bersih dan Melayani (WBBM). Dari tahap – tahap tersebut dibentuk sebuah layanan inovasi sebagai pendukung keberhasilan pencapaian lencana WBK/WBBM dengan harapan cakap dalam membantu berbagai keluhan masyarakat. Peraturan yang mendasari terbentuknya Zona Integritas ini ada dalam Keputusan Presiden Republik Indonesia Nomor 14 Tahun 2010 tentang Pembentukan Komite Pengarah Reformasi Birokrasi Nasional dan Tim Reformasi Birokrasi Nasional sebagaimana telah diubah dengan keputusan Presiden Republik Indonesia Nomor 23 Tahun 2010. Metode yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini ialah Kualitatif – deskriptif yang merupakan penggambaran menggunakan pengumpulan informasi Analisis data Studi Kasus pada Kantor Imigrasi Kelas I Non TPI Karawang. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa pembangunan Zona Integritas berhasil membentuk Citra kantor yang sangat baik dimata masyarakat.

Art Visual Image Transmission Method Based on Cartesian Genetic Programming

Because most of the traditional artistic visual image communication methods use the form of modeling and calculation, there are some problems such as long image processing time, low success rate of image visual communication, and poor visual effect. An artistic visual image communication method based on Cartesian genetic programming is proposed. The visual expression sensitivity difference method is introduced to process the image data, the neural network is used to identify the characteristics of the artistic visual image, the midpoint displacement method is used to remove the folds of the artistic visual image, and the processed image is formed under the above three links. The Cartesian genetic programming algorithm is used to encode the preprocessed image, improve the fitness function, select the algorithm to improve the operation, design the image rendering platform, input the processed image to the platform, and complete the artistic visual image transmission. The analysis of the experimental results shows that the image processing time of this method is short, the success rate of visual communication is high, and the image visual effect is good, which can obtain the image processing results satisfactory to users.

The Effect of Baby Food E-Store Image (for Ages 0–3) on Consumers’ Purchase Intention

This research aims to investigate the influence of baby food e-store image (for ages 0–3) on consumers’ purchase intention, mainly based on the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) model. Perceived value is additionally tested as a mediator of the relationship between baby food e-store image and consumers’ purchase intention. An online questionnaire survey was conducted among consumers of baby food e-stores that specialize in ages 0–3. The final sample comprised 584 valid responses. To test the hypotheses in the relationships among latent variables, structural equation model analysis was used in this study. The findings showed that design image, order fulfillment image, communication service image, and security image of baby food e-stores have positive effects on consumers’ perceived value, while perceived value mediates the relationship between baby food e-stores and consumers’ purchase intention. As a result, more perceived value would be created between online stores and their consumers with a higher level of value. Two managerial implications derived from this study explain how to manage baby food e-stores and how to promote online baby food undertakings. Particularly, consumers’ perceived emotional and functional value can be shaped by four dimensions of baby food e-store image, e-store design image, order fulfillment image, communication service image, and security image, which finally determines their purchase intentions. The originality and value of this study enriches the importance of consumers’ perceived value in the field of online store image. Moreover, this study demonstrates that baby food e-store image increases consumers’ perceived value and purchase intention.

A Security-Enhanced Image Communication Scheme Using Cellular Neural Network

In the current network and big data environment, the secure transmission of digital images is facing huge challenges. The use of some methodologies in artificial intelligence to enhance its security is extremely cutting-edge and also a development trend. To this end, this paper proposes a security-enhanced image communication scheme based on cellular neural network (CNN) under cryptanalysis. First, the complex characteristics of CNN are used to create pseudorandom sequences for image encryption. Then, a plain image is sequentially confused, permuted and diffused to get the cipher image by these CNN-based sequences. Based on cryptanalysis theory, a security-enhanced algorithm structure and relevant steps are detailed. Theoretical analysis and experimental results both demonstrate its safety performance. Moreover, the structure of image cipher can effectively resist various common attacks in cryptography. Therefore, the image communication scheme based on CNN proposed in this paper is a competitive security technology method.
