چکیده
A prototype system for automated assessment of biscuit bake has been developed. The system employs monochrome imaging and histogramming techniques to classify product samples as underbaked, correctly baked or overbaked. Two products have been investigated. Product \A" exhibits uneven browing due to the formation of blisters. An intensity histogram suitably characterises the overall browning and the prototype system classiies samples of product \A" with an error rate comparable to that of a trained inspector. Product \B" browns most heavily on the perimeter on the biscuit. A boundary-distance histogram is used to classify samples of product \B". In this case also, the system performance is comparable with a trained inspector.

Integrated Inspection Planning and Preventive Maintenance for a Markov Deteriorating System Under Scenario-based Demand Uncertainty
In this paper, a single-product, single-machine system under Markovian deterioration of machine condition and demand uncertainty is studied. The objective is to find the optimal intervals for inspection and preventive maintenance activities in a condition-based maintenance planning with discrete monitoring framework. At first, a stochastic dynamic programming model whose state variable is the ...
متن کاملLevel of exposure to X-Ray in security gates of Tehran’s Imam Khomeini airport
X-Ray is an ionizing electromagnetic radiation with a wide spectrum. A setting where this radiation is widely used is airport security units. This study was conducted to measure the level of momentary exposure to X-Ray in operators and personnel working in security gates of Imam Khomeini airport. In this cross-sectional study, the X-Ray machines used in security gates of Imam Khomeini airport a...
متن کاملHeat and Mass Transfer in Industrial Biscuit Baking Oven and Effect of Temperature on Baking Time
This research deals with heat and mass transfer in biscuit industrial baking ovens. In these ovens, heat reaches biscuits indirectly by radiation, convection and conduction. The method for numerical solution is that we first provide the related equations, then they are discretized by finite difference method (FDM), and finally, after encoding and writing a program for the computer, we run it. T...
متن کاملLife Style Factors and Morbidity Pattern of Biscuit Company Workers at Puducherry
Background: The baking industry is not a very hazardous occupational environment, but it is not free from ergonomic derangement. The biscuit factory workers are exposed to noise, heat, odour, flour dust, sugar dust and biscuit dust. Method: A cross sectional study was conducted in all males and females of more than 18 years among employees of a biscuit company in Puducherry who met the inclusi...
متن کاملA Multi-Stage Single-Machine Replacement Strategy Using Stochastic Dynamic Programming
In this paper, the single machine replacement problem is being modeled into the frameworks of stochastic dynamic programming and control threshold policy, where some properties of the optimal values of the control thresholds are derived. Using these properties and by minimizing a cost function, the optimal values of two control thresholds for the time between productions of two successive nonco...
