The reported protein content of foods depends on the analytical method used for determination, making a direct comparison between studies difficult. The aim of this study was to examine and compare protein analytical methods. Some of these methods require extraction preceding analysis. The efficacy of protein extraction differs depending on food matrices and thus extraction yield was determined...

Recently the concept of regression depth has been introduced [1]. The deepest regression (DR) is a method for linear regression which is defined as the fit with the best depth relative to the data. In this paper we explain the properties of the DR and give some applications of deepest regression in analytical chemistry which involve regression through the origin, polynomial regression, the Mich...

in this paper a fuzzy analytical network process model for supporting the vendor selection process in strategic situations is suggested. first, the vendor evaluation problem is putting together by use of the multi-criteria decision-making (mcdm) approach and a five-step hybrid process, which incorporates the technique of fuzzy analytical network process. then the modified topsis (technique for ...

risk management is one of the most important phases of project management and isthe most recently used by many researchers. in this paper, a fuzzy based method wasproposed which identifies different kinds of risks through the project life cycle.then, the project risk magnitude can be obtained in regards to five factors, namely“severity”, “occurrence”, and “not detection” which form fuzzy fmea a...

flood disaster is considered as a major natural hazard due to its devastatingeffects on the affected areas. determining the flood vulnerable areas is important fordecision makers in order to perform planning and management activities. geographicalinformation system (gis) is integrated with multi criteria decision analysis (mcda)used to analyze the flood vulnerable areas. the aim of this researc...

This paper contains numerical analysis of brake system for heavy (mass m=6400[kg]) transport car. Analysis was performed in order to correct existing non optimal brakes in mentioned car. Analysis was based on results of the brake system dynamic tests made in Landing Gear Laboratory Institute of Aviation in Warsaw, Poland. Authors describe analytical process which led to generate results for new...

Motion segmentation is an important task in computer vision and several practical approaches have already been developed. A common approach to motion segmentation is to use the optical flow and formulate the segmentation problem using a linear approximation of the brightness constancy constraints. Although there are numerous solutions to solve this problem and their accuracies and reliabilities...
