Video surveillance technology is one of the most important topics in the security technology domain. However, the existing video surveillance systems relay on human observers and have some limitations. Therefore, it is necessary these systems equipped to an internal intelligence and detect abnormality automatically. In this paper, we have proposed a novel method for recognizing abnormal behavio...

Radio frequency (RF) and microwave (MW) heating provide an important advantage of more rapid heat penetration in pasteurization processes for heat labile high value foods, which to date, have only been pasteurized by conductive heating. The objectives of this work were to determine the dielectric constant, loss factor and power penetration depth for salmon (0.8% and 2.3% total salt) and sturgeo...

Intelligent surveillance systems deal with all aspects of threat detection in a given scene; these range from segmentation to activity interpretation. The proposed architecture is a step towards solving the detection and tracking of suspicious objects as well as the analysis of the activities in the scene. It is important to include different kinds of sensors for the detection process. Indeed, ...

We present a multiple object tracking algorithm working with occlusions. Firstly, for each detected object we compute feature points using FAST algorithm [1]. Secondly, for each feature point we build a descriptor based on Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) [2]. Thirdly, we track feature points using these descriptors. Object tracking is possible even if objects are occluded. If few objects ...

This study tested the activity of LD-1227, which contains a caviar-derived homogenate added with coenzyme Q(10) (CoQ(10))-selenium component (CaviarLieri(®), Lab-Dom, Switzerland), in aged human skin and its potential role on skin mitochondria function. Human dermal fibroblasts were obtained from healthy donors over 70 years old and treated with LD-1227 for 72 hr. As compared to baseline, LD-12...

Over the last century the reproduction of sturgeon has been intensively studied par Russian scientists who established a technology for the ranching of alevins which included artificial fertilization of gametes taken from wild broodfish and larvae rearing. More recently, since 1970, major contributions originated from teams in the USA, the EU, Japan and Iran. A rather good knowledge of the repr...

The article is devoted to the study of participation Western European merchants in concession export trade Russia reign Peter I. Concession as a way solving financial problems was often used and customs policy 17th–18th centuries. Having ascended throne, I continued actively use form foreign country. Stateowned goods were transferred concession: caviar, rhubarb, flax, bristles, sheep wool, timb...
