banana is one of the most important tropical fruit from commercial and industrial point of view. this fruit is an extremely perishable fruit which can not be preserved using freezing process. therefore, drying is the most promising method. conventional air drying is energy intensive and consequently expensive method. pre-treatments can be used to reduce the initial water content or to modify th...

the goal of this study was to predict the moisture content of paddy using machine vision and artificial neural networks (anns). the grains were dried as thin layer with air temperatures of 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80°c and air velocities of 0.54, 1.18, 1.56, 2.48 and 3.27 ms-1. kinetics of l*a*b* were measured. the air temperature, air velocity, and l*a*b* values were used as ann inputs. the res...

Introduction: Nowadays applying computer in image processing is being improved revolutionary for solving medical images deficiencies. Image features that are analysis in image processing show image information. The aim of the present study was to find correlation between CT- scan and MRI images' features. Materials and Methods: After data acquisition, applying...

A computed 3D imaging system based on local image reconstruction (LIR) using Wavelets Sampling Model is presented. In this paper, by means of combination of wavelets sampling model and singular value decomposition, moderate CT image with least squares of error can be reconstructed from a limited number of projections by only once operation of matrix multiplication. As a result, local image reco...

Visual sensor networks (VSNs) that employ content-rich 2-D images or image sequences as the basic media have been evolving rapidly in recent years. Besides the critical resource constraints that are already inherent in any micro-sensor networks, the development of VSNs also faces challenges from device design, image transmission, and onboard image processing, among which efficient onboard proce...
