in this research, pomegranate arils are dehydrated by osmotic dehydration in 40, 50, and 60 % sucrose ‎solutions and at 45, 55 and 65 degrees c‎‏ ‏‎ and weight reduction, solids grain and water loss of the products ‎were measured at 60, 120 and 180 minutes of process. osmotic dehydration processes was modeled by ‎combination of neural network and fuzzy logic techniques (neuro-fuzzy) and respons...

it is very important to find the best model to quantify seed germination rate on the response of temperature which it can be used in determination of cardinal temperatures. this study was conducted to evaluation nonlinear regressions models for description wheat (cv. morvarid) germination rate response to temperatures and water potentials. therefore, seeds germination rate were evaluated in tem...

1. A longstanding view of simple cells is that they sum their inputs linearly. However, the linear model falls short of a complete account of simple-cell direction selectivity. We have developed a nonlinear model of simple-cell responses (hereafter referred to as the normalization model) to explain a larger body of physiological data. 2. The normalization model consists of an underlying linear ...
