green tea extract has plenty of antioxidant. due to the toxicity of synthetic antioxidants, it is necessary that these antioxidants in products such as donuts be replaced with natural antioxidants. the purpose of this research is to reduce the usage of synthetic antioxidants as it is possible. so the extract was extracted and it was used as a natural antioxidant in the dough of donuts. due to t...

Two new extensions of Fuzzy C-means (FCM) algorithm which minimize an objective function incorporating a validity index are proposed. These algorithms are applied to color quantization of images. In the first approach, we minimize an objective function including a term for partition index. This algorithm attempts to place the cluster centers such that the membership values of the pixels are max...

A new color image watermarking algorithm with resistance to JPEG lossy compression based on Quantization Index Modulation (QIM) is proposed in this paper. As it is known, QIM method can achieve a good balance between the embedding bit rate, robustness and distortion between the original image and the composited image by modulating the source signal into different clusters. The corresponding DCT...

rats (i, red color), the controlateral part (ii, blue color) and the ipsilateral part (iii, green color). For DIAMOND: λ⁄⁄ ,λ⊥: axial and radial diffusivities, hei: heterogeneity index, Diso: Diffusion isotropic, and fDiso: fraction of Diso. For NODDI: ficvf: intra-cellular volume fraction, fiso: CSF volume fraction and odi: orientation dispersion index. * : statistically significant Characteri...

Al2 (SO4)3, 18H2O, FeCl3 and Ca (OH)2 were used for the treatment of tannery wastewaters. The influences of pH and coagulant dosages were studied. Conditions were optimised according to the pollutant removal efficiencies, the volume of decanted sludge and the biodegradability index improvement. The results indicate that 6771% of total COD, 76-92% of color and 79-97% of Cr can be removed using t...

Cross-disciplinary work in health is an important element to deliver comprehensive health care actions. The present study analyzed cross-disciplinary actions in intensive care according to Habermas. This case study was performed using a qualitative approach. The empiric material capture was collected by observing the setting and using semi-structured interviews with health workers. The informat...

soil scientists have developed different mathematical equations and indices to be able to quantify soil development and to organize soil data. the main objective of the present research was the comparison of different soil development indices (including forms and ratios of iron, magnetic susceptibility, color indices, and modified harden index) related to different soils located on kerman-baft ...
