Grading and classification of fruits is based on observations and through experiences. The system utilizes image-processing techniques to classify and grade quality of fruits. Two dimensional fruit images are classified on shape and colour based analysis methods. However, different fruit images may have similar or identical colour and shape values. Hence, using colour or shape features analysis...

The Cappadocia Region in Central Anatolia, Turkey is rich wild apricot genetic resources. In this study, a multivariate analysis method of metric and nonmetric multidimensional scaling (MDS) was used to classify 43 genotypes 5 standard cultivars by using Euclidean distance. MDS applied, based on dissimilarities, quantitative traits weight, height, width thickness fruit, stone kernel flesh/stone...

The recent availability of low-cost RGB-D sensors and the maturity of machine vision algorithms makes shape-based parametric modeling of 3D objects in natural environments more practical than ever before. In this paper, we investigate the use of RGB-D based modeling of natural objects using RGB-D sensors and a combination of volumetric 3D reconstruction and parametric shape modeling. We apply t...

Fruit of Cornelian cherry can be used fresh or processed, and cultivation practices are developing in this direction. Due to the rarity its cultivation, is harvested from natural sites occurrence. However, fruit lower quality than cultivars, as their seedlings differ terms ripening. The objective experiment was evaluation approximately a dozen cultivars growth yield under conditions Central Eur...

We propose two differential geometric representations of planar shapes using: (i) direction functions and (ii) curvature functions, of their boundaries. Under either representation, planar shapes are treated as elements of infinite-dimensional shape spaces. Pairwise differences between the shapes are quantified using the lengths of geodesics connecting them on the shape spaces. We specify the g...

The aim of this paper is to adapt the Viability Theorem from differential inclusions (governing the evolution of vectors in a finite dimensional space) to so-called morphological inclusions (governing the evolution of nonempty compact subsets of the Euclidean space). In this morphological framework, the evolution of compact subsets of RN is described by means of flows along bounded Lipschitz ve...

in this work, we report synthesis of silver nanoplates by a simple reduction process of silver nitrate in the presence of polyvinyl alcohol (pva) and n,n'-dimethyl formamide (dmf). the characterization of the samples were carried out using x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission-electron microscopy (tem) and uv-vis spectroscopy. absorption spectra of the nanoplates in comparison with that of...
