The title compound, C(20)H(32)O(2), has been isolated from hydrogenated rosin. There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. In each mol-ecule, the cyclo-hexane ring assumes a chair conformation, while the two cyclo-hexene rings adopt half-chair and envelope conformations. Inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding between carboxyl groups links pairs of independent mol-ecules into di...

The title compound, C(24)H(40)O(3)·C(2)H(6)O, is a substituted tetra-cyclo-[10.2.2.0(1,10).0(4,9)]hexa-decane derivative obtained from the reduction of maleopimaric acid which was isolated from a maleic anhydride modified rosin. In the crystal, the triol mol-ecule and the ethanol solvent mol-ecule are linked by hydroxyl O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, giving a two-dimensional network structure.

Euler thresholding is a non-parametric dynamic thresholding method, useful for many computer vision tasks. It requires the calculation of a graph relating thresholds to Euler numbers and performing a Rosin unimodal threshold calculation on the graph. This report details how this can be done in time complexity O(N + T ) where N is the number of pixels in the image and T is the number of threshol...
