Long-term storage can largely degrade the taste and quality of dried shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes). This paper aimed at developing a rapid method for discrimination of the regular and aged shiitake by near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic analysis and chemometrics. Regular (n=197) and aged (n=133) samples of shiitake were collected from six main producing areas in two successive years (2013 and 2014). NIR reflectance spectra (4000–12000 cm−1) were measured with finely ground powders. Different data preprocessing method including smoothing, taking second-order derivatives (D2), and standard normal variate (SNV) were investigated to reduce the unwanted spectral variations. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLSDA) and least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) were used to develop classification models. The results indicate that SNV and D2 can largely enhance the classification accuracy. The best sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of classification were 0.967, 0.953, and 0.961 obtained by SNV-LS-SVM and 0.933, 0.930, and 0.932 obtained by SNV-PLSDA, respectively. Moreover, the low model complexity and the high accuracy in predicting objects produced in different years demonstrate that the classification models had a good generalization performance.

Equations used to predict intake by cattle from some chemical or physical characteristic of food were examined. The equations are empirical or mechanistic in nature. Mechanistic equations are not used widely, usually only in a research context. The input to mechanistic models requires too much time to quantify to be used routinely. Empirical relationships form the basis of most feeding standards and are based on a wide variety of prescribed characteristics (digestibility, chemical composition, etc.), but the underlying principle is a relationship between intake and digestibility. Equations are modified to take account of feed types, animal weight and physiological state, rumen modifiers, hormone implants, environmental conditions, and whether grazing or hand fed. Quite significant differences exist between the equations in the intakes they predict in response to variation in weight, breed type, and feed digestibility. Equations can be very precise in their prediction when used with feed types and breed types on which they are based. Near infrared reflectance (NIR) offers the most potential for long-term development of equations. At present, NIR is used largely to determine chemical composition because of speed of operation, but long-term storage of data is simple, allowing further associative relationships to be developed readily. More sophisticated statistical procedures being employed to improve the precision of the relationships between intake and prescribed characteristics of food and NIR will be vitally important as they enable extra parameters to be incorporated at no extra cost or time for analysis.

A model of moisture movement in wood is presented in this paper in a two-dimensional-in-space formulation. The finite-difference technique has been used in order to obtain the solution of the problem. The model was applied to predict the moisture content in sawn boards from pine during long term storage under outdoor climatic conditions. The satisfactory agreement between the numerical solution and experimental data was obtained.

The introduction and active use of information transmission and storage systems in the Ministry of Defense (MoD) of Ukraine form the need to develop ways of guaranteed removal of data from media after their use or long-term storage. Such a task is an essential component of the functioning of any information security system. The article analyzes the problems of guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media. An overview of approaches to the guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media of different types is presented, and partial estimates of the effectiveness of their application are given by some generally accepted indicators of performance evaluation. The article also describes the classification of methods of destruction of information depending on the influence on its medium. The results of the analysis revealed the main problems of application of software methods and methods of demagnetization of the information carrier. The issue of guaranteed destruction of information from modern SSD devices, which are actively used in the formation of new systems of information accumulation and processing, became particularly relevant in the article. In today's conditions of development of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, methods of mechanical and thermal destruction are more commonly used today. In the medium term, the vector of the use of information elimination methods will change towards the methods of physical impact by the pulsed magnetic field and the software methods that allow to store the information storage device, but this today requires specialists to develop new ways of protecting information in order to avoid its leakage.
