Abstract. The main issue of object identification in tuna image is the difficulty of extracting the entire contour of tuna physical features, because it is often influenced by uneven illumination and the ambiguity of object edges in tuna image. We propose a novel segmentation method to optimize the determination of tuna region using GBW-AHK and RCM. GBW-AHK is used to optimize the determination of adaptive threshold in order to reduce over-segmented watershed regions. Then, RCM merges the remaining regions based on two merging criteria, thus it produces two main areas of segmentation, the object extraction of tuna and the background. The experimental results on 25 tuna images demonstrate that the proposed method successfully produced an image segmentation with the average value of RAE by 4.77%, ME of 0.63%, MHD of 0.20, and the execution time was 11.61 seconds. Keywords: watershed, gradient-barrier, hierarchical cluster analysis, regional credibility merging, tuna segmentation Abstrak. Kendala utama identifikasi objek tuna pada citra ikan tuna adalah sulitnya mengekstraksi seluruh kontur tubuh ikan, karena seringkali dipengaruhi faktor iluminasi yang tidak merata dan ambiguitas tepi objek pada citra. Penelitian ini mengusulkan metode segmentasi baru yang mengoptimalkan penentuan region objek tuna menggunakan Gradient-Barrier Watershed berbasis Analisis Hierarki Klaster (GBW-AHK) dan Regional Credibility Merging (RCM). Metode GBW-AHK digunakan untuk mengoptimalkan penentuan adaptif threshold untuk mereduksi region watershed yang over-segmentasi. Kemudian RCM melakukan penggabungan region sisa hasil reduksi berdasarkan dua syarat penggabungan hingga dihasilkan dua wilayah utama segmentasi, yakni ekstraksi objek ikan tuna dan background. Hasil eksperimen pada 25 citra ikan tuna membuktikan bahwa metode usulan berhasil melakukan segmentasi dengan nilai rata-rata relative foreground area error (RAE) 4,77%, misclassification error (ME) 0,63%, modified Hausdorff distance (MHD) 0,20, dan waktu eksekusi 11,61 detik. Kata Kunci: watershed, gradient-barrier, analisis hierarki klaster, regional credibility merging, segmentasi tuna

Tuna fish image classification is an important part to sort out the type and quality of the tuna based upon the shape. The image of tuna should have good segmentation results before entering the classification stage. It has uneven lighting and complex texture resulting in inappropriate segmentation. This research proposed method of automatic determination seeded random walker in the watershed region for tuna image segmentation. Random walker is a noise-resistant segmentation method that requires two types of seeds defined by the user, the seed pixels for background and seed pixels for the object. We evaluated the proposed method on 30 images of tuna using relative foreground area error (RAE), misclassification error (ME), and modified Hausdroff distances (MHD) evaluation methods with values of 4.38%, 1.34% and 1.11%, respectively. This suggests that the seeded random walker method is more effective than exiting methods for tuna image segmentation.

The Relationship

Background/Aim. The vertical dimension of occlusion is a very important parameter for proper reconstruction of the relationship between the jaws. The literature describes many methods for its finding, from the simple, easily applicable clinically, to quite complicated, with the use of one or more devices for determination. The aim of this study was to examine the possibility of determining the vertical dimension of occlusion using the vocals ?O? and ?E? with the control of values o btained by applying cognitive functions. Methods. This investigation was performed with the two groups of patients. The first group consisted of 50 females and 50 males, aged 18 to 30 years. In this group the distance between the reference points (on top of the nose and chin) was measured in the position of the mandible in the vertical dimension of occlusion, the vertical dimension at rest and the pronunciation of the words ?OLO? and ?ELE?. Checking the correctness of the particular value for the word ?OLO? was also performed by the phonetic method with the application of cognitive exercises when the patients counted from 89 to 80. The obtained difference in the average values i n determining the vertical dimension of occlusion and the ?OLO? and ?ELE? in the first group was used as the reference for determining the vertical dimension of occlusion in the second group of patients. The second group comprised of 31 edentulous persons (14 females and 17 males), aged from 54 to 85 years who had been made a complete denture. Results. The average value obtained for the vertical dimension of rest for the entire sample was 2.16 mm, for the word ?OLO? for the entire sample was 5.51 mm and for the word ?ELE? for the entire sample was 7.47 mm. There was no statistically significant difference between the genders for the value of the vertical dimension at rest, ?ELE? and ?OLO?. There was a statistically significant difference between the values f or the vertical dimension at rest, ?OLO? and ?ELE? for both genders. There was a statistically significant correlation between the value for the vertical dimension at rest, ?OLO? and ?ELE?, for both groups of subjects. Conclusion. Determining the vertical dimension of occlusion requires 5.5 mm subtraction from the position of the mandible in pronunciation of the word ?OLO? or 7.5 mm in pronunciation of the word ?ELE?.

The article considers the possibility of applying a standard method for calculating the repulsive force for a thick high-coercive permanent magnets from samarium-cobalt alloy in a magnetic system. The results of the research allowed us to introduce correction coefficients in the method of calculating the repulsive force in a magnetic system with such magnets, depending on the air gap between of them. It is shown that the repulsive forces of the North poles of permanent magnets differ from the repulsive forces of the South poles. The research was carried out with magnets manufactured by different enterprises. When calculating the repulsive force, the average value of the repulsive force between the North and South poles of magnets is found.

It is well known that cereal crops exposed to deoxynivalenol (DON) infection are capable of detoxifying this mycotoxin through the plant metabolism. In this context, one major pathway is the conjugation of DON to a glucose moiety giving rise to 3-β-D-glucopyranosyl-4-deoxynivalenol (D3G). Though no longer toxic for plants, this metabolite may potentially be hydrolysed in the digestive tract of humans and animals, releasing thus the toxic precursor (DON). The co-occurrence of DON and D3G in cereal-based products has already been reported but data about their absolute and relative concentrations are still insufficient. In order to contribute to a better understanding of the significance of D3G, the quantitative determination of DON and D3G has been carried out in 22 cereal samples and 4 malt-based products collected from 9 countries by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS/ MS). DON was detected in all cereal samples (min: 3 µg/kg; max: 2,864 µg/kg; median: 176 µg/kg) but only in 1 malt-based product (16 µg/kg) whereas D3G was detected in 21 cereal samples (min: <1 µg/kg; max: 367 µg/kg; median: 19 µg/kg) and only in 1 malt-based product (6 µg/kg). The proportion of D3G in relation to DON concentration was within a 6-29% range with an average value at 12±7% in the tested samples.

The determination of chemical purity, melting range, and variation of enthalpy in the process of characterizing medicines is one of the principal requirements evaluated in quality control of the pharmaceutical industry. In this study, the method of purity determination using DSC was outlined, as well as the application of this technique for the evaluation of commercial samples of zidovudine (AZT) (raw material) supplied by different laboratories. To this end, samples from six different laboratories (A, B, C, D, E, and F) and the standard reference (R) from the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) were analyzed. The DSC curves were obtained in the temperature range of 25 to 200 ºC under the dynamic atmosphere of N2 (50 mL min-1), heating rate of β=2 ºC min-1, using an Al capsule containing approximately 2 mg of sample material. The results demonstrated that the standard reference presented a proportion of 99.83% whereas the AZT samples presented a variation ranging from 97.59 to 99.54%. In addition, the standard reference was found to present a temperature of onset of melting point of 122.80 °C. Regarding the samples of active agents provided by the different laboratories, a variation ranging from 118.70 to 122.87 °C was measured. In terms of ΔHm, the samples presented an average value of 31.12 kJ mol-1.

Important biogenic elements of plants are zinc and copper, which come into them from the soil in the form of cations. Plants selectively absorb the elements they need in accordance with physiological and biochemical needs, as well as the characteristics of their vegetation. Copper and zinc are part of the enzymes that are necessary for the normal course of many biochemical reactions. Lack or excess of any chemical element causes a violation of the normal course of biochemical and physiological processes in plants. The paper presents the results of the study of zinc and copper content in the soil, as well as in the above-ground and underground organs of the studied plant object. Quantitative determination of zinc and copper was carried out on an atomic absorption spectrometer. As an object of study, a flower plant of the Gentian family (lat. Gentianáceae), genus Eustoma (lat. Eustoma), grade Aube Pink Picotee. Vegetation experiments were carried out on the basis of LLC "Greenhouse "Iceberg". According to the data, the content of zinc and copper in the organs of the studied plant decreases in a number of root – aboveground part – flower. In different periods of vegetation there is a different accumulation of copper and zinc in the aboveground and underground organs. The root of this plant performs a barrier function, blocking the flow of copper into the plant from the soil at 27 weeks of development. In this case, the zinc content in the root of the plant during this period increases significantly, but this figure in the above-ground part of the plant varies slightly. According to the calculated average value of the biological absorption coefficient, it can be seen that the accumulation of zinc in the plant occurs to a greater extent than the accumulation of copper.
