AIM Combined PET/MR systems have now become available for clinical use. Given the lack of integrated standard transmission (TX) sources in these systems, attenuation and scatter correction (AC) must be performed using the available MR-images. Since bone tissue cannot easily be accounted for during MR-AC, PET quantification can be biased, in particular, in the vicinity of the skull. Here, we ass...

A test comparing concentrations of 57 chemical elements (Ag, Al, As, B, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Dy, Er, Eu, Fe, Ga, Gd, Ge, Hf, Ho, I, K, La, Li, Lu, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Nd, Ni, Pb, Pr, Rb, Sb, Se, Sm, Sn, Sr, Ta, Tb, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, Tm, U, V, W, Y, Yb, Zn and Zr) determined by inductively coupled plasma quadrupole mass spectrometry (ICPQMS) in 294 samples of the same bottled wa...

Cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium (L.) Schott) is an important crop which serves as a staple food for large number of people in developing nations including Nigeria. Its perishability necessitates immediate processing after harvest to obtain products such chips, flakes and flour with better storage stability. Proper selection appropriate packaging materials cocoyam maintain the quality attribut...

This study aimed to evaluate the influence of adding plastic bottle fibers soil-cement mixtures and possible improvements generated by addition a blend two types additives, namely, additive 1 (waterproofing improver) 2 (adhesion enhancer), in compactability shear strength parameters soil-cement-plastic fiber mixtures, considering tropical residual soil. The used this are made Polyethylene Terep...

Packaging is one of the important aspects product. Good packaging can increase competitiveness a Therefore, to maintain quality product, it necessary have visual inspection. Furthermore, an automatic inspection reduce occurrence human errors in manual process. This research will use convolution network detect and classify PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. The Convolutional Neural Networ...
