Reconstructing 3D data from images acquired by cameras is a difficult task. The problem becomes harder if the goal is to recover the dynamics of the 3D world from the image flow. However, it is known that humans integrate and combine the information from different sensorial systems to perceive the world. For example, tlie human vision system has close links with the wstibular system to perform ...

Wildfires produce smoke, which can then encounter wine grapes, causing the fruit to absorb smoke-related volatile organic compounds. These compounds impact sensorial profiles of resulting wines, introducing an uncharacteristic smokey flavor and ashy finish. Since these off-flavor attributes are observed have longer-lasting perception, a proper inter-stimulus protocol is necessary ensure accurat...

Odor pollution is an important type of that subject to complaints in terms quality life and health. Since the odor perception a sensorial process occurs naturally with breathing, it difficult avoid when exposed. H2S one main sources wastewater reservoir, estuarine polluted river or waterways are among most suitable areas for formation. The aim this study determine changes concentrations on Araç...

BACKGROUND Increasing antioxidant levels in fruit through breeding is an important option to support higher antioxidant intake particularly when fruit consumption is low. Indeed, if nutritional components are also combined with a high standard of sensorial fruit quality, the perspective for consumer health can be further improved by encouraging more fruit consumption. Wild species are valued by...

The ham from Iberian pigs is a meat product of high sensorial quality, with a first-rate consumer acceptance. Its excellent sensorial characteristics are basically due to the extensive feeding system of Iberian pigs, based on acorns and grass, and the prolonged technological processing of the ham (18-24 months). Iberian hams present high intramuscular fat content and marbling. Currently, chemic...

The importance of gastrointestinal motility and gut perception in medicine has been long recognized. Physiologically, these key functions ensure normal unperceived feeding and digestion, crucial aspects of health and wellbeing. Conversely, pathophysiological disturbances may produce digestive symptoms, which are common in the general population and may range from the simply annoying to the inca...

BACKGROUND Theory of Mind (ToM) refers to the ability to infer another person's mental state based upon interactional information. ToM deficits have been suggested to underlie crucial aspects of social interaction failure in disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, although the development of paradigms for demonstrating such deficits remains an ongoing area of research. Recent studies have e...

this study evaluated the use of the solar dryer at esfahan agricultural research center for drying prunes. a factorial experiment was carried using a randomized complete block design with four replications. the four methods used to accelerate prune drying were: control group (no treatment), mechanical perforation at one week of drying, blanching, submersion in australian cold dip method. the dr...

Abstract Chocolate exhibits a complex material response under the varying mechanical loads present during oral processing. Mechanical properties such as Young’s modulus and fracture stress are linked to sensorial attributes hardness. Apart from this link with hardness perception, these important input parameters towards developing computational model simulate first bite. This study aims determi...
