Comparison in the RGB domain is not suitable for precise color matching, due to the strong dependency of this domain on factors like spectral power distribution of the light source and object geometry. We have studied the use of multispectral or hyperspectral images for color matching, since it can be proven that hyperspectral images can be made independent of the light source (color constancy)...

Pyrolysis-gas-liquid chromatography was used to differentiate selected species of Enterobacteriaceae. Individual cultures of Salmonella typhi, Hafnia alvei, and Proteus vulgaris, and 12 strains of Yersinia enterocolitica were grown in nutrient broth. After harvest and lyophilization, the bacterial samples were pyrolyzed at 900 degrees C, and their volatile fractions were separated on a 50-m cap...

the occurrence of dust storms and their sources in the southern and central parts of iran during the period of 2002 to 2009 was investigated. for this purpose, the meteorological and synoptic data, data from the middle and upper atmosphere, and wind flow tracking model were used. dust storms and nddi were traced using satellite imagery from fasa, shiraz, and bushehr stations. analysis of the gr...
