Pempek is one of the traditional foods South Sumatra which a processed food made from fish and tapioca flour. The chewy texture pempek very popular among consumers, but addition too much flour can make has hard texture. One alternative to improve using isolate soy protein (ISP). This study aims obtain optimum formulation added with based on consumer preferences identify ideal attributes sensory...

The maximum entropy principle is largely used in thresholding and segmentation of images. Among the several formulations of this principle, the most effectively applied is that based on Tsallis non-extensive entropy. Here, we discuss the role of its entropic index in determining the thresholds. When this index is spanning the interval (0,1), for some images, the values of thresholds can have la...

Agricultural soils of selected regions of Southwestern Karnataka, Peninsular India, were subjected to systematic mineralogical characterization along with the study of soil physical properties. Physical properties such as soil texture and micro porosity were studied using particle size analyses and positron annihilation lifetime analysis (PALS) technique, respectively. The latter was used to an...

An important and long-standing goal of interaction design i s to make interfaces invisible. Effective interaction design in embodied computing must map the inputs and outputs of the computational process with the qualities of the physical artifact in which it is embedded, taking into account qualities such as size, shape, texture, material, and geometry. To go beyond ad-hoc demonstration projec...

We have investigated the microscopic physical inhomogeneity ("texture") of the avian embryo in vivo by shadowgraph. This noninvasive technique allows one to correlate the shape of blood vessels to the physical, micro-structural, pattern that exists in the embryo prior to vessel appearance. Before any vessel forms, vascular paths are present and are prepatterned, by fields of cellular orientatio...

This study aims to analyze the physical properties of soil, such as texture, color, temperature, moisture content, bulk density and permeability well magnetic soil under a tree stand cashew, coconut cocoa. research was conducted on mixed farms where there are cocoa trees close each other. Samples were taken vertically from top depth 100 cm. The results showed that color texture tended be same c...
