Given the presence of massive feedback loops in brain networks, it is difficult to disentangle the contribution of feed-forward and feedback processing to the recognition of visual stimuli, in this case, of emotional body expressions. The aim of the present work is to shed light on how well feed-forward processing explains rapid categorization of this important class of stimuli. By means of par...

In the modern competitive world, agriculture sectors and food processing industries need new tools and technologies for the classification of raw materials based on its ingredients presence (Protein, Carbohydrate, Sugar, Fat, Fiber, Vitamin, and Minerals etc. ) and to be used for suitable application process based on its ingredients. In order to ensure the final product quality in food processi...

Use of starch solution as feed for butanol bioconversion processes employing Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 may have added economic advantage over the use of glucose. Acetone butanol ethanol (ABE) was produced from 30 gL(-1) starch solution using a continuous process. The bioreactor was fed at a dilution rate of 0.02 h(-1) and starch solution/feed volume (3 L) was replaced every 72 h. The conti...

SWFP ensures the secure broadcasting of web feeds’ content over a local network or the Internet. The protocol is built to ensure a secure channel to enterprises that broadcast news and information to their employees through web feeds. The protocol also ensures the legitimacy of the readers.

Direct microscopic examination of the rumen and its contents shows microbial populations largely attached to feed particles in the digesta. Most feeds contain a surface layer that is resistant to attachment and therefore to digestion. Infiltration of these recalcitrant epidermal layers through damage sites or through focused enzymatic attack is essential for initiation of the digestive process....

In this work, a comparative study on different drill point geometries and feed rate for composite laminates drilling is presented. For this goal, thrust force monitoring during drilling, hole wall roughness measurement and delamination extension assessment after drilling is accomplished. Delamination is evaluated using enhanced radiography combined with a dedicated computational platform that i...

This paper investigates an online gradient method with innerpenalty for a novel feed forward network it is called pi-sigma network. This network utilizes product cells as the output units to indirectly incorporate the capabilities of higherorder networks while using a fewer number of weights and processing units. Penalty term methods have been widely used to improve the generalization performan...

The molar flow rate of carbon has been selected as the processing parameter for comparison for several reasons. The heterogeneous feedstock (air/oxygen and solid material such as biomass) of most gasifiers permits a wide range of total mass feed rate depending on parameters such as the C/O ratio of the solid, the S/C ratio of the gasifier feed, and equivalence ratio of the gasifier. However, th...

Ether extract composition of poultry by-product meal (PBM) varies among feed-grade and pet food-grade sources. Because feed-grade PBM contains a wider variety of processing residues than pet food-grade PBM, it is presumed to be of lower fat quality (i.e., stability). This potential difference in fat quality, or stability, between PBM sources can be accentuated by high environmental temperatures...
