An evaluation of food type and texture indicated that both variables affected the expulsions of a 3-year-old with feeding problems. The results of the evaluation were used to prescribe a treatment (reducing the texture of one food type) that reduced expulsion.

In this study tongue movements of 103 normal 5-, 6-, 7-, and 8-year-old children were measured and compared. The 5-year-olds were compared with children of an earlier study and data were combined for 2- to 8-year-old children. Two different tongue positions were measured as three standard textures of food were presented: first, the position of the tongue as the food was 5 cm away from the lips,...

While manifold works are done in the area of natural image processing to enhance image content, images of documents and more specifically old manuscripts images still suffer from degradations. State of the art approaches show performance in restoring degraded manuscripts images but still a lake is observed in this area. Old manuscripts images are important in that they present a part of a cultu...

in spite of continuous changes in different era, historic and old cities with their unique attraction can be considered as a best place for tourism activities. sanandaj as a capital of kurdistan, with its’ compressed and labyrinth old texture which during the time according the physical, social and natural features had been made, because fascinating historic architecture, unique cultural and ar...

The recognition of color texture under varying lighting conditions remains an open issue. Several features have been proposed for this purpose, ranging from traditional statistical descriptors to features extracted with neural networks. Still, it is not completely clear under what circumstances a feature performs better than others. In this paper, we report an extensive comparison of old and ne...

Breast fillet quality was evaluated from 37-, 39-, 42-, 44-, 46-, 49-, and 51-d-old broilers after post-chill (PC) aging of the carcass 0, 2, 4, or 6 h and deboning. Fillets were vacuum sealed in cooking bags and heated to an internal temperature of 72 C by submersion in a 95 C water bath. Cook yield was determined as the weight percentage of the fillet remaining after cooking. Texture of the c...

olive is a perennial evergreen tree which has good adaptability to poor environmental conditions such as salt and drought resistance. in recent years, there is a tendency to plant olive trees in green spaces. therefore, this study was carried out to evaluate 15 olive cultivars regarding growth habit, form, and texture to recommend for landscape. six-year-old trees of 15 olive cultivars, which h...

Texture is an important characteristic of images. Image texture classification is widely used in many applications, such as detection of industry product, document class, and digital image processing of remote sensing and so on. Several K-View based algorithms have been proposed for image texture classification. This study proposed an improved k-view algorithm for texture classification using v...
