the purpose of this study was to identify daily changes in body weight of broiler chickens using image processing and multi-regression analysis. therefore, thirty 1-day-old broiler chickens were reared under standard rearing condition and after acquiring images they were weighted, individually. from 2490 digital images, six features (perimeter, area convex, major axis, minor axis, eccentricity)...

In many industrial and non-industrial applications, it is necessary to identify the largest inscribed rectangle in a certain shape. The problem is studied for convex and non-convex polygons. Another criterion is the direction of the rectangle: axis aligned or general. In this paper a heuristic algorithm is presented for finding the largest axis aligned inscribed rectangle in a general polygon. ...
