  • In this paper, we propose an algorithm that applies Rolle's theorem to automatically detect and label peak III and V of the normal, suprathreshold auditory brainstem response (ABR). ABR waveform were recorded from 55 normal-hearing ears at screening levels varying from 30 to 60 dBnHL. For each ABR waveform, the peak-finding algorithm proceeded in fourth steps: (1) Select maximum and minimum values of the target ABR waveform, (2) divide this range into n equal parts, (3) effective candidate peaks in the ABR waveform are identified using Rolle's theorem (4) peak III and V are identified from these candidate peaks based on their latency and morphology. As a result, proposed auto dectection method showed high correlation and accuracy with manual detection method performed by clinician. By using proposed algorithm, clinician can detect and label peak III and V faster and more efficient than manual detection method.

  • Background: The poultry industry suffers losses from problems as pale, soft and exudative (PSE), and dark, firm and dry (DFD) meat can develop in meat as a result of short- and long-term stress, respectively. These abnormalities are impacted by pre-slaughter animal welfare. Methods: This work evaluated the effects of open vehicle container microclimate, throughout the $38{\pm}10km$ journey from the farm to the slaughterhouse, on commercially turkey transported during the Brazilian winter season. The journey was initiated immediately after water bath in truck fitted with portable Kestrel anemometers to measure air ventilation, relative humidity, temperature and ventilation. Results: The inferior compartments of the middle and rear truck regions showed highest temperature and relative humidity, and lower air ventilation. In addition, the superior compartments of the front truck regions presented lower temperature and wind chill, and highest air ventilation. The breast meat samples from animals located at the inferior compartments of the middle and rear truck regions and subjected to with water bath (WiB) treatment presented highest DFD-like and had lowest PSE-like meat incidence than those from animals located at other compartments within the container. Lower incidence of PSE-like meat was observed in birds without water bath (WoB). Conclusions: Assessment on turkeys transported under Brazilian southern winter conditions revealed that breast meat quality can be affected by relative humidity, air ventilation, temperature, and transport under subtropical conditions promoting color abnormalities and the formation of simultaneously PSE-like and DFD-like meat.

  • To develop reliable 3D face recognition system, many researchers also have focused on 3D face data acquisition system. Previous many 3D face acquisition systems use visible patterns to solve corresponding problem, and this pattern made anyone who wants to be verified uncomfortable. In this paper, we propose a new invisible infrared line-laser pattern for 3D face data acquisition.
