Penerapan Metode Color Filtering dan Learning Vector Quantization dalam Penentuan Tingkat Kematangan Cake Dasar Putih

Cake merupakan panganan yang terbuat dari campuran bahan-bahan seperti tepung, gula, telur, garam, susu, aroma dan lemak yang dikembangkan dengan atau tanpa bahan pengembang. Penentuan tingkat kematangan cake dasar putih dilakukan berdasarkan grade warna permukaan pada saat proses pemanggangan. Namun hal ini sering menjadi kendala karena faktor persepsi komposisi warna setiap orang berbeda-beda. Pengambilan data citra menggunakan kamera 3.2 mp dan 13 mp, setelah itu citra disegmentasi dengan color filtering untuk membuang pixels yang mengandung efek lighting. Tahap selanjutnya yaitu ekstraksi ciri warna RGB kemudian dilakukan pelatihan dengan metode Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ). Hasilnya aplikasi mampu menentukan tingkat kematangan kue cake dasar putih dengan rata-rata akurasi 65,19% dan cake dasar cokelat sebagai kelas validasi 96,88% untuk kamera 3.2 mp sementara pada kamera 13 mp rata-rata akurasi 64,93% dan cake dasar cokelat sebagai kelas validasi yaitu 93,75%.

Sensing what fish feel about passage through three different low-head hydropower turbines

Knowing the kinds of physical stress experienced by fish passing through hydropower turbines can help optimise technologies and improve fish passage. This paper assesses the hydraulic conditions experienced through three different low-head turbines, taken using an autonomous sensor: a VLH, Archimedes screw and horizontal Kaplan turbine. A total of 127 Sensor Fish deployments were undertaken across all three turbines, generating 82 valid datasets. Decompression was rare at the VLH and screw turbines and rarely fell more than 10 kPa below atmospheric pressure. In contrast, the Kaplan was capable of generating pressures as low as 55.5 kPa (approximately 45 kPa below atmospheric pressure), over shorter periods of time. Severer ratios of pressure changes could therefore be expected for both surface and depth acclimated fish at the Kaplan when compared to the other turbines. Strike was another possible source of fish injury (detected in 69-100% of deployments), and although strike severity was highest at the Kaplan, strike was more likely to be encountered at the screw and VLH than the Kaplan turbine. Shear only occurred near the blades of the Kaplan and not at severe levels. The results demonstrate that low-head hydropower facilities are not without their risks for downstream migrating fish

Direct generation of local orbitals for multireference treatment and subsequent uses for the calculation of the correlation energy

We present a method that uses the one-particle density matrix to generate directly localized orbitals dedicated to multireference wave functions. On one hand, it is shown that the definition of local orbitals making possible physically justified truncations of the CAS ~complete active space! is particularly adequate for the treatment of multireference problems. On the other hand, as it will be shown in the case of bond breaking, the control of the spatial location of the active orbitals may permit description of the desired physics with a smaller number of active orbitals than when starting from canonical molecular orbitals. The subsequent calculation of the dynamical correlation energy can be achieved with a lower computational effort either due to this reduction of the active space, or by truncation of the CAS to a shorter set of references. The ground- and excited-state energies are very close to the current complete active space self-consistent field ones and several examples of multireference singles and doubles calculations illustrate the interest of the procedur

Tris(diphenylthiophosphinoyl)methanide as tripod ligand in rhodium(III), iridium(III) and ruthenium(II) complexes. Crystal structures of [(η5-C5Me5)Ir{η3-(SPPh2)3C-S,S′,S″}]BF4 and [(η6-MeC6H4Pri)Ru{η3-(SPPh2)3C-S,S′,S″}]BPh4

Reaction of the complex [{(η5-C5Me5)RhCl2}2], in CH2Cl2 solution, with AgBF4 (1:2 molar ratio) and (SPPh2)3CH leads to the cationic compound [(η5-C5Me5)RhCl{η2-(SPPh2)2CH(SPPh2)-S,S′}]BF4 (1) which is deprotonated by thallium(I) pyrazolate affording [(η5-C5Me5)Rh{η3-(SPPh2)3C−S,S′,S″}]BF4 (2a). The iridium dimer [(η5-C5Me5)IrCl2}2] reacts with silver salts and (SPPh2)3CH, in CH2Cl2 or Me2CO, under analogous conditions, affording mixtures of [(η5-C5Me5)IrCl{η2-(SPPh2)2)-S,S′}]+ and [(η5-C5Me5)Ir{η3-(SPPh2)3C-S,S′,S″}]A [A=BF4− (3a), PF6− (3b). Addition of Et3N to the mixture gives pure complexes 3. The ruthenium complexes [{η6j6-arene)RuCl2}2] (arene = C6Me6, p-MeC6H4Pri) react with (SPPh2)3CH, in the presence of AgA (A = PF6− or BF4−) or Na BPh4, in CH2Cl2 or Me2CO, yielding only the deprotonated complexes [(η6-arene)Ru{η3-(SPPH2)3C−S,S′,S″}]A [arene = C6Me6, A = BF4; arene = p-MeC6H4Pri, A - BPh4 (4a), PF6 (4b)]. The crystal structures of 3a and 4a were established by X-ray crystallography. Compound 3a crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna21, with lattice parameters a-41.477(6), b = 10.6778(11), c = 20.162(3) Å and Z=8. Complex 4a crystallizes in a monoclinic lattice, space group P21/n, with a = 20.810(4), b = 12.555(3), c = 23.008(4) Å, β = 95.82(2)° and Z = 4. Both cationic complexes exhibit analogous pseudo-octahedml molecular structures with the anionic (SPPh2)3C− ligand bonded via the three sulphur atoms in a tripodal, tridentate fashion. Each metal centre completes its coordination environment with a η5-C5Me5 (3a) or a η6-MeC6H4Pri group (4a). A quite interesting result concerns the non-planarity of the methanide carbon which display P−C−P angles in the range 112.6–114.4(5)° in 3a and 111.9–113.6(4)° in 4a. The redox chemistry of the complexes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The Rh(III) complexes are quasi-reversibly reduced to Rh(I) and the Ir(III) complex is irreversibly reduced to IKD in acetonitrile solutions. The Ru(II) complex undergoes a quasi-reversible reduction to Ru(I) and a reversible oxidation to Ru(III).We thank the 'Fondo de Desarrollo Cientifico y Tecnologico, Chile' (Grant No. 460/93-95), Direccion de Investigacion y Postgrado, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile (DlPUC), Fundacion Andes, Chile, and the Instituto de Cooperacion Iberoamericano, Spain, for financial support.Peer reviewe

Mutations in the histone methyltransferase gene KMT2B cause complex early-onset dystonia.

Histone lysine methylation, mediated by mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL) proteins, is now known to be critical in the regulation of gene expression, genomic stability, cell cycle and nuclear architecture. Despite MLL proteins being postulated as essential for normal development, little is known about the specific functions of the different MLL lysine methyltransferases. Here we report heterozygous variants in the gene KMT2B (also known as MLL4) in 27 unrelated individuals with a complex progressive childhood-onset dystonia, often associated with a typical facial appearance and characteristic brain magnetic resonance imaging findings. Over time, the majority of affected individuals developed prominent cervical, cranial and laryngeal dystonia. Marked clinical benefit, including the restoration of independent ambulation in some cases, was observed following deep brain stimulation (DBS). These findings highlight a clinically recognizable and potentially treatable form of genetic dystonia, demonstrating the crucial role of KMT2B in the physiological control of voluntary movement.Funding for the project was provided by the Wellcome Trust for UK10K (WT091310) and DDD Study.
