Distinctive features of recognition for documents printed in the Romanian transitional alphabets

In this paper, we summarize the research of digitization of documents printed by Romanian transitional alphabet. These printings are the most original Romanian historical documents, which makes our experience useful when researching OCR methods for similar alphabets. The current work is focused to OCR that is the first stage of scanned documents digitization. The technique of OCR of documents, printed in the Romanian transitional alphabet, is presented. In particular, this technique is embedded in our digitization platform HeDy. A series of examples is presented to demonstrate the application of the described technique

Solving Problems in Various Domains by Hybrid Models of High Performance Computations

This work presents a hybrid model of high performance computations. The model is based on membrane system (P~system) where some membranes may contain quantum device that is triggered by the data entering the membrane. This model is supposed to take advantages of both biomolecular and quantum paradigms and to overcome some of their inherent limitations. The proposed approach is demonstrated through two selected problems: SAT, and image retrieving

Management of innovation projects: financial risks

Management of innovative projects requires a deep assessment of various risks, and financial risks here are especially important. Management of financial risks in the field of innovative activity significantly affects the efficiency of the whole work. It is also one of the most important components of the project activity. The article describes research results of the main target segments for planning a program of financial risk management. The research is based on a cluster analysis that describes the most significant groups of risk factors. Enterprises implementing innovative projects need to pay special attention to these factors, especially when developing various measures for the formation and development of innovative activities and the management of various risks

Productive and biological features of breeding Irish pigs of various genotypes in Western Siberia

The present work studies the productive and biological characteristics of breeding Irish pigs of different genotypes in the conditions of Western Siberia. Pure-bred selection of Large White pigs (WP) was used in the first control group and intra-breed selection of Landrace pigs (LP) was used in the second control group. The following patterns of interbreeding were used in the experimental groups: ♀WP × ♂LP (third group), ♀LP × ♂WP (fourth group). In terms of reproductive qualities, the best combination should be considered the selection of ♀WP × ♂LP, in which 8.1% (p <0.05) more piglets were obtained at 30 days, with a 10.0% (p <0.05) higher weight of the nest at 30 days and 3.6% (p <0.05) greater safety than in the first control group. The combination of breeds according to the ♀LP × ♂WP scheme contributed to an increase in the average daily 13.7% (p <0.05) gain in live weight of the resulting offspring. At the age of 4 months, piglets of the LP × WP genotype had a 10.9% (p <0.05) higher content of total protein in the blood serum than in animals of the Large White breed. The muscle tissue of Large White pigs was characterized by a 5.2% (p <0.05) higher moisture binding capacity in relation to Landrace pigs. The melting point of fatty tissue was lower in Large White pigs by 14.3% (p <0.05). The fatty tissue of LP × WP hybrids has a 10.0% higher melting point (p <0.05) in contrast to Large White pigs
