A Real-Time and Robust Neural Network Model for Low-Measurement-Rate Compressed-Sensing Image Reconstruction.

Compressed sensing (CS) is a popular data compression theory for many computer vision tasks, but the high reconstruction complexity for images prevents it from being used in many real-world applications. Existing end-to-end learning methods achieved real time sensing but lack theory guarantee for robust reconstruction results. This paper proposes a neural network called RootsNet, which integrates the CS mechanism into the network to prevent error propagation.

Efficient Near-Field Radiofrequency Imaging of Impact Damage on CFRP Materials with Learning-Based Compressed Sensing.

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) is a widely-used composite material that is vulnerable to impact damage. Light impact damages destroy the inner structure but barely show obvious change on the surface. As a non-contact and high-resolution method to detect subsurface and inner defect, near-field radiofrequency imaging (NRI) suffers from high imaging times.

Encapsulation efficiency and oral delivery stability of chitosan-liposome-encapsulated immunoglobulin Y.

The degradation of acidic gastric juice on immunoglobulin Y (IgY) leads to destruction on the structural and loss of the bioactivity, limiting the bioavailability of oral IgY and its research or application in adjuvant treatment of diseases. In this work, it was surmounted with IgY-loaded chitosan-liposomes prepared by supercritical carbon dioxide-assisted method. A range of chitosan concentrations (0%, 0.

Preparation and characterization of egg yolk immunoglobulin loaded chitosan-liposome assisted by supercritical carbon dioxide.

The egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) loaded chitosan-liposomes (IgY-CS-LP) were prepared and assisted by supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO). The effects of phospholipid type and SCCO pressure on particle size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, structural properties and stabilities were investigated. The results showed that the liposomes prepared by egg yolk phosphatidylcholine (EPC) had better homogeneity and higher encapsulation rate than those by soybean phosphatidylcholine (SPC).

Nitroso-hemoglobin-ginger conjugates effects on bacterial growth and color stability in a minced beef model.

This study aims to enhance the color and microbiological qualities of a raw beef using natural ingredients. Nitroso-hemoglobin (NO-Hb) integrated with vitamin C (VC), calcium lactate, and ginger complexation were used as natural inhibitors against the growth of aerobic and pathogenic bacteria, namely (Escherichia coli (E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus (S.

Mechanism of enhancing foaming properties of egg white by super critical carbon dioxide treatment.

The effect of supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCD) treatment at varying processing time (30-90 min) on foaming and structure properties of egg white protein (EWP) were studied in this paper. The highest foaming ability (107.7%) was obtained after 60 min SCCD treatment, which was 3.

Study on structural, rheological and foaming properties of ovalbumin by ultrasound-assisted glycation with xylose.

This study was to evaluate the effect of ultrasound-assisted glycation with xylose on the foaming properties, physicochemical and structural characteristics of ovalbumin (OVA). The number of free amino groups in the glycated OVA (sOVA-X) significantly decreased with the increase of treatment time. The results obtained by circular dichroism (CD) and spectrofluorimetric measurements showed that there were slight changes on the subunits and secondary structure of OVA, indicating that the tertiary structure became more flexible and loose after the sonicated glycation treatment.

An Online MFL Sensing Method for Steel Pipe Based on the Magnetic Guiding Effect.

In order to improve the sensitivity of online magnetic flux leakage (MFL) testing for steel pipe, a sensing method based on the magnetic guiding effect is proposed and investigated in this paper. Compared to the conventional contact sensing method using a non-ferromagnetic support, the proposed method creatively utilizes a ferromagnetic one to guide more magnetic flux to leak out. Based on Hopkinson's law, the principle of the magnetic guiding effect of the ferromagnetic support is theoretically illustrated.

A Lift-Off-Tolerant Magnetic Flux Leakage Testing Method for Drill Pipes at Wellhead.

To meet the great needs for MFL (magnetic flux leakage) inspection of drill pipes at wellheads, a lift-off-tolerant MFL testing method is proposed and investigated in this paper.
