Biosynthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles using Brevibacterium casei.

The present study demonstrates an unprecedented green process for the production of spherical-shaped Au and Ag nanoparticles synthesized and stabilized using a bacterium, Brevibacterium casei. Aqueous solutions of chloroaurate ions for Au and Ag(+) ions for silver were treated with B. casei biomass for the formation of Au nanoparticles (AuNP) and Ag nanoparticles (AgNP).

Landcover classification in MRF context using Dempster-Shafer fusion for multisensor imagery.

This work deals with multisensor data fusion to obtain landcover classification. The role of feature-level fusion using the Dempster-Shafer rule and that of data-level fusion in the MRF context is studied in this paper to obtain an optimally segmented image. Subsequently, segments are validated and classification accuracy for the test data is evaluated.
