The ascendency of the craft beer movement within brewing industry may be attributed to its commitment unique flavours and innovative styles. Mixed-culture fermentation, celebrated for novel organoleptic profiles, presents a modelling challenge due complex microbial dynamics. This study addresses inherent complexity mixed-culture fermentation while acknowledging condition monitoring limitations breweries, namely sporadic offline sampling rates limited available measurement parameters. A...
Ohmic heating is a highly efficient method for rapid fluid heating, with applications in fields such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemical engineering. Prior to its industrial application, thorough analysis modeling are crucial ensure safe operations. Therefore, this research focuses on the development validation of transfer function-based model continuous flow ohmic heater (CFOH). Validation metrics include root mean square error (RMSE) absolute percentage (MAPE). The developed...
An Online Instructor Training program at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse provides a three-week asynchronous training, focused on design, delivery, and facilitation online courses. OIT trainees from 2010 2011 participated in three-phase evaluation OIT. In Phase I, common conceptions (myths) about education were assessed both pre post II, provided data how influenced implementation new pedagogical strategies their courses, as well face-to-face III, additional in-depth qualitative themes...
Although LEGO sets have entertained generations of children and adults, the challenge designing customized builds matching complexity real-world or imagined scenes remains too great for average enthusiast. In order to make this feat possible, we implement a system that generates brick model from 2D images. We design novel solution problem uses an octree-structured autoencoder trained on 3D voxelized models obtain feasible latent representation reconstruction, separate network predict are...
Biederman's contemporary theory of basic visual object recognition (Recognition-by-Components) is based on structural descriptions objects and presumes 36 primitives (geons) people can discriminate, but there has been no empirical test the actual use these geons to visually distinguish objects. In this study, we tested for in discrimination by comparing performance patterns (when distinguishing varied stimuli) an acquired prosopagnosia patient (LB) healthy control participants. LB's left her...
