Recent Trends in Production, Characterization, and Utilization of Fungal Chitosan
Abstract: Chitosan is the second most abundant biopolymer in nature after cellulose that can be extracted from marine sources, as well as from agricultural waste products such as mushrooms or other fungal sources following chitin deacetylation. The consistent production of these glycans by fungi is unaffected by seasonal changes, allowing for precise process control. This results in a more consistent quality of the final product. Currently, crustacean shells and other marine …

Redundant Keypoint Elimination Using Redundancy Index on Basic SIFT Algorithm
Abstract: ABSTRACT Matching features across different images is a common problem in computer vision. For the images of different scales and rotations, there is the need of scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT). SIFT identifies the distinctive keypoints that are invariant to location, scale, rotation, robust to affine transformations (changes in scale, rotation, shear, and position) and changes in illumination, which are usable for object recognition. SIFT algorithm includes two main stages: feature …
