Natural leather is a product made from animal skin which is treated through chemical procedure to preserve it. It is used in the manufacture of clothing, bags, furniture, automobile material, among others. Because of its capital value in industry, it is important to ensure its quality. Traditional inspection by human experts is expensive, time-consuming, and subjective to human errors. Consequently, automatic l...
Recently, there has been a significant amount of attention towards computer vision algorithms, particularly those that focus on semantic segmentation applications. This is due to the availability of big data to train models, as well as the computational ability of these algorithms. Among the various computer vision applications, the U-Net has gained popularity due to its reliable accuracy, simplicity in constru...
The neurophysiological basis of width discrimination has been extensively studied in rodents and has shown that active and passive tactile discrimination engage fundamentally different neural networks. Although previous studies have analyzed active and passive tactile processing in humans, little is known about the neurophysiological basis of width discrimination in humans. Here we present a width discriminatio...
