Automatic Classification of Graphite Flake in Cast Iron using Neural Network
Abstract
The traditional method to classify graphite flakes which gives different properties to the cast iron is based on subjective observation of microstructure image which is compared with reference charts from ISO-945. This method is slow, less accurate and involves large computation. To overcome these disadvantages, number of experiments has taken place to automate classification process. These involve extracting features like fractal dimension, roughness, auto-regression and shape of the flakes which involves large computation and take huge operating time.
In this paper, the method is explained to automate the classification of flakes using Artificial Neural

This process is called ‘Blob Extraction’ or ‘Region Detection’.
The labeling algorithm states that assign same label number to pixels which are adjacent to each other where adjacency of pixels is determined based on 4-connectivity or 8-connectivity rule.
Area of a flake is number of pixels with same label. Mathematically, it is described as follows:
Area(i)=∑▒〖p(i)〗
Where i=1 to n, number of flakes in a zone and p (i) is pixel with label i.
Inter particle distance: Inter particle distance is defined as the minimum distance between the two flakes under consideration. It is the minimum among the distance calculated between every boundary pixel of one flake to every boundary pixel of the other.
Inter particle distance(i,j)=min[d_(m,n) (i,j)]
d_(m,n) (i,j)=sqrt( (x_m-x_n )^2+(y_m-y_n )^2)
Where m, n are the number of boundary points of flake i, j respectively, (x_m, y_m), (x_n,y_n) are x and y coordinates of boundary point of i, j flakes respectively.
Chord length: Chord length is the number of pixels between boundary points of the flake which is counted row or column wise. Here, we chose both minimum and maximum chord length of the flake to training the
Then it passes through canny edge detection technique. It provides a binary image with wrinkle edges as shown in Fig. 4(a). The white pixels of the wrinkle area give information about wrinkle present in the facial image. In binary image, binary value 1 is used for white pixel, and binary value 0 is for black pixel. So, sum of the pixel values of wrinkle area in binary face image is directly proportional to wrinkle present in the face as shown in Fig. 4(b).
You told my partner and I to change the color of things that are different in our papers. Problem Statement: You have a pool table with pockets only in the four corners. If a ball is always shot from the bottom left corner at 45°, and it always bounces at 45° , how many times will it bounce before it lands in a pocket? I worked with a partner, but I spent more time on bigger dimensions and a table of our data, while my partner spent more time on smaller dimensions Pool Table Dimensions Number of Rebounds Corner it lands in(A, B, C, or D) 1x1 0 C 10x10 0 C 2x1 1 B 2x4 1 D 3x6 1 D 2x6 2 C 2x7 2 B 2x8 3 D 8x12 3 B 2x3 3 B 10x6 6 C 30x18 6 C 2x4 8 D 3x8 9 D 4x7 9 B 4x10 9 B 5x7 10 C 7x10 15 D 19x10 25 C 19x20

In our algorithm, we have already taken a good quality of image. 3) Binarize To binarize the image the ridges are denotted by black and furrow are denotted by the white.
Spattered blood is a random distribution of bloodstains that vary in size that may be produced by many mechanisms. The size and quantity of spatters produced by a single mechanism vary significantly. The amount of available blood and the amount of force applied to the blood affect the size range of spatters. Spatter is created when sufficient force is available to overcome the surface tension of the blood. The amount of force applied to a source of blood and the size of the resulting spatter vary considerably with gunshot, beating and stabbing events.
He uses actual line to define shapes such as the side of the mountain. He indicates depth by causing the area that is
In fact, in a picture of rain, there are ripples surrounding the raindrop’s hitting the water. The ripples in the water and the distance naturally created is portrayed in the pictures. Accordingly, the illustrator uses techniques to create distance between objects. For instance, when two girls and a dog are enjoying the rain the reader is able to see the scenery from a distance. These elements help to enhance the experience that a reader feels towards the book’s message; to enjoy the weather and
The balance of an object mainly involves the dissemination of mass in the object. In a myriad of aspects, balancing yourself or an object can be extremely different especially when we all odds such as gravity is stacked against you. As an example, some teenagers find it hard to balance school, sports and a job. With so much stress and various loads of duties it becomes too heavy for them to handle, and without the right balancing techniques, they can certainly tip over and fall. The same idea applies to the human body and objects in different situations.
A conventional artwork and drawing can be converted into graphic by scanning into digital form. Graphic can be categorized into two types, Bitmap Graphic and Vector Graphic. Bitmap graphic is made up of many dots arranged in matrix and specific order while Vector graphic is stored as a mathematical formula. Thus, Bitmap graphic does not require special software to read because no processing is require before displaying it. However, due to this reason, it occupies more space compared to Vector graphic and take longer time to transfer over network.
Lastly, the lab results were evaluated using the Support Vector Machine for classification and the small-scale in-the-wild
The four test specimens are all made from cold drawn steel. When steel is cold drawn, the crystal structure changes and creates stress. The stress in the grains can be reduced by the process of annealing. Quenching creates small stresses because carbon does not have time to escape. The annealing process is when
From the beginning of Nickel and Dimed and Scratch Beginnings, the question posed is the same: “Does the American Dream still exist in the modern America?” And while liberal and conservative commentators will openly contradict each other and argue the viability of making it from almost nothing in this modern age, all that is hearsay. Ehrenreich and Shepard, the authors of Nickel and Dimed and Scratch Beginnings respectively, tried to go beyond what the commentators were doing and prove whether the American dream was still alive by embarking on their own separate case studies. And while, it is imaginable that anyone can rise from rags to as, Shepard stated “[to] slightly better rags,” the how to do this is the item in question. The American
