Homogenization is a process of achieving homogeneity through out a product by particle size modification. it is characterized into three major categories:-ultrasonic pressure homogenization, pressure homogenization mechanical homogenizer. Application of homogenization are diverse in food industry, chemical industry, pharmaceutical and chemical industry. Most important use of homogenization process in food industry is in milk homogenization. Selection criteria of homogenizers depends on particular application.

Artificial Intelligence is both the intelligence of machine, electronics and the branch of Computer which aim to create it. AI has produced many significant and impressive products even at this early stage in its development. Although no one can predict the future in details, it is clear that computers with human-level intelligence would have a huge impact on our everyday lives and on the future course of civilization. Robot simply acts as an active agent whose environment is the physical world the active part rules out rocks, the artificial part rules out pure software agents or soft bots, whose environment consists of computer, file systems, database and networks. In this paper, the concepts of surgical robots, how robotically assisted brain surgery performed and their benefits are discussed. The first generations of surgical robots are already being installed in a number of operating rooms around the world. Compared with traditional surgery, the Robotically-assisted brain surgery is very useful.

This paper is devoted on impact of post harvest losses at stages of operations. The data balances of food supplied were analyzed and quantified to indicate poor processing and storage facilities in the study Zone Post harvest losses significantly endanger the livelihood of stakeholders and farmers across the value chain by reducing valuable income and profitability. Research has shown that reduction of just one percent in post harvest losses can lead a gain of 40 million USD annually.Government investment will lead to huge reduction in post harvest and increase income levels of actors across various agricultural value chain. Over the past half a century in developing countries with the exception of Ganye, Adamawa State-Nigeria had seen labor saving post harvest system engineering, adopted at unprecedented levels. Post harvest activities in the zone had created power bottle around threshing/shelling of maize, cowpea and groundnut but with adoption of post harvest machines, it had helped and enhance low unit cost with economic impact of 40 percent in the study. Information revealed from the study that farmers sale 20 percent of their grain due to problem of storage facilities. The general grain losses and waste responded by 52 percent of famers is 15-20 percent in the study zone. Quality of grain after post harvest operation with photo type machines is recorded fairly good.

The present study is a modest attempt to analyze the socio-economic impact of bank deposits. Deposit mobilization is an integral part of banking activity. Mobilization of savings through intensive deposit collection has been regarded as the major task of banking in India today. Acceptance of deposits is the primary function of Commercial Banks. As such deposit mobilization is one of the basic innovations in current Indian Banking activity. In this paper, an attempt is made to analyze the socio-economic impact of deposit mobilization. Three different types of deposits namely, term deposits, current deposit and savings deposit is considered for the study. The data required for the study has been collected from Union Bank of India Annual Reports. The data, thus collected have been properly classified and analyzed with the help of simple statistical parameters like Average, Indices etc and also the accounting technique i.e. Ratio Analysis. The results shows that, there has been a remarkable growth in mobilization of all kinds of deposits in Union Bank of India.

The nonlinear absorption and refraction indices for 2,3-Diaminopyridine solution were measured using open-and closed- aperture z-scan techniques, with continuous wave (cw) irradiation. Furthermore, diffraction rings pattern as a result of nonlinear refraction was observed. The effect of concentration, wavelength and laser intensity on the nonlinear absorption, nonlinear refraction and diffraction rings are studied experimentally. It is found that the nonlinear refraction and absorption indexes in order of 10-8 cm2/W and10-3 cm/W, respectively. We suggested an opportunity to form a new nonlinear-optical media for nonlinear optical application.

The Rice milling is the process that helps in removal of hulls and bran's from paddy grains to produce polished rice. Rice is rich in genetic diversity with thousands of varieties grown throughout the world. Rice has been one of man's most important foods. Today, this unique grain helps sustain two-thirds of the world's population. It is life for thousands of millions of people. It is deeply embedded in the cultural heritage of their societies. About four-fifths of the world's rice are produced by small-scale farmers and are consumed locally.Milling is the process wherein the rice grain is transformed into a form suitable for human consumption, therefore, has to be done with utmost care to prevent breakage of the kernel and improve the recovery.the present paper lucidly explains ricce milling process and its importance

In areas such as computer vision and image processing, image segmentation has been and still is a relevant research area due to its wide spread usage and application. The traditional segmentation technique which is used in gray-scale mathematical morphology is watershed transform. Region Growing is an approach to image segmentation in which neighbouring pixels are examined and added to a region class if no edges are detected. This process is iterated for each boundary pixel in the region. In this paper, we made enhancements in watershed algorithm and region growing algorithm for image and color segmentation. The new enhanced algorithm is implemented in MATLAB and results are compared with the existing technique in the form of visualization and on the basis of Liu's F- factor values.

This paper concentrates on the identification of Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system by means of a hybrid-learning rule, which combines the back propagation and the Least Mean Squared (LMS) to identify parameters. We construct a neuro fuzzy model structure, and generate the membership function from the measured data. The MIMO system model is represented as a set of coupled input-output MISO models of the Takagi- Sugeno type. Neuro fuzzy model of the system structure is incorporated easily in the structure of the model. The simulation is used to implement a MIMO spacecraft system using Matlab for moment_yaw, moment_pitch, and moment_roll as input, and velocity in inertial axis as output. Experimental results are given to show the effectiveness of this Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy System (ANFIS) model. This paper attempts to present a neural inverse control design framework for a class of nonlinear multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with uncertainties. This research effort is motivated by the following considerations: (a) An appropriate reference model that accurately represents the desired system dynamics is usually assumed to exist and to be available, and yet in reality this is not the case often times; (b) In real world applications, there are many cases where controls are constrained within a physically allowable range, which presents another layer of difficulties to directly apply the reference model based inverse control; (c) It is difficult to consider optimal control even for the reference model as in general the analytic solution to the optimal control problem is not available. The simulation study has been focused on the identification of Multiple Input, Single Output (MISO) non-linear complex systems.
