Flame Spray Pyrolysis (FSP) is a manufacturing technique to mass produce engineered nanoparticles for applications in catalysis, energy materials, composites, and more. FSP instruments are highly dependent on a number of adjustable parameters, including fuel injection rate, fuel-oxygen mixtures, and temperature, which can greatly affect the quality, quantity, and properties of the yielded nanoparticles. Optimizing FSP synthesis requires monitoring, analyzing, characterizing, and modifying experimental conditions.Here, we propose a hybrid CPU-GPU Difference of Gaussians (DoG)method for characterizing the volume distribution of unburnt solution, so as to enable near-real-time optimization and steering of FSP experiments. Comparisons against standard implementations show our method to be an order of magnitude more efficient. This surrogate signal can be deployed as a component of an online end-to-end pipeline that maximizes the synthesis yield.

Flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) is a process used to synthesize nanoparticles through the combustion of an atomized precursor solution; this process has applications in catalysts, battery materials, and pigments. Current limitations revolve around unders
tanding how to consistently achieve a stable flame and the reliable production of nanoparticles. Machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms that detect unstable flame conditions in real time may be a means of streamlining the synthesis process and improving FSP efficiency. In this study, the FSP flame stability is first quantified by analyzing the brightness of the flames anchor point. This analysis is then used to label data for both unsupervised and supervised machine learning approaches. The unsupervised learning approach allows for autonomous labelling and classification of new data by representing data in a reduced dimensional space and identifying combinations of features that most effectively cluster it. The supervised learning approach, on the other hand, requires human labeling of training and test data, but is able to classify multiple objects of interest (such as the burner and pilot flames) within the video feed. The accuracy of each of these techniques is compared against the evaluations of human experts. Both the unsupervised and supervised approaches can track and classify FSP flame conditions in real time to alert users of unstable flame conditions. This research has the potential to autonomously track and manage flame spray pyrolysis as well as other flame technologies by monitoring and classifying the flame stability.
The Fe-doped CuO thin films were deposited onto glass substrates by Spray pyrolysis technique. The structural, micro-structural, optical and electrical properties of the synthesized samples were investigated in details. The X-Ray diffraction (XRD), R
aman and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, confirmed that the studied samples exhibit single phase monoclinic structure of CuO. The UV-VIS spectrophotometer mentioned that the transmittance increases to 80 % when increasing the Fe concentration. Furthermore, the band gap energy of the obtained CuO was 1.29 eV. This value was slightly increased by the Fe substitution. In addition, the electrical properties of the films such as the conductivity, the mobility, the resistivity and the carrier concentration have been studied. The Hall Effect measurements confirmed the p-type conductivity of the studied films.
In this work thin films of the La1-xSrxCoO3 (0.05 < x < 0.26) compound were grown, employing the so-called spray pyrolysis process. The as-grown thin films exhibit polycrystalline microstructure, with uniform grain size distribution, and observable p
orosity. Regarding their electrical transport properties, the produced thin films show semiconducting-like behavior, regardless the Sr doping level, which is most likely due to both the oxygen deficiencies and the grainy nature of the films. Furthermore, room temperature current-voltage (I-V) measurements reveal stable resistance switching behavior, which is well explained in terms of space-charge limited conduction mechanism. The presented experimental results provide essential evidence regarding the engagement of low cost, industrial-scale methods of growing perovskite transition metal oxide thin films, for potential applications in random access memory devices.
Although the object detection and recognition has received growing attention for decades, a robust fire and flame detection method is rarely explored. This paper presents an empirical study, towards a general and solid approach to fast detect fire an
d flame in videos, with the applications in video surveillance and event retrieval. Our system consists of three cascaded steps: (1) candidate regions proposing by a background model, (2) fire region classifying with color-texture features and a dictionary of visual words, and (3) temporal verifying. The experimental evaluation and analysis are done for each step. We believe that it is a useful service to both academic research and real-world application. In addition, we release the software of the proposed system with the source code, as well as a public benchmark and data set, including 64 video clips covered both indoor and outdoor scenes under different conditions. We achieve an 82% Recall with 93% Precision on the data set, and greatly improve the performance by state-of-the-arts methods.
Synthesizing images of the eye fundus is a challenging task that has been previously approached by formulating complex models of the anatomy of the eye. New images can then be generated by sampling a suitable parameter space. In this work, we propose
a method that learns to synthesize eye fundus images directly from data. For that, we pair true eye fundus images with their respective vessel trees, by means of a vessel segmentation technique. These pairs are then used to learn a mapping from a binary vessel tree to a new retinal image. For this purpose, we use a recent image-to-image translation technique, based on the idea of adversarial learning. Experimental results show that the original and the generated images are visually different in terms of their global appearance, in spite of sharing the same vessel tree. Additionally, a quantitative quality analysis of the synthetic retinal images confirms that the produced images retain a high proportion of the true image set quality.
