Sommario/riassunto

Concentration on renewable resources, sustainability and replacement of oil based products are driving forces to reassess the potential of natural resources including natural colorants. The growing consumer interest in purchasing "green" products, which exhibit an improved environmental profile, can be seen as the break-through force needed to reintroduce natural colorants into the modern markets.  Written by scientists with specialised knowledge in the field, Handbook of Natural Colorants provides a unique source of information, summarising the present knowledge of natural colorant

Sommario/riassunto

The book introduces the latest methods and algorithms developed in machine and deep learning (hybrid symbolic-numeric computations, robust statistical techniques for clustering and eliminating data as well as convolutional neural networks) dealing not only with images and the use of computers, but also their applications to visualization tasks generalized by up-to-date points of view. Associated algorithms are deposited on iCloud.
