Presentation materials
Modern energy technologies, such as water electrolysis, fuel cells, photovoltaics and batteries require advanced materials which combine high performance, stability and economic viability. This presentation will highlight how materials science contributes to the development and technological deployment of materials using examples with industrial relevance. The presentation will specifically...
According to the WHO, over 55 million people worldwide were living with dementia in 2023, with associated health care costs reaching $1 trillion. Projections suggest these figures will double every two decades, highlighting a critical global health challenge. Advances in life sciences are expected to play a pivotal role within an increasingly aging population. [1]
The dysfunction of the...
This study examines U-Net and GAN architectures for image segmentation, focusing on remote sensing applications. U-Net excelled in structural segmentation, while GANs proved superior in texture reconstruction. Their integration offers a powerful solution for precise and complex segmentation tasks.
We consider toric dynamical systems, which are also called complex-balanced mass-action systems. These are remarkably stable polynomial dynamical systems that arise from the analysis of mathematical models of reaction networks. Given a reaction network, we study the moduli space of toric dynamical systems generated by this network, also called the toric locus of the network. The toric locus is...
This study aims to investigate neural network operators and their role in enhancing network performance, contributing to the development of advanced technologies, particularly in the field of medical diagnostics.
Date seeds, which constitute 10-15% of the fruit's weight, are often discarded, representing a missed opportunity for economic and nutritional benefits. This study explores the extraction of biocompounds from date seed residue using hydrophobic Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADES), which are environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional solvents. The primary objective was to determine...
The growing interest in consuming plant-based milk exceeds the issue of lactose intolerance, which has led manufacturers to look for other alternatives such as legume.
In this work, we studied an innovative extraction of a plant-based milk based on chickpeas.
An optimization of soaking and cooking temperature and time of chickpeas was made, via an experimental design, with a composite...
ChromaQuest aims to explore innovative ways to stabilize natural colourants from various biorefinery-derived biomass, aiming to replace synthetic dyes with safer, more sustainable alternatives for the food industry. By optimizing extraction and using co-pigmentation techniques, the project focuses on enhancing colour stability, while also tapping into the antioxidative and cytotoxic potential...
