This new volume, Deep Learning in Visual Computing and Signal Processing, covers the fundamentals and advanced topics in designing and deploying techniques using deep architectures and their application in visual computing and signal processing. The volume first lays out the fundamentals of deep learning as well as deep learning architectures and frameworks. It goes on to discuss deep learning in neural networks and deep learning for object recognition and detection models. It looks at the various specific applications of deep learning in visual and signal processing, such as in biorobotics, for automated brain tumor segmentation in MRI images, in neural networks for use in seizure classification, for digital forensic investigation based on deep learning, and more. Key features: Covers both the fundamentals and the latest concepts in deep learning Presents some of the diverse applications of deep learning in visual computing and signal processing Includes over 90 figures and tables to elucidate the text An enlightening amalgamation of deep learning concepts with visual computing and signal processing applications, this valuable resource will serve as a guide for researchers, engineers, and students who want to have a quick start on learning and/or building deep learning systems. It provides a good theoretical and practical understanding and complete information and knowledge required to understand and build deep learning models from scratch.

The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering of KIET Group of Institutions, Delhi-NCR organized the 4th International Conference ICCE-2020 during November 28-29, 2020. Information compiled in this book is based on the 114 research papers of excellent quality covering different domains of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology, Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering. The subject areas treated in the book are: Satellite, Radar and Microwave Techniques, Secure, Smart, and Reliable Networks, Next Generation Networks, Devices & Circuits, Signal & Image Processing, New Emerging Technologies, having the central focus on Recent Trends in Communication & Electronics (ICCE-2020). In addition, a few themes based on Special Sessions have also been conducted in ICCE-2020. The objective of the book resulting from the 4th International Conference on Recent Trends in Communication & Electronics (ICCE-2020) is to provide a resource for the study and research work for an interested audience comprising of researchers, students, audience, and practitioners in the areas of Communications & Computing Systems.

This volume covers a selection of important research in the multifaceted field of food toxicology. With more than seven billion people in the world today and counting, advances in food toxicology have a direct bearing on food safety issues that are of concern to all humanity for the foreseeable future. Massive globalization, industrialization, and commercialization have affected every aspect of food production, the food supply chain, and food consumption. This informative volume offers the global perspectives of scientists in important areas related to biomarkers and nanosensors in food toxicology, toxicology of nanomaterials, chemicals in sanitation and packaging, additives, mycotoxins, endocrine disruptors, radionuclides, toxic metals, and waste-burning residues in food. The book also emphasizes regulatory toxicology and includes an interesting example case study. The challenge of sustainable and safe food for everyone needs a multidisciplinary and multi-sectorial approach from related industries and governments alike. Food chemical safety is an underappreciated aspect of consumer safety, and this volume seeks to help fill that gap by providing informative research for food scientists and researchers and many others.

The fundamentals of abattoir establishments, slaughter procedures for quality meat production, scientific evaluation of food animals and carcasses are thus discussed in most effective manners. The sustainability of meat industry and meat food sector is basically dependant on abattoir by-products utilization. So different types of by-products generated in abattoir i.e. blood, hide and skin, intestines, bones, glandular by-products etc. are taken up in more understandable way. The waste generated and sanitary requirement of abattoir is also discussed in more realistic approach. All aspects of wool technology starting from shearing, sampling, wool structure, physico-chemical properties, processing and testing are elaborated in best possible efforts. The book will be of great value to serve the source of knowledge and information on these aspects for the persons engaged in meat and wool profession, business, planning and research.

The 2nd edition of book entitled "Principles of Meat Technology" has been designed and modified as per the recent requirement of the Veterinary Professionals and is entirely based on recent course-curriculum of Veterinary Council of India. All the topics included in VCI syllabus for Meat Science subject have been illustrated and discussed in detail with the supplementation of previous edition. The reference material and current scientific information on the subject has been updated which will be of immense value for meat processing industry and persons having some stakes in this subject. This book is broadly covering fresh meat and aquatic foods, their processing, preservation, packaging, standards and biotechnological applications in this specialized field with recent innovations. In this edition book will serve the purpose of impartation of knowledge, skill and update material to acquaint the students of Veterinary Science. It is also due to upgradation of each and every of the book with recent knowledge and innovations. The themes mentioned in the syllabus of VCI is very well covered particularly meat structure, product's quality, handling and processing is very well documented. So authors believe that efforts put in this edition of book in form of material, scientific facts and language will help in understanding the meat science to the students of veterinary science, food science and technology, fish technology, meat technologists, academicians of this field, technicians engaged and the processors of animals and fish products.
