Ez a cikk arra a kérdésre keresi a választ, hogy szükségeseke ezek az összetett modellek, vagy egyszerűbb módszerek segítségével is elérhető hasonló eredmény. A munka során ezért egy egyszerűbb lineáris regressziós modellt készítettünk, és ennek hatékonyságát mértük a kioldódási görbék becslésében. A vizsgálattal arra a következtetésre jutottunk, hogy az eredmények ugyan nem annyira pontosak, mint a komplexebb módszerek esetében, ellenben a modell robosztusabb és kevesebb minta esetében is használható.

The prediction of the dissolution profile based on spectroscopic data is an alternative to the current destructive and time-consuming method. Raman and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopies are two complementary methods, that provide information on the physical and chemical properties of the tablets and can help in predicting their dissolution profiles. This work aims to compare the information collected by these methods to support the decision of which measurements should be used so that the accuracy requirement of the industry is met . Artificial neural network models were created, in which the spectroscopy data and the measured compression curves were used as an input individually and in different combinations in order to estimate the dissolution profiles. It was found that , using only the NIR transmission method along with the compression force data or the Raman and NIR reflection methods , the dissolution profile was estimated within the acceptance limits of the f2 similarity factor.

Void-detection methods have been investigated in this paper, which are able to identify and measure voids in meniscus-shaped solder joints of surface mounted components automatically. In the experiment, 0603 size resistors (1.5 x 0.75 mm) were soldered onto a testboard, and X-ray images were acquired about the samples then. The image processing methods for the void detection were implemented in OpenCV-Python. At first, the properties of the images were analyzed (for example, calculating the histogram), and then the area, including the resistor and solder pads, was extracted by masking. Several methods were investigated for identifying voids in the images; Canny edge detection, global- and adaptive thresholding, and blob detection algorithm. The accuracy of the extraction methods was evaluated by identifying voids on a test image manually and comparing the results to that provided by the different methods. Canny edge detection was the best in our case, but global thresholding and blob detection are also promising solutions.}, year = {2022}, pages = {1-4} }
