Providing a Desired Quality of BPG Compressed Images for FSIM Metric
PublicationIt is a common task in image lossy compression to provide a reasonable trade-off between a desired compression ratio (as large as possible) and an appropriate (preset according to a chosen metric) quality. Recently, a Better Portable Graphics (BPG) coder has been proposed that might become a new standard. A quality parameter Q is used in it to vary image quality and compression ratio. However, a given Q for particular images...

Soil contamination with geohelminths in children’s play areas in Szczecin, Poland
PublicationThe presence of invasive forms of parasites in the soil represents a potential threat to public health, especially for children. The aim of the study was to determine the degree of contamination with geohelminth eggs of soil samples collected from sandpits and playgrounds in the Szczecin area. The findings showed overall prevalence of soil samples contaminated with geohelminth eggs in the soil and sand...

Strontium-based nanosized phosphates as anticorrosive fi llers of epoxy and polyurethane coating compositions
PublicationAnticorrosive epoxy and polyurethane coatings were compounded using zinc-free nanosized phosphates of strontium (SP) or strontium and aluminum (SAP). For comparison, a nanosized calcium aluminum ammonium phosphate (CAP) and a microsized zinc phosphate (ZP) were tested. Results of salts spray and cyclic corrosion tests revealed better anticorrosive properties of the SAP-based coatings...
