Metabolites in Modern Medicine: Decoding the Future of Health and Diseases
Abstract: The end products of many metabolic processes in cells are called metabolites. Each reaction contributes a specific metabolite. Metabolites act as fingerprints of on-going biological processes. Constant changes in cellular composition due to both environmental and internal factors. By analysing the types and presence of metabolites, scientists can effectively reconstruct the inner workings of a cell or organism. In the past, analysing metabolites was a slow and tedious process, often …

Image Segmentation by Grouping Pixels in Color and Image Space Simultaneously using DBSCAN Clustering Algorithm
Abstract: In this paper, the authors propose a technique for image segmentation by integrating the spatial connectivity and color features of pixels. Taking into account that an image can be considered as a dataset in which each pixel has a spatial location and a color value, color image segmentation can be obtained by clustering these pixels into different groups of coherent spatial connectivity and color. To discover clusters in spatial databases …
