Aplications of Neural Networks to Find the Impact of Water in Different Berry Components in Grapes

Grape juice composition during the different stages of berry growth was compared. The analytical data collected were used to investigate the relationships between some of the different components studied in these berries during the ripening period. Our goal is to study, with neural networks, the impact of water availability on Vitis vinifera L. cv. Tempranillo grape yields and juice composition over a three-year period.

Efficient Computing of some Vector Operations over GF(3) and GF(4)

The problem of efficient computing of the affine vector operations (addition of two vectors and multiplication of a vector by a scalar over GF (q)), and also the weight of a given vector, is important for many problems in coding theory, cryptography, VLSI technology etc. In this paper we propose a new way of representing vectors over GF (3) and GF (4) and we describe an efficient performance of these affine operations. Computing weights of binary vectors is also discussed.

Polynomial Automorphisms Over Finite Fields

It is shown that the invertible polynomial maps over a finite field Fq , if looked at as bijections Fn,q −→ Fn,q , give all possible bijections in the case q = 2, or q = p^r where p > 2. In the case q = 2^r where r > 1 it is shown that the tame subgroup of the invertible polynomial maps gives only the even bijections, i.e. only half the bijections. As a consequence it is shown that a set S ⊂ Fn,q can be a zero set of a coordinate if and only if #S = q^(n−1).
