As per in vitro starch digestibility is concerned, slowly digestible starch (SDS) content as well as glycemic index (51–53) of the extrudates depressed with increasing BT and FM.

With the aim to understand the structure formation of FD products, the effects of fructose content on the texture and microstructure of FD matrix were investigated by using pectin–cellulose cryogel model. Cryogels containing fructose of 0–40% were produced using freeze-drying at three different primary drying temperatures of −40, −20, and 20°C. The resultant cryogels were characterized by texture profile analyzer, scanning electron microscope, and μCT. Results indicated that at drying temperature of −40°C, increasing fructose concentration promoted the hardness of the cryogels, and cryogels of 16% fructose obtained maximum hardness. Excessive fructose (≥20%) weakened the described hardness, while exhibiting stronger springiness and resilience. The microstructure showed that dense pores and increased wall thickness due to fructose aggregation were critical factors responsible for increased hardness. The porous structure as well as relatively large pore size were necessary for crispness, in addition, rigid pore wall with certain strength were also required. At the drying temperature of 20°C, large hetero-cavities dominated the microstructure of cryogels with 30% and 40% fructose, caused by melting inside during FD process.

This article describes a deconvolution neural network (DNN) for improving the resolution of tongue surface tactile imaging, which alleviates this tradeoff between tactile sensing performance and hardware simplicity. The model can work without high-resolution tactile imaging data of tongue surface: First, in the compression test using artificial tongues, the tactile image matrix (7 × 7) with low resolution can be acquired by sensor array with a sparse electrode arrangement. Then, through finite element analysis modeling, combined with the distribution rule of additional stress on the two-dimensional plane, the pressure data around the existing detection points are calculated, further expanding the tactile image matrix data amount. Finally, the DNN, based on its efficient nonlinear reconstruction attributes, uses the low-resolution and high-resolution tactile imaging matrix generated by compression test and finite element simulation, respectively, to train, and outputs high-resolution tactile imaging information (13 × 13) closer to the tactile perception of the tongue surface. The results show that the overall accuracy of the tactile image matrix calculated by this model is above 88%.

The flour blends with high-levels of SPC also had lower pasting viscosities. Thermal analysis showed lower enthalpy values and higher temperatures derived from starch gelatinization. When the SPC-rice flour blends were applied to extruded gluten-free rice noodles, the noodles tomographically showed a dense and compact structure, that could be favorably correlated with their textural changes (increased hardness and reduced extensibility).
