The quality of dehydrated instant rice produced by a few selected processing methods with short grain milled rice was evaluated. Instant rice produced by process 2 had high rehydration rate, and those by processes 1 and 2 revealed light brown color with less lightness. Instant rice produced by processes 1 and 2 with ammonium carbonate treatment had more uniform porous microstructure, as shown by SEM micrographes, and microstructural difference was noticed between instant rice prepared with government rice and Akibari. Instant rice produced by processes 1 and 2 had less sensory color score, and those by processes 2 and 4 had higher sensory cohesiveness. Overall quality of instant rice produced by process 2 was better, except color.

The baking properties of gluten-free rice bread with different percentages of corn starch and waxy corn starch were investigated. The specific gravity and color (L, a, b) of the dough as well as the appearance, color (L, a, b) and texture of the rice bread were analyzed. Replacement of rice flour with 1, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% corn starch did not have a significant effect on the specific gravity and color of the dough. The volume and specific volume of the rice bread showed an increasing trend as the amount of added corn starch increased. The chewiness, gumminess and hardness of the rice bread showed a decreasing trend as the amount of added corn starch increased. Replacement of rice flour with 1, 5 and 10% waxy corn starch did not have a significant effect on the specific gravity and color of the dough. The color of the rice bread showed an increasing trend as the amount of added waxy corn starch increased. These results suggest that replacement of rice flour with 7.5% corn starch or 1% waxy corn starch is effective for gluten-free rice bread.

In this research, we added 10%, 20% and 30% of white rice powder and colored rice powder to wheat flour, then baked cakes to appraise the quality of each cake by physical and sensory evaluation The resultsare as follows: 1) The specific gravity was increased in order of rice powder-added batters and colored rice powder-added batters. No remarkable difference was found in expansion ratio of cakes except some reduction in 30% rice powder-added cake. 2) Gumminess of cake was higher in the 30% colored rice-added cake Hardness of rice-added cakes was higher than colored rice-added ones. More adding rate of rice, higher hardness of cake. No remarkable difference was found in chewiness, springiness and cohesiveness of cakes 3) In case of color, rice-added cakes showed more L value and less b value than colored rice-added ones. Colored rice-added cakes showed less L value more a value and less b value as adding rate became higher 4) According to the results of sensory evaluation, no remarkable difference was found in the size of a cell and distribution of cells. Crumb and tenderness tended to be lower in rice added cakes than in colored rice added ones. Color was prefered in 30% colored rice added cakes over rice-added cakes and less added colored rice added cakes.

To examine the effect of obesity on volume perception according to size and color of rice bowl, we divided female college students into a normal weight group (<30% fat mass, n=100) and obese group (${\geq}30%$ fat mass, n=83) and then measured perceived volume of rice bowls of various sizes (general size; 350 ml vs. small size; 188 ml) and color (yellow, white, blue, and black) containing the same amount of cooked white rice (210 g). Normal weight group perceived that the general rice bowl contained significantly more cooked white rice compared to the small rice bowl. In contrast, the obese group perceived that the general rice bowl contained significantly less cooked white rice than the small rice bowl. The estimated variance in perceived volume of both bowls was significantly bigger in the obese group compared to the normal group. There were no differences in perceived volume among any of the subjects (both normal and obese groups) according to rice bowl color. However, the estimated variance in perceived volume in the obese group was significantly larger than that in the normal group for all of the rice bowls. In conclusion, rice bowl size and color might affect volume perception, and volume perception in obese people may be different from that of normal weight people.

Prediction of rice yield during a growing season would be very helpful to magnify rice yield as it also allows better farm practices to maximize yield with greater profit and lesser costs. UAV imagery based automatic detection of rice can be a relevant solution for early prediction of yield. So, we propose an image processing technique to predict rice yield using low altitude UAV images. We proposed $L^*a^*b^*$ color space based image segmentation algorithm. All images were captured using UAV mounted RGB camera. The proposed algorithm was developed to find out rice grain area from the image background. We took RGB image and applied filter to remove noise and converted RGB image to $L^*a^*b^*$ color space. All color information contain in both $a^*$ and $b^*$ layers and by using k-mean clustering classification of these colors were executed. Variation between two colors can be measured and labelling of pixels was completed by cluster index. Image was finally segmented using color. The proposed method showed that rice grain could be segmented and we can recognize rice grains from the UAV images. We can analyze grain areas and by estimating area and volume we could predict rice yield.

Image analysis was performed with two color systems, Red-Green-Blue (RGB) values and normalized Hue-Saturation-Intensity (HSI). We conducted field studies in Cheongju to determine canopy spectral reflectance and digital image analysis of rice. Spectral reflectance measurements made with a portable spectrometer(LI-1800) correlated with growing stage and digital images for rice. Images in which the color was specified by the common RGB coordinates could be used when there was a sharp contrast between the color of the rice and that of the field soil. In the absence of sharp contrast, identification of the rice covered area was much easer after the color had been transformed into HSI coordinates. This study introduced fundamental theories in digital image analysis and applied that for field situations rice.

Glutinous rice dduk, traditional Korean rice cake, was prepared using rice(white glutinous rice, brown glutinous rice, black glutinous rice, gaba glutinous rice) as a meal alternative, and each of their quality characteristics were compared. This study had checked sensory tests, color differences, moisture contents, texture characteristics, and storage lives of dduk during storage at room temperature for 6 days. The moisture contents of black glutinous rice dduk scored the highest. For color properties, gaba glutinous rice dduk was darker with a decreased yellow value, whereas its red value was higher comparing with that of brown glutinous rice dduk. The results of the preference test showed that appearance, flavor, texture, and overall preference were the highest in white glutinous rice dduk, whereas black glutinous rice dduk showed the lowest score. The results of the color difference test showed that softness, viscoelasticity, and fineness were the highest in white glutinous rice dduk, whereas black glutinous rice dduk showed the highest difference in color. For individual textural characteristics, black glutinous rice dduk showed the highest score, whereas white glutinous rice dduk showed the lowest scores in hardness, chewiness, and gumminess. In the results of the textural characteristics of dduk during storage, white glutinous rice dduk showed the highest increase in hardness after 48 hours, whereas black glutinous rice dduk showed the lowest increase. White glutinous rice dduk showed the highest increases in chewiness and gumminess. Cohesiveness decreased in all glutinous rice dduk. In the results of fungal occurrence in dduk during storage, black and gaba glutinous rice dduk showed increased fungi occurrence compared with white and brown glutinous rice dduk after 6 days. In conclusion, the overall preference for glutinous rice dduk made from different rice is more affected by appearance or texture than flavor.

The degree of maturity of rice greatly affects the quality of the rice, including factors such as the integrity of grains, color, and the nutritive components. Green Rice$^{(R)}$ is rice (Oryza sativa L.) that has been harvested earlier than brown rice and appears green in color. To determine suitable harvesting time of the Jinbu variety of Green Rice$^{(R)}$ in Gyeonggido, rice samples harvested on 23, 26 and 42 days after heading (DAH) were compared on their yield, color intensity, and proximate compositions. The maximum paddy yield of Green Rice$^{(R)}$ was 61.4% at 23 DAH, which decreased to 45.4%, 5.5% at 26 and 42 DAH, respectively. Greenness was darker at 23 DAH ($-0.27{\pm}0.03$), and significantly weaker (p<0.05) at 26 DAH ($0.07{\pm}0.01$) and at 42 DAH ($5.25{\pm}0.08$). All proximate compositions, except carbohydrate, including moisture, crude fat, protein, ash and total minerals were higher in the earlier-harvested Green rice$^{(R)}$ than in brown rice, without variations among the 23 and 26 DAH Green rice$^{(R)}$. Overall, the optimum harvest time of Jinbu Green Rice$^{(R)}$ at Gyeonggido would be 23 DAH. We suggest that timely harvesting could be a potent determinant of the quality of Green Rice$^{(R)}$.

The author made rice cookies using 100% rice and measured their density, spreadability, color, hardness, and fatty acid contents. The density was not significantly different between wheat cookies and the rice cookies made here; however, the density of dough tended to be higher in the rice cookies. Spreadability tended to be lower in rice cookies than wheat cookies. Regarding the color of rice cookies, L, indicating brightness, was found to be higher in rice cookies than in wheat cookies, and a, indicating redness, was found to be lower in rice cookies than in wheat cookies. B, indicating yellowness, was not significantly different between wheat cookies and rice cookies, and hardness tended to be lower in rice cookies. Regarding fatty acid contents, saturated fatty acids such as myristic acids, palmitic acids, and stearic acids were found in rice cookies; However, the contents of saturated fatty acids tended to be lower in rice cookies than in wheat cookies. The monounsaturated fatty acids found in rice cookies were mainly oleic acids, and the polyunsaturated fatty acids found in them were linoleic acid, and these were found more in rice cookies than in wheat cookies. Concerning essential fatty acids such as linoleic acids, linolenic acids, or arachidonic acids, they were found more in cookies made of rice powder than in those made of wheat powder.
