In this scientific research article, the community interested in digital image processing is introduced to the new application of Radon's transformation to segment images in grayscale, which allows the identification and classification of regions or objects, which can be extended to color images. Results obtained were compared with the results of two classic segmentation algorithms: the optimized Otsu thresholding algorithm, and the Seeded Region Growing growth algorithm.

In this article we want to present parts of the theory of joint-T and how it is applied in higher education to develop the competence of mathematical modeling subjects. We explain how the theory can develop the skills of students. This theory is a response to the problems of learning of mathematics that originate in the curriculum designed to acquire information and not only to develop the math skills of students.

We consider discourse as practice in an attempt to understand/explain some characteristics of R. Palma's Tradiciones peruanas (Peruvian Traditions) from a perspective that brings the social agent back by constructing the place in which it originates and pointing out the active role it fulfills by means of what we call "the agent's competence and trajectory management". Emerging from an adverse and marginalizing background, Palma administers his resources, fundamentally his education and his convenient relationships with those who hold power. He inscribes his production where history and literature intersect; however, he defends the historical validity of his Traditions at the same time his prestige growths; while as criticism worsens, he highlights his popular origin and his links with fiction. As he lacks specific qualities that add to his reputation in the presence of specialist peers, he attempts resources which could enable him to capture the acceptance of non-specialist readers.

Los ovinos de pelo desempeñan un papel importante en la producción de carne en zonas tropicales, donde los estudios de eficiencia alimenticia han sido poco evaluados. El consumo de alimento representa más del 70 % de los costos; por lo tanto, la selección de animales con alta eficiencia alimenticia puede mejorar la rentabilidad del sistema de producción. Se han desarrollado herramientas que permiten seleccionar individuos con mayor eficiencia alimenticia sin comprometer la calidad del producto. Por lo que esta revisión tiene la finalidad de identificar estas herramientas genético-moleculares y estadísticas, como son, el consumo de alimento residual (CAR) y ganancia e ingesta residual (GIR). En la literatura consultada, se reportan diferencias en el consumo de materia seca (CMS) en un rango del 9 al 30 % entre animales eficientes e ineficientes, manteniendo una ganancia diaria de peso (GDP) similar empleando el índice CAR. Por otro lado, utilizando el índice GIR los CMS son similares, aunque la GDP en animales eficientes es mayor hasta en 50 g día-1, reduciendo la conversión alimenticia en un kilo. Esta diferencia se asume a un conjunto de genes asociados a la eficiencia alimenticia (Adra2a, Gfra1, Gh, Glis1, Il1rapl1, Lep, Lepr, Mc4r, Oxsm, Pde8b, Rarb, Ryr2, Sox5 y Sox6, Trdn), que pudieran ser utilizados para la selección de ovinos de razas de pelo con alta eficiencia alimenticia, teniendo en cuenta los genes relacionados con la calidad de carne (Capns1, Cast, Dgat1, Fabp4, Igf-i, Lep, Mstn y Scd).
