Gene ontology defines pre-post- hatch energy dynamics in the complexus muscle of broiler chickens.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Chicken embryos emerge from their shell by the piercing movement of the hatching muscle. Although considered a key player during hatching, with activity that imposes a substantial metabolic demand, data are still limited. The study provid...

Parallel development of object recognition in newborn chicks and deep neural networks.

PLoS computational biology
How do newborns learn to see? We propose that visual systems are space-time fitters, meaning visual development can be understood as a blind fitting process (akin to evolution) in which visual systems gradually adapt to the spatiotemporal data distri...

Rapid detection of poultry meat quality using S-band to KU-band radio-frequency waves combined with machine learning-A proof of concept.

Journal of food science
Rapid changes in consumer preferences for high-quality animal-based protein have driven the poultry industry to identify non-invasive, in-line processing technologies for rapid detection of muscle meat quality defects. At production plants, technolog...

Classifying vocal responses of broilers to environmental stressors via artificial neural network.

Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience
Detecting early-stage stress in broiler farms is crucial for optimising growth rates and animal well-being. This study aims to classify various stress calls in broilers exposed to cold, heat, or wind, using acoustic signal processing and a transforme...

Research on machine vision online monitoring system for egg production and quality in cage environment.

Poultry science
In the domain of egg production, the application of automation technologies is essential for boosting productivity and quality. This study introduces an online monitoring system designed for egg quality assessment within caged environments, incorpora...

Identification of Taihang-chicken-specific genetic markers using genome-wide SNPs and machine learning: BREED-SPECIFIC SNPS OF TAIHANG CHICKEN.

Poultry science
Taihang is an indigenous breed in Hebei Province and has a long history of evolution. To uncover the genetic basis and protect the genetic resources, it is important to develop accurate markers to identify Taihang at the molecular level. In this stud...

Predictive method for poultry carcass visceral dimensions using 3D point cloud and Genetic Algorithm-based wavelet neural network.

Poultry science
In order to avoid damaging viscera during poultry evisceration and enhance the economic value of poultry products, this paper proposes a predictive method for poultry carcass visceral dimensions based on 3D point cloud and a Genetic Algorithm-based W...

An investigation of machine learning methods applied to genomic prediction in yellow-feathered broilers.

Poultry science
Machine learning (ML) methods have rapidly developed in various theoretical and practical research areas, including predicting genomic breeding values for large livestock animals. However, few studies have investigated the application of ML in broile...

Predicting egg production rate and egg weight of broiler breeders based on machine learning and Shapley additive explanations.

Poultry science
Egg production rate and egg weight are core indicators for evaluating the production performance of broiler breeders. The accurate prediction of these indicators can significantly enhance farm economic efficiency and can provide a basis for future pr...

Development and validation of machine-learning models for monitoring individual behaviors in group-housed broiler chickens.

Poultry science
Animals' individual behavior is commonly monitored by live or video observation by a person. This can be labor intensive and inconsistent. An alternative is the use of machine learning-based computer vision systems. The objectives of this study were ...
