Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems for improved mastitis classification and diagnosis.

Scientific reports
For modeling dairy cattle data, fuzzy logic offers the capability to manage uncertainty, enhance accuracy, facilitate informed decision-making, and optimize resource allocation. A critical aspect of dairy cattle production is the modeling of mastitis...

Comparison of machine learning and validation methods for high-dimensional accelerometer data to detect foot lesions in dairy cattle.

PloS one
Lameness is one of the major production diseases affecting dairy cattle. It is associated with negative welfare in affected cattle, economic losses at the farm level, and adverse effects on sustainability. Prompt identification of lameness is necessa...

Use of a priority lane to increase voluntary visits to a milking robot in dairy cows.

Journal of dairy science
Voluntary visits to the milking robot are the basis of automatic milking system functionality. Therefore, problems arise when cows are undermotivated to visit the robot. Cows with reduced competitive abilities, specifically those that are lame or low...

International Symposium on Ruminant Physiology: Leveraging computer vision, large language models, and multimodal machine learning for optimal decision making in dairy farming.

Journal of dairy science
This article explores various applications of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in dairy farming, including the use of computer vision systems (CVS) for animal identification, BCS and body shape analysis, and potential uses of large language ...

[Validation of a decision tree for selective dry cow therapy of dairy for a digital expert system].

Tierarztliche Praxis. Ausgabe G, Grosstiere/Nutztiere
In this study, a decision tree derived from scientific literature on selective dry cow therapy (ST), which was developed as a knowledge base for a digital expert system, was evaluated. The decision tree merges algorithmic (based on cell count results...

Providing concentrate feed outside of the milking robot increases feed intake in dairy cows without reducing motivation to visit the robot.

Animal : an international journal of animal bioscience
Appropriate and adequate feeding is essential to maintaining good health, productivity and welfare of dairy cows. Within automatic milking systems, concentrate feed is offered inside the milking robot, and is thought to play a key role in motivating ...

Prediction of ketosis using radial basis function neural network in dairy cattle farming.

Preventive veterinary medicine
The purpose of the paper was to apply an Artificial Neural Networks with Radial Basis Function to develop an application model for diagnosing a subclinical ketosis type I and II in dairy cattle. While building the neural network model, applied method...

Using supervised machine learning algorithms to predict bovine leukemia virus seropositivity in dairy cattle in Florida: A 10-year retrospective study.

Preventive veterinary medicine
Supervised machine-learning (SML) algorithms are potentially powerful tools that may be used for screening cows for infectious diseases such as bovine leukemia virus (BLV) infection. Here, we compared six different SML algorithms to identify the most...

Methodology for quality risk prediction for milk powder production plants with domain-knowledge-involved serial neural networks.

Food chemistry
In dairy enterprises, predicting product quality attributes that are influenced by operating parameters is a major task. To reduce quality loss in production, a prediction-based quality control method is proposed in this study. In particular, a seria...

Deep-learning classification of teat-end conditions in Holstein cattle.

Research in veterinary science
As a means of preventing mastitis, deep learning for classifying teat-end conditions in dairy cows has not yet been optimized. By using 1426 digital images of dairy cow udders, the extent of teat-end hyperkeratosis was assessed using a four-point sca...
