End-stage heart failure is a deadly disease. Current total artificial hearts (TAHs) carry high mortality and morbidity and offer low quality of life. To overcome current biocompatibility issues, we propose the concept of a soft robotic, hybrid (pumpi...
Efficient precision livestock farming relies on having timely access to data and information that accurately describes both the animals and their surrounding environment. This paper advances classification of goat vocalizations leveraging a publicly ...

Dry matter intake (DMI) determination is essential for effective management of meat goats, especially in optimizing feed utilization and production efficiency. Unfortunately, farmers often face challenges in accurately predicting DMI which leads to w...
BACKGROUND: Measurement noise often leads to inaccurate shear wave phase velocity estimation in ultrasound shear wave elastography. Filtering techniques are commonly used for denoising the shear wavefields. However, these filters are often not suffic...
Facial expressions are essential in animal communication, and facial expression-based pain scales have been developed for different species. Automated pain recognition offers a valid alternative to manual annotation with growing evidence across speci...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of various prediction models in estimating the growth and morphological traits of pure Hair, Alpine × Hair F (AHF), and Saanen × Hair F (SHF) hybrid offspring at yearling age by employing earl...
Animal behavior is a critical aspect for a better understanding and management of animal health and welfare. The combination of cameras with artificial intelligence holds significant potential, particularly as it eliminates the need to handle animals...
Milk serves as an important dietary source of bioactive peptides, offering notable benefits to individuals. Among the antioxidant short peptides (di- and tripeptides) generated from gastrointestinal digestion are characterized by enhanced bioavailabi...
