A soft robotic total artificial hybrid heart.

Nature communications
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...

Explainable classification of goat vocalizations using convolutional neural networks.

PloS one
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 ...

Prediction of dry matter intake in growing Black Bengal goats using artificial neural networks.

Tropical animal health and production
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...

Deep denoising approach to improve shear wave phase velocity map reconstruction in ultrasound elastography.

Medical physics
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...

Automated acute pain prediction in domestic goats using deep learning-based models on video-recordings.

Scientific reports
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...

Machine learning-based early prediction of growth and morphological traits at yearling age in pure and hybrid goat offspring.

Tropical animal health and production
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...

Puzzle: taking livestock tracking to the next level.

Scientific reports
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...

Machine learning methods for unveiling the potential of antioxidant short peptides in goat milk-derived proteins during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion.

Journal of dairy science
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...

Robot-patient registration for optical tracker-free robotic fracture reduction surgery.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Image-guided robotic surgery for fracture reduction is a medical procedure in which surgeons control a surgical robot to align the fractured bones by using a navigation system that shows the rotation and distance of bone mov...

Neural network and Bayesian-based prediction of breeding values in Beetal goat.

Tropical animal health and production
The estimation of breeding values is prime concern for animal breeders in order to achieve desired genetic progress of farm animals. However, current methods for estimating BV involve simultaneous selection of animal model which are computationally i...
