A machine learning driven computationally efficient horse shoe shaped antenna design for internet of medical things.

PloS one
With bio-medical wearables becoming an essential part of Internet of Medical things (IoMT) for monitoring the health of workers, patients and others in different environments, antenna play a pivotal role in such wearables. In this communication, a no...

Identifying Novel Emotions and Wellbeing of Horses from Videos Through Unsupervised Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This research applies unsupervised learning on a large original dataset of horses in the wild to identify previously unidentified horse emotions. We construct a novel, high-quality, diverse dataset of 3929 images consisting of five wild horse breeds ...

AI-assisted digital video analysis reveals changes in gait among three-day event horses during competition.

Journal of equine veterinary science
The value and welfare of performance horses is closely tied to locomotor behaviors, but we lack objective and quantitative measures for these characteristics, and qualitative approaches for assessing gait do not provide measures suitable for large-sc...

Rapid identification of horse oil adulteration based on deep learning infrared spectroscopy detection method.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
As a natural oil, horse oil has unique biological activity ingredients and therapeutic characteristics, which has important application value and market potential in healthcare, food, skin care and other fields. However, fraud is rampant in the horse...

A machine learning approach to identify stride characteristics predictive of musculoskeletal injury, enforced rest and retirement in Thoroughbred racehorses.

Scientific reports
Decreasing speed and stride length over successive races have been shown to be associated with musculoskeletal injury (MSI) in racehorses, demonstrating the potential for early detection of MSI through longitudinal monitoring of changes in stride cha...

Validation of Vetscan Imagyst, a diagnostic test utilizing an artificial intelligence deep learning algorithm, for detecting strongyles and Parascaris spp. in equine fecal samples.

Parasites & vectors
BACKGROUND: Current methods for obtaining fecal egg counts in horses are often inaccurate and variable depending on the analyst's skill and experience. Automated digital scanning of fecal sample slides integrated with analysis by an artificial intell...

Explainable machine learning for assessing upper respiratory tract of racehorses from endoscopy videos.

Computers in biology and medicine
Laryngeal hemiplegia (LH) is a major upper respiratory tract (URT) complication in racehorses. Endoscopy imaging of horse throat is a gold standard for URT assessment. However, current manual assessment faces several challenges, stemming from the poo...

Modelling bluetongue and African horse sickness vector (Culicoides spp.) distribution in the Western Cape in South Africa using random forest machine learning.

Parasites & vectors
BACKGROUND: Culicoides biting midges exhibit a global spatial distribution and are the main vectors of several viruses of veterinary importance, including bluetongue (BT) and African horse sickness (AHS). Many environmental and anthropological factor...

Characterization and quantification of in-vitro equine bone resorption in 3D using μCT and deep learning-aided feature segmentation.

Bone
High cyclic strains induce formation of microcracks in bone, triggering targeted bone remodeling, which entails osteoclastic resorption. Racehorse bone is an ideal model for studying the effects of high-intensity loading, as it is subject to focal fo...

Comparison of veterinarians and a deep learning tool in the diagnosis of equine ophthalmic diseases.

Equine veterinary journal
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim was to compare ophthalmic diagnoses made by veterinarians to a deep learning (artificial intelligence) software tool which was developed to aid in the diagnosis of equine ophthalmic diseases. As equine ophthalmology is ...
