Practices and Applications of Convolutional Neural Network-Based Computer Vision Systems in Animal Farming: A Review.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Convolutional neural network (CNN)-based computer vision systems have been increasingly applied in animal farming to improve animal management, but current knowledge, practices, limitations, and solutions of the applications remain to be expanded and...

Visual Guidance and Egg Collection Scheme for a Smart Poultry Robot for Free-Range Farms.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Free-range chicken farming allows egg-laying hens to move freely through their environment and perform their natural behavior, including laying her eggs. However, it takes time to gather these eggs manually, giving rise to high labor costs. This stud...

Meat quality evaluation based on computer vision technique: A review.

Meat science
Nowadays people tend to include more meat in their diet thanks to the improvement in standards of living as well as an increase in awareness of meat nutritive values. To ensure public health, therefore, there is a need for a rise in worldwide meat pr...

Development of a sandwich ELISA for determining plasma prolactin concentration in domestic birds.

Domestic animal endocrinology
The present study was conducted to establish a sandwich ELISA for the determination of prolactin (PRL) concentrations in the plasma of domestic fowls. The assay uses a recombinant goose PRL as the reference standard, expressed in a eukaryotic system,...

Effluent composition prediction of a two-stage anaerobic digestion process: machine learning and stoichiometry techniques.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Computational self-adapting methods (Support Vector Machines, SVM) are compared with an analytical method in effluent composition prediction of a two-stage anaerobic digestion (AD) process. Experimental data for the AD of poultry manure were used. Th...

Use of artificial neuronal networks for prediction of the control parameters in the process of anaerobic digestion with thermal pretreatment.

Journal of environmental science and health. Part A, Toxic/hazardous substances & environmental engineering
This article focuses on the analysis of the behavior patterns of the variables involved in the anaerobic digestion process. The objective is to predict the impact factor and the behavior pattern of the variables, i.e., temperature, pH, volatile solid...

Building a livestock genetic and genomic information knowledgebase through integrative developments of Animal QTLdb and CorrDB.

Nucleic acids research
Successful development of biological databases requires accommodation of the burgeoning amounts of data from high-throughput genomics pipelines. As the volume of curated data in Animal QTLdb (https://www.animalgenome.org/QTLdb) increases exponentiall...

Moisture content prediction in poultry litter using artificial intelligence techniques and Monte Carlo simulation to determine the economic yield from energy use.

Journal of environmental management
The objective of this study is to determine the economic return of poultry litter combustion in boilers to produce bioenergy (thermal and electrical), as this biomass has a high-energy potential due to its component elements, using fuzzy logic to pre...

Neural Network Model for Survival and Growth of Salmonella enterica Serotype 8,20:-:z6 in Ground Chicken Thigh Meat during Cold Storage: Extrapolation to Other Serotypes.

Journal of food protection
Mathematical models that predict the behavior of human bacterial pathogens in food are valuable tools for assessing and managing this risk to public health. A study was undertaken to develop a model for predicting the behavior of Salmonella enterica ...
