Activity and synchrony patterns obtained by a tracking-by-detection algorithm as potential predictors of tail biting at pen and individual level in pigs

Animal
Tail biting is a major welfare concern in pigs. Timely interventions may help to reduce its spread in an outbreak. However, tail biting is usually detected only at an injury stage. Therefore, early indicators are needed to predict outbreaks.
