Estimation and modeling of pig body weight using linear body measurements

Ghanaian Journal of Animal Science, 2023
Body weight is an essential index used by producers to determine market-ready pigs, and its accu-rate estimation before the finishing stage helps reduce losses in pig production. However, since most pig farms have limited or no access to weighing scales, this study aimed at modeling linear body measurements to estimate pig body weight.

Body image and obesity: effects of gender and weight on perceptual measures of body image

Addictive Behaviors, 1998
The purpose of this study was to assess effects of gender and measures of Body Mass Index on estimates of normal body size (NBS), current body size (CBS), and discrepancies between attainable (ABS) and desirable (LTB) sizes. A total of 98 women and 74 men, shown 9 male and 9 female thin-to-heavy figure silhouette drawings, chose one drawing (or between

Soft biometrics—combining body weight and fat measurements with fingerprint biometrics

Pattern Recognition Letters, 2006
The aim of this study was to examine whether using soft biometrics, i.e. easily measurable personal characteristics, such as weight and fat percentage, can improve the performance of biometrics in verification type applications. Fusing fingerprint biometrics with soft biometrics, in this case body weight measurements, decreased the total error rate ...

Body Weight and Linear Body Measurements of Three Nigerian Local Chicken Strains

The body weight and linear body measurements of the Nigerian local chicken strains were studied with a view to assess their relationship and contribution to the growth of the birds. A total of three hundred (300) local chicken strains comprising one hundred (100) frizzle feathered (FF), one hundred (100) naked neck (NN) and one hundred (100) normal ...
