Perspectives on Explanation Formats From Two Stakeholder Groups in Germany: Software Providers and Dairy Farmers [PDF]
arXivThis paper examines the views of software providers in the German dairy industry with regard to dairy farmers' needs for explanation of digital decision support systems. The study is based on mastitis detection in dairy cows using a hypothetical herd management system.

Influence of bovines and rodents in the spread of schistosomiasis across the ricefield-lakescape of Lake Mainit, Philippines: An Optimal Control Study [PDF]
arXivSchistosomiasis remains a persistent challenge in tropical freshwater ecosystems, necessitating the development of refined control strategies. Bovines, especially water buffaloes, are commonly used in traditional farming practices across rural areas of the Philippines.

Meat adulteration detection through digital image analysis of histological cuts using LBP [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Food fraud has been an area of great concern due to its risk to public health, reduction of food quality or nutritional value and for its economic consequences. For this reason, it's been object of regulation in many countries (e.g. [1], [2]). One type of food that has been frequently object of fraud through the addition of water or an aqueous solution

, 2021 Bovine mastitis is one of the most important bacterial diseases of dairy cattle throughout the world. Mastitis is responsible for great economic losses to the dairy producer and to the milk processing industry resulting from reduced milk production, alterations in milk composition, discarded milk, increased replacement costs, extra labor, treatment ...

An Agent-Based Model for Bovine Viral Diarrhea [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 We present an exhaustive description of a stochastic, event-driven, hierarchical agent-based model designed to reproduce the infectious state of the cattle disease called Bovine Viral Diarrhea, for which the livestock-trade network is the main route of spreading.

Supervised contrastive learning for cell stage classification of animal embryos [PDF]
arXivVideo microscopy, when combined with machine learning, offers a promising approach for studying the early development of in vitro produced (IVP) embryos. However, manually annotating developmental events, and more specifically cell divisions, is time-consuming for a biologist and cannot scale up for practical applications.
