Automatic Cattle Identification using YOLOv5 and Mosaic Augmentation: A Comparative Analysis [PDF]
You Only Look Once (YOLO) is a single-stage object detection model popular for real-time object detection, accuracy, and speed. This paper investigates the YOLOv5 model to identify cattle in the yards. The current solution to cattle identification includes radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags.

Viruses in sanctuary chimpanzees across Africa
Abstract Infectious disease is a major concern for both wild and captive primate populations. Primate sanctuaries in Africa provide critical protection to thousands of wild‐born, orphan primates confiscated from the bushmeat and pet trades. However, uncertainty about the infectious agents these individuals potentially harbor has important implications ...

CVB: A Video Dataset of Cattle Visual Behaviors [PDF]
Existing image/video datasets for cattle behavior recognition are mostly small, lack well-defined labels, or are collected in unrealistic controlled environments. This limits the utility of machine learning (ML) models learned from them. Therefore, we introduce a new dataset, called Cattle Visual Behaviors (CVB), that consists of 502 video clips, each ...

High-Throughput and Accurate 3D Scanning of Cattle Using Time-of-Flight Sensors and Deep Learning [PDF]
We introduce a high throughput 3D scanning solution specifically designed to precisely measure cattle phenotypes. This scanner leverages an array of depth sensors, i.e. time-of-flight (Tof) sensors, each governed by dedicated embedded devices. The system excels at generating high-fidelity 3D point clouds, thus facilitating an accurate mesh that ...

A big-data spatial, temporal and network analysis of bovine tuberculosis between wildlife (badgers) and cattle [PDF]
Bovine tuberculosis (TB) poses a serious threat for agricultural industry in several countries, it involves potential interactions between wildlife and cattle and creates societal problems in terms of human-wildlife conflict. This study addresses connectedness network analysis, the spatial, and temporal dynamics of TB between cattle in farms and the ...
