Detecting tail biters by monitoring pig screams in weaning pigs

open access: yesScientific Reports
Early identification of tail biting and intervention are necessary to reduce tail lesions and their impact on animal health and welfare. Removal of biters has become an effective intervention strategy, but finding them can be difficult and time-consuming.

Noise‐Limited Bit Precision in Ferroelectric Synaptic Transistors for High‐Resolution Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐frequency noise spectroscopy defines the resolvable conductance states of synaptic FeFETs by coupling read‐current fluctuation with usable dynamic range. The resulting noise‐limited bit precision establishes a universal, device‐agnostic reliability metric beyond the memory window, enabling quantitative benchmarking and rational design of high ...

Memristive‐Gated RC‐Delay Synaptic Transistors for Time‐Encoded Analog in‐Memory Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A Memristive‐Gated Transistor for Time‐Encoded Analog In‐Memory Computing — By exploiting the RC delay of a self‐rectifying interface‐type memristor, nonlinear I–V distortion is structurally bypassed, enabling 3‐bit nonvolatile memory, spike‐timing‐based analog encoding, and hardware‐calibrated reservoir‐computing validation within a unified device ...

Rearing Pigs with Intact Tails—Experiences and Practical Solutions in Sweden

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
Tail biting is a common issue within commercial pig production. It is mainly an indicator of inadequate housing environment and results in reduced health welfare and production.

Provision of straw by a foraging tower -effect on tail biting in weaners and fattening pigs. [PDF]

open access: yesPorcine Health Manag, 2017
Background: Straw is one of the most effective rooting materials to reduce tail biting in pigs. A so-called foragingtower (FT) provides only small quantities of straw compatible with liquid manure systems. The focus of the present study was on the effect

The Influence of Tail Biting on Performance of Fattening Pigs [PDF]

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Scandinavica, 1996
In comparison to 29 non bitten animals, severe tail biting was found to decrease the daily weight gain (DWG) by 25% in 8 fattening pigs during the period of biting. However, when comparing the weight gain of the lifetime between bitten and non bitten pigs, no influence of the tail biting was found.

An Engineered Biomimetic Nanoreactor With Cascade Functions for Targeted and Combinatorial Therapy of Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Preparation of RVG‐modified erythrocyte membrane‐coated HMPB nanocarriers loaded with L‐arginine and NBP (RM@HPAN) and its neuroprotective mechanism. After intravenous injection, RM@HPAN achieves prolonged circulation, RVG‐29‐mediated BBB penetration, and ischemic accumulation.

Exposing tail biters by automatic scream detection

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
Tail biting is a major problem in pig husbandry and early intervention is essential to maintain animal health and welfare. To facilitate early identification of tail biters a detector software was created that can detect scream-linked biting events ...

A link between damaging behaviour in pigs, sanitary conditions, and dietary protein and amino acid supply. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The tendency to reduce crude protein (CP) levels in pig diets to increase protein efficiency may increase the occurrence of damaging behaviours such as ear and tail biting, particularly for pigs kept under suboptimal health conditions. We studied, in a 2×
