22. Measurement of Systematic Errors in Crop PredictionPrecision agriculture typically attempts to answer grower questions using an increasingly more fine-grained analysis. However, some entities, such as cooperatives, can have an interest in answers that are spatially course-grained, such as obtaining an estimate of the overall crop production within a season. Errors in factors that most influence fine-grained predictions, such as soil quality, may have a smaller impact on overall yield forecasts since their effect is likely to ... A.M. Denton, E.W.

24. 3D Computer Vision with a Spatial-temporal Neural Network for Lameness Detection of SowsThe lameness of sows is one of the biggest concerns for swine producers, which can lead to considerable economic losses due to reduced productivity and welfare. There is a real need for early detection of lameness in sows to enable timely intervention and minimize loss. Currently, lame detection relies on visual observation and locomotion scoring of sows, which is subjective, labor-intensive, and difficult to conduct for large groups of animals within a short time. This study presents 3D comp... Y. Wang, Y. Lu, D. Morris, M. Benjamin, M. Lavagnino, J. Mcintyre |
25. Lameness Detection in Dairy Cattle Using GPS and Accelerometers Wearable SensorsLameness significantly impacts cow health and welfare on dairy farms, yet identifying lamecows remains challenging.
