1. Dynamic Feeding Intake Monitoring in Growing-Finishing Pigs Reared Under Precision Feeding StrategiesPigs exposed to challenges with no prior experience change their daily feeding intake pattern. A method identifying deviations from normal feeding patterns could be used to develop a model framework to estimate individual nutrient requirements of challenged pigs fed with precision feeding systems. The objective of this study was to develop a tool for early identification of feed intake deviations in precision fed growing-finishing pigs. Feed intake measurements collected during 84 d in 126 growing–finishing... L. Hauschild, A.R. Kristensen, I. Andretta, C. Pomar, A. Remus |
2. Study of Non-contact Respiration and Temperature-humidity Index for Dairy Cow Heat Stress MonitoringThis thesis develops a non-contact system to automatically monitor the respiratory rate of dairy cows, aiming to improve real-time health assessment and management in livestock farming. Respiratory rate is a key indicator of cow health, helping detect heat stress, respiratory illness, and other conditions early. The system uses visible light and thermal cameras to capture synchronized videos, while image recognition algorithms detect and track the nasal region to perform respiratory measurements... W. Chu |
3. Visual Attention and Clinical Scales in Patients with DementiaAttention is a critical indicator in dementia assessment, and its cognitive fluctuation serves as a key metric for evaluating treatment effectiveness. With technological advancements, eye-tracking has emerged as a reliable and non-invasive tool for measuring attentional performance. This study employed the Gazepoint eye-tracker to assess visual attention in 16 patients diagnosed with mild dementia (Clinical Dementia Rating, CDR = 0.5). Two visual response tasks, digit discrimination, and letter... W. Chu |
