Longitudinal analysis of bovine mammary gland development

Journal of Mammary Gland Biology and Neoplasia · 2023-05-30 · 6 citations

Many studies on bovine mammary glands focus on one stage of development. Often missing in those studies are repeated measures of development from the same animals. As milk production is directly affected by amount of parenchymal tissue within the udder, understanding mammary gland growth along with visualization of its structures during development is essential. Therefore, analysis of ultrasound and histology data from the same animals would result in better understanding of mammary development…

Computer vision systems for monitoring hutch-housed dairy calves

Journal of Dairy Science · 2025-05-28 · 3 citations

Computer vision systems (CVS) have emerged as a powerful technology for animal monitoring. However, there is limited research on CVS for behavior monitoring of hutch-housed dairy calves, which account for >50% of all calf housing in the United States. The objectives of this study were to (1) develop a CVS to monitor animal location and posture of hutch-housed dairy calves; (2) compare the predictive performance of 2 deep learning algorithms (large vs. small model) for object detection that can p…

Exploring associations among morphometric measurements, genetic group of sire, and performance of beef on dairy calves

Translational Animal Science · 2023-01-01 · 3 citations

Abstract Sire selection for beef on dairy crosses plays an important role in livestock systems as it may affect future performance and carcass traits of growing and finishing crossbred cattle. The phenotypic variation found in beef on dairy crosses has raised concerns from meat packers due to animals with dairy-type carcass characteristics. The use of morphometric measurements may help to understand the phenotypic structures of sire progeny for selecting animals with greater performance. In addi…
