Objective estimation of body condition score by modeling cow body shape from digital images

The aim of the present study was to develop a technique to model the body shape of a cow from which learned parameters could be used in BCS estimation. A further objective was to build a benchmark data set useful for dairy cattle research purposes, available.
through the Internet.

Modeling BCS (Body Condition Score). The aim of the present study was to develop a technique to model the body shape of a cow from which learned parameters could be used in BCS estimation.
A further objective was to build a benchmark data set useful for dairy cattle research purposes, available through the Internet.
Body Condition Assessment Using Digital Images

The purpose of this project was to assess the utility of using digital or video images to evaluate the BCS of a group of cows. Our second aim was to construct a model to determine the sample size needed to estimate the mean BCS of
a group of dairy cows.
