description: The number of documents available into Internet moves each day up. For this reason, processing this amount of information effectively and expressibly becomes a major concern for companies and scientists. Methods that represent a textual document by a topic representation are widely used in Information Retrieval (IR) to process big data such as Wikipedia articles. One of the main difficulty in using topic model on huge data collection is related to the material resources (CPU time and memory) required for model estimate. To deal with this issue, we propose to build topic spaces from summarized documents. In this paper, we present a study of topic space representation in the context of big data. The topic space representation behavior is analyzed on different languages. Experiments show that topic spaces estimated from text summaries are as relevant as those estimated from the complete documents. The real advantage of such an approach is the processing time gain: we showed that the processing time can be drastically reduced using summarized documents (more than 60\% in general). This study finally points out the differences between thematic representations of documents depending on the targeted languages such as English or latin languages.

Year: 2013

description: Postpartum uterine diseases can impair reproductive performance of dairy cows. Diagnostic tools have been developed to identify cows at risk of poor subsequent reproductive performance. Most of these tools focus on identification of inflammation in the reproductive tract during the postpartum period. Endometrial cytology was proposed as a good tool to identify cows with cytological endometritis; however, cytology is not an easy technique to implement for an on-farm uterine health surveillance program in dairy herds because it requires the use of a microscope. Therefore, a more convenient on-farm method needs to be identified for determination of uterine status of dairy cows. Aleucocyte esterase (LE) colorimetric test is commercially available (Multistix®, Bayer Corporation, Elkhart, IN) and could be used to detect endometrial inflammation. The objectives of this study were to determine diagnostic criteria for endometritis in dairy cows by use of endometrial cytology and LE testing, to quantify the agreement between results of these two methods, and to quantify their impact on subsequent reproductive performance.

description: Metritis affects 10%-30% of dairy cows and results in production losses, impaired fertility, and increased risk of culling and death early in lactation. Economic losses of metritis have been estimated at $328/affected cow. Cows that develop metritis are at an increased risk to develop clinical and subclinical endometritis. Escherichia coli expressing fimH early postpartum (1-3 days in milk [DIM]) has been associated with development of metritis, which suggests this bacterium has an important role and is a virulence factor for initial tissue damage and subsequent bacterial infection and development of uterine diseases. It is possible that reduction of the amount of E. coli in the uterus of cows with metritis in early lactation might reduce its detrimental impact. Ampicillin is efficacious against E. coli, but to date, studies to evaluate the efficacy of ampicillin for the treatment ofmetritis in dairy cows are lacking. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of ampicillin trihydrate (AMP) for the treatment of metritis in dairy cows compared with that of ceftiofur hydrochloride (CEFT). Our hypothesis was that AMP would be an effective treatment for metritis in dairy cows.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, were reared in a new type re-circulation system at temperatu-res of around 16 and 23 °C and 16 - 23 salinity. The fish growth was observed from 60 - 280 mm length corresponding to 5 - 280 g average body weight. The growth trials were carried out in order to investigate the performance of an improved recirculating system combined of a two step suspended solid separation, ozone treatment, biological filtration, aeration, and auxiliary components. The results proof that sea bass grew quickly in the system. Growth rates exceeded those reported from other investigations. However, the typical increase of variance at increasing bo-dy weight was also pronounced in this study; the weight range increased from 4 - 7 g at the beginning to 210 - 377 g at the end of the rearing period. Highest stocking density in fish tanks was about 45 kg/m3 at the end of the measuring pe-riod. Water quality was always in safe limits; the water remained remarkably clear throughout the rearing period and no discoloration was observed at make up water rates ≤ 4 %/d. As a result, no mortality was observed during the rearing period. All fish showed a very good state of health, no fin lesions or skin damages were found. This study shows that it is possible to rear juveniles quickly and to improve the quality of the juveniles that may later be transferred into outdoor facilities for fattening. This also may allow to stock juveniles early in the season at a comparably higher weight and to shorten the final growth period.

description: Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We give a birational characterization of ordinary abelian varieties over $k$: a smooth projective variety $X$ is birational to an ordinary abelian variety if and only if $κ_S(X)=0$ and $b_1(X)=2 \dim X$. We also give a similar characterization of abelian varieties as well: a smooth projective variety $X$ is birational to an abelian variety if and only if $κ(X)=0$, and the Albanese morphism $a: X \to A$ is generically finite. Along the way, we also show that if $κ_S (X)=0$ (or if $κ(X)=0$ and $a$ is generically finite) then the Albanese morphism $a:X\to A$ is surjective and in particular $\dim A\leq \dim X$.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The development rate for salmon lice larvae is highly temperature-dependent. Hence, the time from hatching of nauplii to an infectious copepodid will vary with the natural cycles in the sea. The salmon lice life span is prolonged at lower temperatures. This has implications for dispersal of larvae in the environment and the subsequent decision of what is the sensible regional size of salmon farming areas. The dispersion of salmon lice larvae in Norwegian coastal waters are being studied by means of mathemathical hydro dynamic models. To further extend on the model, biological data for the salmon lice are being implemented. The life expectancy for free living larvae at different temperatures will be important to include to model how long the larvae should be considered infective in the water masses.

description: $\mathrm{La_{1.85}Sr_{0.15}CuO_4}$/$\mathrm{La_2CuO_4}$ (LSCO15/LCO) bilayers with a precisely controlled thickness of N unit cells (UCs) of the former and M UCs of the latter ([LSCO15\_N/LCO\_M]) were grown on (001)-oriented {\slao} (SLAO) substrates with pulsed laser deposition (PLD). X-ray diffraction and reciprocal space map (RSM) studies confirmed the epitaxial growth of the bilayers and showed that a [LSCO15\_2/LCO\_2] bilayer is fully strained, whereas a [LSCO15\_2/LCO\_7] bilayer is already partially relaxed. The \textit{in situ} monitoring of the growth with reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) revealed that the gas environment during deposition has a surprisingly strong effect on the growth mode and thus on the amount of disorder in the first UC of LSCO15 (or the first two monolayers of LSCO15 containing one $\mathrm{CuO_2}$ plane each). For samples grown in pure $\mathrm{N_2O}$ gas (growth type-B), the first LSCO15 UC next to the SLAO substrate is strongly disordered. This disorder is strongly reduced if the growth is performed in a mixture of $\mathrm{N_2O}$ and $\mathrm{O_2}$ gas (growth type-A). Electric transport measurements confirmed that the first UC of LSCO15 next to the SLAO substrate is highly resistive and shows no sign of superconductivity for growth type-B, whereas it is superconducting for growth type-A. Furthermore, we found, rather surprisingly, that the conductivity of the LSCO15 UC next to the LCO capping layer strongly depends on the thickness of the latter. A LCO capping layer with 7~UCs leads to a strong localization of the charge carriers in the adjacent LSCO15 UC and suppresses superconductivity. The magneto-transport data suggest a similarity with the case of weakly hole doped LSCO single crystals that are in a so-called {"{cluster-spin-glass state}"}

The flexibility and generality of our approach enables us to go beyond the previous analytical calculations in the low-energy regime. We study the laser and Fermi energy dependence of the $G$ peak intensity and analyze the contributions from resonant and non-resonant electronic transitions. In particular, we explicitly demonstrate the importance of quantum interference and non-resonant states for the $G$ peak process. Our method of analysis and computational concept is completely general and can easily be applied to study other materials as well.

In addition to the traditional challenges of herd health, productivity and profitability, there are growing questions about our production systems and practices. Finding an acceptable location for a livestock facility and generating local support is difficult. Activist groups opposed to contemporary production practices are pursuing litigation, pressuring customers and initiating legislation to change the way we operate. Customers and consumers are asking questions about animal welfare, sustainability, pre-harvest food safety and immigration issues.

The case of one-electron molecular systems is considered. Numerical results of the vacuum polarization contribution at m$α$7 and higher orders for the fundamental transitions (v = 0, L = 0) $\rightarrow$ (v ' = 1, L ' = 0) in the H2+ and HD+ molecular ions are presented and compared with calculations performed in the adiabatic approximation. The residual uncertainty from this contribution on the transition frequencies is shown to be of a few tens of Hz.

description: In this review, we address calf welfare from three perspectives: improving health, reducing pain and distress and facilitating natural behavior. Four major areas of concern are reviewed: 1) calf morbidity and mortality resulting especially from poor colostrum feeding practices; 2) chronic calf hunger resulting from outdated feeding practices; 3) social isolation from other calves that can be avoided by keeping calves in small, well-managed groups; and 4) procedures such as dehorning that cause considerable pain that can be avoided using the right techniques and analgesics, or tail docking that prevents the animal from performing natural fly avoidance behaviors, and fails to provide clear advantages to either the animal or the producer. In each example, we show how research can identify solutions that improve calf welfare while remaining practical for dairy producers.

description: The influence of long-term ageing (about one year) on the Raman scattering (RS) spectra and the temperature dependence of conductivity has been studied in two series of monolayer graphene samples irradiated by different doses of C$^{+}$ and Xe$^{+}$ ions. It is shown that the main result of ageing consists of changes in the intensity and position of D- and G- and 2D-lines in RS spectra and in an increase of the conductivity. The observed effects are explained in terms of an increase of the radius of the \textquotedblleft activated\textquotedblright{} area around structural defects.

description: We investigate the appearance of trapping states in pedestrian flows through bottlenecks as a result of the interplay between the geometry of the system and the microscopic stochastic dynamics. We model the flow trough a bottleneck via a Zero Range Process on a one dimensional periodic lattice. Particle are removed from the lattice sites with rates proportional to the local occupation numbers. The bottleneck is modelled by a particular site of the lattice where the updating rate saturates to a constant value as soon as the local occupation number exceeds a fixed threshold. We show that, for any finite value of such threshold, the stationary particle current saturates to the limiting bottleneck rate when the total particle density in the system exceeds the bottleneck rate itself.

description: Several Canadian producers have implemented an inexpensive free-access feeding system modeled on Finnish guidelines,18 using formic acid as a milk preservative. The system mimics natural suckling and permits group social behavior. It allows for accelerated growth and changes labor requirements for calf rearing. Anecdotally, producers report less clinical cases of diarrhea and use of drugs for rearing milk-fed calves and kids. Free-access feeding provides freedom from hunger - the best medicine for milk-fed calves and kids. This paper answers questions about and describes ways to set up the feeding system.

description: An X1.6 flare occurred in AR 12192 on 2014 October 22 at 14:02 UT and was observed by Hinode, IRIS, SDO, and RHESSI. We analyze a bright kernel which produces a white light (WL) flare with continuum enhancement and a hard X-ray (HXR) peak. Taking advantage of the spectroscopic observations of IRIS and Hinode/EIS, we measure the temporal variation of the plasma properties in the bright kernel in the chromosphere and corona. We found that explosive evaporation was observed when the WL emission occurred, even though the intensity enhancement in hotter lines is quite weak. The temporal correlation of the WL emission, HXR peak, and evaporation flows indicate that the WL emission was produced by accelerated electrons. To understand the white light emission process, we calculated the energy flux deposited by non- thermal electrons (observed by RHESSI) and compared it to the dissipated energy estimated from a chromospheric line (Mg II triplet) observed by IRIS. The deposited energy flux from the non-thermal electrons is about 3 ~ 7.7 X 10^(10) erg cm^(-2) s^(-1) for a given low energy cut-off of 30 ~ 40 keV, assuming the thick target model. The energy flux estimated from the temperature changes in the chromosphere measured using the Mg II subordinate line is about 4.6 - 6.7 X 10(9) erg cm^(-2) s^(-1): ~6-22% of the deposited energy. This comparison of estimated energy fluxes implies that the continuum enhancement was directly produced by the non-thermal electrons.

The cell may take one of the three forms: excitatory, inhibitory, and receptory. The computer simulations showed that, depending on the phase of input signals, the artificial neuron's output frequency may demonstrate various chaotic behaviors.

Current Data on Dehorning Calves
Creators: name: Duffield, Todd
Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2008

description: Dehorning calves is a necessary practice that should be conducted as early as possible and with appropriate anesthetic/analgesia. With the possible exception of caustic paste, calves perceive and react to acute pain during dehorning, regardless of method, when no local anesthetic is used. Extensive research has shown that dehorning stimulates both an acute pain response and a delayed inflammatory reaction. These effects have been measured through physiological, behavioural, and pain sensitivity responses. The best method to fully address pain management for dehorning should include both a local cornual nerve block and systemic analgesia, particularly when calves are dehorned at or beyond four weeks of age. Current adoption rates off arm operator's use of local anesthetics and/or systemic analgesia for dehorning are extremely low. Veterinarians are influential in designing dehorning protocols for on-farm use. A routine dehorning service conducted by trained technicians through a veterinary practice is one means of controlling dehorning protocols on-farm.

description: The Fock-Darwin system is analysed from the point of view of its symmetry properties in the quantum and classical frameworks. The quantum Fock-Darwin system is known to have two sets of ladder operators, a fact which guarantees its solvability. We show that for rational values of the quotient of two relevant frequencies, this system is superintegrable, the quantum symmetries being responsible for the degeneracy of the energy levels. These symmetries are of higher order and close a polynomial algebra. In the classical case, the ladder operators are replaced by ladder functions and the symmetries by constants of motion. We also prove that the rational classical system is superintegrable and its trajectories are closed. The constants of motion are also generators of symmetry transformations in the phase space that have been integrated for some special cases. These transformations connect different trajectories with the same energy. The coherent states of the quantum superintegrable system are found and they reproduce the closed trajectories of the classical one.

Pharmacokinetic - Pharmacodynamic Modeling of Analgesic Drugs in Beef Cattle

Year: 2008

description: Bovine castration is performed on approximately 15 million cattle in the United States annually. Surgical castration with a scalpel followed by testicular removal using manual twisting (cattle< 90 kg) or an emasculator (cattle >90 kg) are the most common methods of castration performed in the USA. A survey of US veterinarians found that one in five practitioners report using analgesics or a local anesthetic at the time of castration. However, these drugs have not been formally approved by the FDA for pain relief. Validated methods of pain assessment are required in order to determine if analgesic drugs are efficacious. Potential pain assessment methods include plasma cortisol determination, plasma Substance P determination, accelerometers, thermography, chute exit speed, heart rate determination and electrodermal activity measurements. Studies have shown that a combination of butorphanol (0.01 - 0.025 mg/kg); xylazine (0.02 - 0.05 mg/kg) and ketamine (0.04 - 0.1 mg/kg) can mitigate these responses. Research is underway to further characterize the activity of analgesic drugs administered prior to castration.

Managing the Cow at Calving Time

Publisher: name: American Association of Bovine Practitioners  Proceedings of the Annual Conference
Year: 2008

description: Despite increased emphasis in recent years on declining dairy cow reproductive performance, there has been very little focus on the management of the periparturient dairy heifer and cow at calving time. Perhaps as a result, US producers are now reporting increasing perinatal calf losses at calving. A critical determinant in reducing periparturient losses is good calving management. The tenets of good calving management are predicting accurately when calving is due, moving heifers and cows to the maternity unit on time, discrete calving supervision, and critically knowing when and how to intervene during calving. This article deals with each of these topics, outlining where veterinarian-led producer implementation of good calving management can improve perinatal survival and welfare. The three rules of spring. If it's in, pull it out, If it's out, push it in, And if it's down, give it calcium. --(Irish veterinary aphorism)

description: We report on the first open-use based Atacama Large Millimeter/submm Array (ALMA) 345-GHz observation for the late afterglow phase of GRB131030A. The ALMA observation constrained a deep limit at 17.1 d for the afterglow and host galaxy. We also identified a faint submillimeter source (ALMAJ2300-0522) near the GRB131030A position. The deep limit at 345 GHz and multifrequency observations obtained using {\it Swift} and RATIR yielded forward shock modeling with a two-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamic jet simulation and described X-ray excess in the afterglow. The excess was inconsistent with the synchrotron self-inverse Compton radiation from the forward shock. The host galaxy of GRB131030A and optical counterpart of ALMAJ2300-0522 were also identified in the SUBARU image. Based on the deep ALMA limit for the host galaxy, the 3-$σ$ upper limits of IR luminosity and the star formation rate (SFR) is estimated as $L_{IR}<1.11\times10^{11} L_{\odot}$ and SFR$<18.7$ ($M_{\odot}$~yr$^{-1}$), respectively. Although the separation angle from the burst location (3.5 arcsec) was rather large, ALMAJ2300-0522 may be one component of the GRB131030A host galaxy, according to previous host galaxy cases.

description: In this paper, the dynamical behavior of the anisotropic universe has been investigated in $f(R,T)$ theory of gravity. The functional $f(R,T)$ has been rescaled in the form $f(R,T)=μR+μT$, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of energy momentum tensor. Three cosmological models are constructed using the power law expansion in Bianchi type $VI_h$ ($BVI_h$) universe for three different values of $h=-1,0,1$, where the matter field is considered to be of bulk viscous fluid. It is found from the model that the anisotropic $BVI_h$ model in the modified theory of gravity is in agreement with a quintessence phase for the value of $h=-1$ and $0$. We could not obtain a viable cosmological model in accordance with the present day observations for $h=1$. The bulk viscous coefficient in both the cases are found to be positive and remain constant at late time. The physical behaviors of the models along with the energy conditions are also studied.

Year: 2008

description: Perinatal mortality rates are increasing internationally, particularly in Holstein-Friesian primiparae. The prevalence of perinatal mortality in US dairy herds is currently 8%. This article outlines our current knowledge of bovine perinatal pathophysiology and presents practical guidelines on management of the calf at calving time. Biophysical profiling of the newborn calf, without sophisticated equipment, is the first step in diagnosing at-risk perinates. Resuscitative techniques adaptable for both the producer and the veterinarian are detailed. In addition, management of prolonged recumbence, hypothermia, failure to suck, umbilical antisepsis and calf movement after calving are discussed. Knowledge gaps constraining future progress towards better newborn calf management are highlighted. Finally, current topics in perinatal mortality are presented.

description: Ketosis, defined as blood beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) concentrations greater than 1,400 umol/1, is an important problem in dairy herds. Ketosis in early lactation has been associated with decreased milk yield, increased risk for displaced abomasum, and impaired reproductive performance. The objective of this study was to investigate relationships between concentrations of blood BHBA, glucose, and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) in transition dairy cows in a commercial dairy herd with a high incidence of ketosis.

description: We report on rubidium vapor-cell Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in a 0.7~T magnetic field where all involved levels are in the hyperfine Paschen-Back regime, and the Rydberg state exhibits a strong diamagnetic interaction with the magnetic field. Signals from both $^{85}\mathrm{Rb}$ and $^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ are present in the EIT spectra. This feature of isotope-mixed Rb cells allows us to measure the field strength to within a $\pm 0.12$\% relative uncertainty. The measured spectra are in excellent agreement with the results of a Monte Carlo calculation and indicate unexpectedly large Rydberg-level dephasing rates. Line shifts and broadenings due to small inhomogeneities of the magnetic field are included in the model.

description: Payment for milk in the United States is primarily controlled by the federal government. Federal Milk Marketing Orders have been in place for a century, and continue to dominate the payment for milk in the United States. The last major revision of the process was implemented in January 2000, and this system still controls payment in 60% of the milk in the United States. Milk is so essential to health that it was controlled to ensure an adequate supply of fresh milk. Essential to ensuring an adequate supply of fresh milk, producer milk pricing processes were developed to help producers survive financially. The paper describes the history and current role of milk marketing orders in the US.

Publisher: name: Statistica
Year: 2024

description: In this article, we unravel an extension of shifted version of Lindley distribution, termed as extended generalized shifted Lindley (EGSL) distribution. Stochastic ordering, moment generating function, reliability characteristics and other relevant properties are studied for this distribution. To estimate the parameters involved, method of maximum likelihood is performed. A detailed simulation study for several choices of parameters is executed as well. Finally, as a comparative exploration, possible fitting of the proposed distribution to a real data along with model fitting by other competent distributions is documented through the aid of a few model checking criteria.

description: The behavior of a new Hysteretic Nonlinear Energy Sink (HNES) coupled to a linear primary oscillator is investigated in shock mitigation. Apart from a small mass and a nonlinear elastic spring of the Duffing oscillator, the HNES is also comprised of a purely hysteretic and a linear elastic spring of potentially negative stiffness, connected in parallel. The Bouc-Wen model is used to describe the force produced by both the purely hysteretic and linear elastic springs. Coupling the primary oscillator with the HNES three nonlinear equations of motion are derived, in terms of the two displacements and the dimensionless hysteretic variable, which are integrated numerically using the analog equation method. The performance of the HNES is examined by quantifying the percentage of the initially induced energy in the primary system that is passively transferred and dissipated by the HNES. Remarkable results are achieved for a wide range of initial input energies. The great performance of the HNES is mostly evidenced when the linear spring stiffness takes on negative values.
Milk quality services for dairy farms

description: A veterinarian and founder in milk quality work, Dr. John Dahl once made the statement, "The halflife of mastitis control is at least 25 years." Unfortunately, this statement is still true today. It seems as though mastitis control still requires the same approach such as the "Mastitis Triangle". As veterinarians, our main goal still is to educate the dairy farmer the important interaction between the Man, the Machine and the Cow. The real problem is after all these years, we just cannot manage to get people to understand the real need for change, and therefore change doesn't happen. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the basic tenants of managing udder health on dairy farms by addressing the Mastitis Triangle.

description: Haemonchus contortus wreaks havoc on small ruminant and camelid farms in many temperate parts of the world. Unlike many other trichostrongyle nematodes that primarily behave as thieves by robbing animals of body condition, Haemonchus contortus has the distinction of being a killer. This trichostrongyle becomes a "prime suspect" whenever complaints of anemia, weight loss, and death losses arise on farms. As a result, veterinarians need to know how to investigate the scene of the crime, and to help producers recognize and stop management factors that enable criminal behavior in the resident worm population. Control measures need to focus on not only sustaining animal viability, but also preserving anthelmintic efficacy.

description: Gastrointestinal parasites are the greatest threat to the health and productivity of small ruminants and camelids in the United States, and in many other parts of the world. The steadily escalating problem of multi-drug resistant parasites has resulted in an increase in treatment failures, often with lethal consequences. Effective control programs for Haemonchus contortus and other important parasites require knowledge of which parasites are present on farms, the magnitude of the infection among animals, and which anthelmintics are still effective. This presentation will focus on fecal analyses used to detect important nematodes that affect goats, sheep, llamas and alpacas, and methods used to determine anthelmintic resistance.

description: This article aims to discuss different estimation methods for the power generalized Weibull distribution. An extensive simulation study is carried out to assess the effectiveness of the estimation of model parameters using numerous well known classical methods of estimation. Furthermore, the Bayes estimators of the unknown parameters are also obtained under different loss functions. Monte Carlo simulations are used to assess the performances of the proposed estimators. Besides, bootstrap/ credible intervals are obtained based on considered methods of estimation. Finally, the potentiality of the distribution is illustrated by means of re-analyzing one real data set.
