Using Emotions to Tag Media
Multimedia information indexing and retrieval is about developing techniques which allow people to effectively find the media they are looking for. Content-based methods become necessary when dealing with big databases due to the limitations inherent in metadata-based systems. Current technology allows researchers to explore the emotional space which is known to carry very interesting semantic ...
متن کاملSupplementary Feeding of Dairy Cows to Increase Milk Production
Milk production systems in Eastern Australia vary from grazing improved pastures and fodder crops with strategic use of high energy supplements, to feeding complete diets under feedlot conditions. The nature of the production system within any area is dictated by climatic and economic factors. Economic return from milk production within a given area is a function of the genetic capacity of the ...
متن کاملSupplementary feeding restructures urban bird communities.
Food availability is a primary driver of avian population regulation. However, few studies have considered the effects of what is essentially a massive supplementary feeding experiment: the practice of wild bird feeding. Bird feeding has been posited as an important factor influencing the structure of bird communities, especially in urban areas, although experimental evidence to support this is...
متن کاملSupplementary Feeding of Grazing Beef Cattle
Some 60% of Australia% beef cattle are located in the tropics and subtropics, grazing, in general native pastures of low digestibility and N content. Production per head is low, as also are reproductive rates. The nutritional problem centres around the low contents of phosphorus, sulphur and nitrogen in pastures from June to December. This paper discusses responses in breeding cattle to supplem...
متن کاملImproving supplementary feeding in species conservation
Supplementary feeding is often a knee-jerk reaction to population declines, and its application is not critically evaluated, leading to polarized views among managers on its usefulness. Here, we advocate a more strategic approach to supplementary feeding so that the choice to use it is clearly justified over, or in combination with, other management actions and the predicted consequences are th...
