Harvesting may be a potent driver of demographic change and contemporary evolution, which both may have great impacts on animal populations. Research has focused on changes in phenotypic traits that are easily quantifiable and for which time series exist, such as size, age, sex, or gonad size, whereas potential changes in behavioural traits have been under-studied. Here, we analyse potential dr...

Modelling case occurrence and risk factors for clinical mastitis, as a key multifactorial disease in the dairy cow, requires statistical models. The type of model used depends on the choice of perception or the study level: herd, lactation, animal, udder and quarter. The validity of the tests that are performed through these models is especially ensured when hypotheses of independence between s...

As data analytics becomes mainstream, and the complexity of the underlying data and computation grows, end-users will increasingly rely on visualizations to present simplified statistics that summarizes interesting properties in the data. It is even more important to provide tools that help analysts understand the underlying reasons when they see anomalous results. We envision adding a new expl...

Prompted by rising income inequality (in short, inequality) in advanced economies, a rapidly growing number of studies across various fields and disciplines social science have, since the 1990s, sought to find out how innovation (as main engine economic progress) affects distribution modern-day capitalist societies. Using systematic literature review method, this paper provides first critical 1...
