Visual place recognition (VPR) is the problem of recognising a previously visited location using visual information. Many attempts to improve performance VPR methods have been made in literature. One approach that has received attention recently multi-process fusion where different run parallel and their outputs are combined an effort achieve better performance. The fusion, however, does not we...

The reproductive performance of a dairy herd has a significant effect on the profitability of that herd. Common measures of reproductive performance are days to first service, days to conception, calving interval, services per conception, conception rate, estrus detection rate, and pregnancy rate. Most cow operations would benefit economically by reducing the number of operational days, decreas...

Previous evidence has shown that the number of L and M cones in retina varies significantly between subjects. However, it is not clear how the variation of L/M ratio changes the behavioral performance of the subject. A model of transformation of data from retina to visual cortex for evaluation of various L/M cones ratios is presented. While L/M cone ratios close to 1 brings the best performance...
