The artificial neural networks (ANN) are the learning algorithms and mathematical models, which mimic the information processing ability of human brain and can be used to non linear and complex data. The aim of this study was to compare artificial neural network and regression models for prediction of body weight in Raini Cashmere goat. The data of 1389 goats for body weight, height at withers ...

Motivation: A computer vision system that could visually track the motion of a human body would be a key enabling technology for high-level interpretation of human motion. For example, in order to monitor human activities, an observer may want a symbolic description of the human actions. Similarly, in physical training contexts, a coach may be interested in the position and orientation of parti...

ninety red sokoto bucks were used to assess the relationship between body, testicular and epididymal measurements in three age groups (group 1: 7-12 months; group 2: between 1 and 2 years and group 3: older than 2 years). the effect of age on body and testicular / epididymal measurements was analyzed. a predictive model was developed for each of the testicular / epididymal measurements using li...

today radiology and imaging are the only and main method to generate geometrical data from body. 3d model of the body will give us the best and reliable information for better understanding and diagnostic. on the other hand with development of cad/cam and rapid prototyping, the 3d printers were born to build 3d models without considering the geometry. today the 3d printers are able to makes a 3...

To calculate and evaluate wave scattering and penetration of electromagnetic waves in different biological tissues it is necessary to use a realistic model of the human body, with all tissues resolved and separately assigned with appropriate electric/magnetic properties. We report the development of a realistic 3D whole-body human model that has been adapted for simulation in CST software, cont...
