(2022)
The objectives of the study were: (a) to study the effect of Haemonchus spp. on the growth performance characteristics of fattening calves, (b) to assess any potential effects on carcass characteristics and (c) to investigate ...
Biomechanical effects on lower extremities in human-robot collaborative agricultural tasks
(2021)
The present study pertains to a key aspect of human-robot collaborative systems which is usually underestimated, namely occupational health prolepsis. The aim of this investigation was to assess the biomechanical effects ...
Effect of pH on Schizochytrium limacinum Production Grown Using Crude Glycerol and Biogas Digestate Effluent
(2022)
The ability of microalgae, such as the rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) heterotrophic marine microalgae Schizochytrium limacinum SR21, to utilize nutrients in their culture media derived from low-cost nutrient sources ...
Association of melatonin administration in pregnant ewes with growth, redox status and immunity of their offspring
(2021)
In this study, the effects of melatonin treatment on growth, redox status and immunity in prenatally stressed newborn lambs were evaluated. Thirty-seven newborn lambs were allocated into two groups (melatonin-MEL and ...
A Hybrid Model and Data-Driven Vision-Based Framework for the Detection, Tracking and Surveillance of Dynamic Coastlines Using a Multirotor UAV
(2022)
A hybrid model-based and data-driven framework is proposed in this paper for autonomous coastline surveillance using an unmanned aerial vehicle. The proposed approach comprises three individual neural network-assisted ...
Automated Analysis vs. Expert Reading in Nuclear Cardiology: Correlations with the Angiographic Score
(2022)
Background and Objectives: Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) has an important role in the non-invasive investigation of coronary artery disease. The interpretation of MPI studies is mainly based on the visual evaluation ...
The Effect of Physical Exercise on Oxidation Capacity and Utero-Placental Circulation in Pregnancies with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Uncomplicated Pregnancies, a Pilot Study
(2022)
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with aggravated oxidation capacity and utero-placental circulation, while aerobic exercise could improve both. The study aims to assess oxidation capacity and ...
Efficient implementation of Gaussian and laplacian kernels for feature extraction from IP fisheye cameras
(2018)
The Gaussian kernel, its partial derivatives and the Laplacian kernel, applied at different image scales, play a very important role in image processing and in feature extraction from images. Although they have been ...
Anxiety, Stress and the Resilience of University Students during the First Wave of the COVID-19 Pandemic
(2022)
The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on everyone’s daily lives with short-term or long-term consequences. Among the affected population, university students were studied by researchers specifically due to the total change ...
Clustering Informed MLP Models for Fast and Accurate Short-Term Load Forecasting
(2022)
