Ruminal pH and N-NH3 behavior: a Bayesian approach

Ruminal Acidosis – Much More Than pH

Studies show that acidosis is a very significant disorder of cattle. Studies in Wisconsin found that 20.1 and 23% of cows had subacute acidosis as defined by rumen pH < 5.5 (Oetzel et al., 1999, Oetzel, 2004) and others in Ireland had 11% (O'Grady et al., 2008). A large Australian study found that 10% of dairy cows less than 100 days in milk had acidosis, as defined by assessment of ruminal VFA...

Leveraging Domain Knowledge to Learn Normative Behavior: A Bayesian Approach

This paper addresses the problem of norm adaptation using Bayesian reinforcement learning. We are concerned with the effectiveness of adding prior domain knowledge when facing environments with different settings as well as with the speed of adapting to a new environment. Individuals develop their normative framework via interaction with their surrounding environment (including other individual...

A Bayesian Approach for the Recognition of Control Chart Patterns

In this research, an iterative approach is employed to recognize and classify control chart patterns. To do this, by taking new observations on the quality characteristic under consideration, the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of pattern parameters is first obtained and then the probability of each pattern is determined. Then using Bayes’ rule, probabilities are updated recursively. Finally, when...
