Development and validation of a fully automated 2-dimensional imaging system generating body condition scores for dairy cows using machine learning

ABSTRACT: Monitoring body condition score (BCS) is a useful management tool to estimate the energy reserves of an individual cow or a group of cows. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate the performance of a fully automated 2-dimensional imaging system using a machine learning algorithm...
