For monitoring Complex Individual Time varying Dynamic System (CITD)
Automatic monitoring and controlling techniques are becoming more and more important to support the farmer in managing the production. Animal production is a biological process involving living organisms which are complex systems by themselves, all differ from each other, change with time both on the short and long run and continuously adapt to a changing environment. Animals are Complex Individual Time varying and Dynamic systems (CITD-systems) that have been traditionally considered as too complex to be monitored and controlled by image, sound and sensors automatically.
The purpose of PLF is to find ways to measure in real time, model and manage them
New emerging technologies allow developing full automatic on-line monitoring and we are able to apply process analysis on images, sounds and other signals coming from the animals, through models based on the understanding of animal physiology, behaviour and responses to the environmental conditions.
