Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Sleep serves several essential functions in all mammals including dairy cattle. Researchers are beginning to estimate sleep in dairy cattle using a combination of physiological measurements (e.g., polysomnography) as well as changes in behavior (e.g., different resting postures). Sleep may provide unique insight into how cows and calves respond to, and cope with, their environments, as a complement to other common measurements such as lying time. Although each of the methods to assess sleep in cattle has its advantages, there remain several challenges with each approach. The objective of this narrative mini-review is to describe current methods for estimating sleep in dairy cattle, including some of the advantages and limitations with each method. We will start with describing the research to date on adult cows, followed by preweaning dairy calves. We end the review with recommendations for researchers interested in assessing sleep in dairy cattle and ideas for future areas of research.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
