Daily feeding frequency impacts muscle characteristics and fat deposition in finishing pigs associated with alterations in microbiota composition and bile acid profile by Luga Hu, Huayu Tang, Zhaoxi Xie, Hongyu Yi, Lunjie Feng, Pan Zhou, Yong Zhang, Jingbo Liu, Xiang Ao, Jianchuan Zhou, Honglin Yan

“…A higher feeding frequency increased the levels of primary bile acids and decreased the concentrations of taurine-conjugated bile acids in the cecal content of pigs (p < 0.05).ConclusionOur research suggested that the M4 feeding pattern, compared to the M2 pattern, promoted muscle growth and reduced fat deposition by enhancing fast- to slow-twitch fiber conversion and myogenesis in the muscle and repressing lipid metabolism in adipose tissue, associated with altered microbiota composition and bile acid profiles.…”

A Hybrid Dynamic Principal Component Analysis Feature Extraction Method to Identify Piston Pin Wear for Binary Classifier Modeling by Hao Yang, Yubin Zhai, Mengkun Zheng, Tan Wang, Dongliang Guo, Jianhui Liang, Xincheng Li, Xianliang Liu, Mingtao Jia, Rui Zhang

“…For each round, two binary classifier models are trained by features extracted by the proposed method and the empirical mode decomposition (EMD)–auto regressive (AR) spectrum method, fast Fourier transform (FFT) and continuous wavelet transform (CWT), respectively; the classification precision, recall ratio, accuracy and F1 ratio are obtained on the testing set by contrasting the overall performances of the five-round cross-validation, and the proposed method is proved to be more effective in noise reduction and significant feature extraction, which is able to improve the accuracy and efficiency of binary classification for piston pin wear identification.…”
