Preliminary Studies to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Infrared Thermography for Determination of Skin Wetness in Pigs
Preliminary investigations were undertaken to evaluate infrared thermography as a potential tool to assess the thermal characteristics of pigs and specifically the effects, duration and extent of skin wetness. In this study, the specific aims were to evaluate the impact of (1) timing, (2) camera angle and (3) impact of diameter curve on the resulting IT images of pigs. Based on the preliminary results, a number of recommendations were made to maximise the success of taking thermal images of live pigs.
Production planning is one of the important activities in the company, each of its activities involve decision making. To be able to meet the ::: demand of its customers continuously, companies must have good planning. Therefore, this paper discusses the application of Fuzzy ::: inference system Tsukamoto for decision making in production planning at the company's crude palm oil [CPO). The purpose of this ::: research is to assist the production manager to determine the optimal number of CPO production, so that it can more effectively and ::: efficiently. Data on production, inventory and demand in 2014 as inputs. There are three steps to solve the problem using FIS Tsukamoto ::: i.e. Fuzzification, Inference and Defuzzification. The result obtained is the number of optimal inventory and production as well as higher ::: profit
