This data was gathered with a 16bit +/- 2g Kionix KX122-1037 accelerometer attached to the neck of six different Japanese Black Beef Cows (`cow1.csv`-`cow6.csv`) at a cow farm of Shinshu University in Nagano, Japan on the 12th of June, 2020.</p> <p>The data gathering took place over the course of one day in which the cows were allowed to roam freely in two different areas, namely, a grass field and farm pens, while being filmed with Sony FDR-X3000 4K video cameras.</p> <p>The timestamps of the video and accelerometer data were matched while human observers which included behavior experts and non-experts labeled the data from the video footage. The labeling and data gathering took a total of 69 person-hours.</p> <p>567 minutes of unlabeled data were parsed into 197 minutes of high-quality labeled data comprising thirteen behaviors by means of majority voting with three annotators. The time per behavior in number of samples (@25Hz) and their respective descriptions are shown in the following table:</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">&nbsp;</th> <th scope="col">Cow 1</th> <th scope="col">Cow 2</th> <th scope="col">Cow 3</th> <th scope="col">Cow 4</th> <th scope="col">Cow 5</th> <th scope="col">Cow 6</th> <th scope="col">Description</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>RES</td> <td>35814</td> <td>47059</td> <td>20501</td> <td>15735</td> <td>11025</td> <td>19996</td> <td>Resting in standing position</td> </tr> <tr> <td>RUS</td> <td>1620</td> <td>25930</td> <td>11156</td> <td>14523</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Ruminating in standing position</td> </tr> <tr> <td>MOV</td> <td>6376</td> <td>8437</td> <td>7532</td> <td>17248</td> <td>4846</td> <td>5760</td> <td>Moving</td> </tr> <tr> <td>GRZ</td> <td>2416</td> <td>2199</td> <td>0</td> <td>2707</td> <td>2442</td> <td>7849</td> <td>Grazing</td> </tr> <tr> <td>SLT</td> <td>204</td> <td>0</td> <td>10654</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Salt licking</td> </tr> <tr> <td>FES</td> <td>6809</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>1125</td> <td>0</td> <td>Feeding in stanchion</td> </tr> <tr> <td>DRN</td> <td>1176</td> <td>0</td> <td>1300</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Drinking</td> </tr> <tr> <td>LCK</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>649</td> <td>297</td> <td>0</td> <td>356</td> <td>Licking</td> </tr> <tr> <td>REL</td> <td>0&nbsp;</td> <td>360</td> <td>0</td> <td>404</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Resting in lying position</td> </tr> <tr> <td>URI</td> <td>239</td> <td>0</td> <td>383</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Urinating</td> </tr> <tr> <td>ATT</td> <td>57</td> <td>50</td> <td>0</td> <td>62</td> <td>0</td> <td>197</td> <td>Attacking</td> </tr> <tr> <td>ESC</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>128</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Escaping</td> </tr> <tr> <td>BMN</td> <td>0</td> <td>54</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>0</td> <td>Being mounted</td> </tr> <tr> <td>ETC</td> <td>105917</td> <td>103084</td> <td>129297</td> <td>62064</td> <td>53922</td> <td>100571</td> <td>Other behaviors</td> </tr> <tr> <td>BLN</td> <td>151249</td> <td>82599</td> <td>88431</td> <td>111744</td> <td>61544</td> <td>45128</td> <td>Data without video, no label</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Sum</td> <td>311876</td> <td>269772</td> <td>269903</td> <td>224912</td> <td>134904</td> <td>179857</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>Accelerometer sampling rate was set to 25Hz.</p> <p>The data is split into six .csv files which represents each of the 6 cows above.

Environmental and behavioral sensor data to identify heat stress in dairy cows

Heat stress impairs the health and performance of dairy cows, yet only a few studies have investigated the diversity of cattle behavioral responses to heat waves. This research was conducted on an Italian Holstein dairy farm equipped with precision livestock farming sensors to assess potential different behavioral patterns of the animals. Three heat waves, defined as at least five consecutive days with mean daily temperature-humidity index higher than 72, were recorded in the farm area during the summer of 2021. Individual daily milk yield data of 102 cows were used to identify ‘heat-sensitive’ animals, meaning the cows that, under a given heat wave, experienced a milk yield drop that was not linked with other health events (e.g., mastitis). Milk yield drops were detected as perturbations of the lactation curve estimated by iteratively using Wood’s equation. Individual daily minutes of lying, chewing, and activity were retrieved from ear-tag-based accelerometer sensors. Semi-parametric generalized estimating equations models were used to assess behavioral deviations of heat-sensitive cows from the herd means under heat stress conditions. Heat waves were associated with an overall increase in the herd’s chewing and activity times, along with an overall decrease of lying time. Heat-sensitive cows spent approximately 15 min/d more chewing and performing activities (p < 0.05). The findings of this research suggest that the information provided by high-frequency sensor data could assist farmers in identifying cows for which personalized interventions to alleviate heat stress are needed.
