Imagine being able to guess a chemical's color just by looking at its structure. That's what scientists did with machine learning! They trained four different models to predict the colors of water-soluble organic compounds. The boosting technique model was particularly useful, helping scientists fig
Machine learning (ML) is quickly becoming a big deal in lots of areas, from research to practical things like predicting how well livestock will breed. But not many people have looked into using ML to improve chicken breeding, especially for yellow-feathered broilers. This study tried out seven diff
Heart failure can make it hard for people to do much physical activity because they get very out of breath and tired. This happens when the tiny blood vessels in the body aren't doing their job right, and the muscles can't get the energy they need. Myofascial release techniques (MRT) are a way to im
