  1. Chick culling

    Chick culling is the culling of newly hatched male chickens for which breeders have no use. In an industrial egg producing facility, about half of the newly hatched chicks will be male and would grow up to be rooster s, which do not lay eggs and therefore provide no incentive for the breeder to preserve. Most of the male chicks are usually killed shortly after hatching. History Prior to the development of modern meat breeds, most male chickens cockerels would usually be slaughtered for meat, while females pullets would be kept for egg production. However, once farmers bred separate meat and egg breeds, it became apparent that there was no reason to keep males of the egg breed alive. As a result the males of every batch of egg laying chickens would be killed as soon as possible to reduce losses incurred by the breeder through the feeding and sheltering of them. Chicken sexing Special techniques were developed to accurately determine the sex of chicks at as young an age as possible. The culling of unwanted chicks In industrial factory farms , Chicks that are not intended for rearing are culled shortly after Chicken sexing their sex is determined , usually before they are 72 hours old. Methods Several methods have been used to cull chicks Maceration , using a large high speed grinder into which the chicks are fed. Gases or gas mixtures, often carbon dioxide is used to induce unconsciousness and then death. Cervical dislocation , manually induced dislocation of the spinal column from the skull.

  1. Back-face culling

    In computer graphics , back face culling determines whether a polygon of a graphical object is visible. It is a step in the graphical pipeline that tests whether the points in the polygon appear in clockwise or counter clockwise order when projected onto the screen. If the user has specified that front facing polygons have a clockwise winding, if the polygon projected on the screen has a counter clockwise winding it has been rotated to face away from the camera and will not be drawn. The process makes Rendering computer graphics rendering objects quicker and more efficient by reducing the number of polygons for the program to draw. For example, in a city street scene, there is generally no need to draw the polygons on the sides of the buildings facing away from the camera they are completely occluded by the sides facing the camera. A related technique is clipping computer graphics clipping , which determines whether polygons are within the camera s field of view at all. Another similar technique is Z culling, also known as Hidden surface determination Occlusion culling occlusion culling , which attempts to skip the drawing of polygons which are covered from the viewpoint by other visible polygons. This technique only works with single sided polygons, which are only visible from one side. Double sided polygons are rendered from both sides, and thus have no back face to cull. One method of implementing back face culling is by discarding all polygons where the dot product of their surface normals surface normal and the camera to polygon vector is greater than or equal to zero.

  1. Mesh subdivision

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date November 2006 Mesh Subdivision is a technique used to add detail to a polygon mesh by breaking into smaller pieces the polygons in the mesh. Mesh subdivision techniques are often used in 3D computer games, and in other programs such as Google Earth tm . Because computers are limited in the number of polygons they can render per second, different techniques are often used to reduce the number of polygons visible at any given time, while still keeping the image as detailed looking as possible. The polygons usually triangles in the mesh are divided in a way that the ones closest to the viewpoint are much smaller, and the size of the polygons grows the farther they are from the viewpoint. This is a Level Of Detail LOD technique. The mesh starts with a few very large polygons which are divided into smaller and smaller ones as the viewpoint gets closer to them. Polygons will also be recombined when the viewpoint gets farther away, or the polygons are no longer visible see for example View frustum culling . When a polygon is divided altitude and other attributes will be loaded and assigned to the new vertices.

    Unreferenced date March 2009 In computing, retained mode rendering is a style for application programming interface s of graphics libraries, in which the libraries retain a complete model of the objects to be rendered. Citation needed date June 2009 Overview By using a retained mode approach, client calls do not directly cause actual rendering, but instead update an internal model typically a list of objects which is maintained within the library s data space. This allows the library to optimize when actual rendering takes place along with the processing of related objects. Citation needed date June 2009 Some techniques to optimize rendering include Citation needed date June 2009 managing double buffering performing occlusion culling only transferring data that has changed from one frame to the next from the application to the library Immediate mode is the opposite approach, but the two styles can coexist in the same library and are not necessarily exclusionary in practice.

  1. Vertex pipeline

    The function of the vertex pipeline in any Graphics processing unit GPU is to take geometry data usually supplied as vector points , work with it if needed with either fixed function processes earlier DirectX , or a vertex shader program later DirectX , and create all of the 3D data points in a scene to a 2D plane for display on a computer Computer display monitor . It is possible to eliminate unneeded data from going through the rendering pipeline to cut out extraneous work called view volume clipping and backface culling . After the vertex engine is done working with the geometry, all the 2D calculated data is sent to the pixel engine for further processing such as texturing and fragment shading. As of DirectX 9c, the vertex processor is able to do the following by programming the vertex processing under the Direct X API Tessellation Displacement mapping Geometry blending Higher order primitives Point sprites Matrix stacks External links http www.anandtech.com video showdoc.aspx?i 2044&p 3 Anandtech Article http msdn.microsoft.com library default.asp?url library en us directx9 c Vertex Pipeline.asp MSDN Programming Guide for Vertex Processing Category Image processing Category Graphics standards ...   more details

  1. Tandem selection

    Tandem selection is a method of artificial selection in which useful traits are selected for sequentially. For instance, one could select for both increased milk Crop yield yield and increased milk fat content in cow s via tandem selection by first selecting those with the best of one trait, say those that produce highest milk yield, and then when that trait is at a satisfactory level, by starting to select for those cows that produce milk with the greatest milk fat content instead. However, for cows to produce milk with greater fat content, yield may have to go down due to, perhaps, limits of the cows metabolism . So, while you are selecting for cows which have increased milk fat content, the yield of milk they are producing may also go down, thus reversing the selection process previously performed to increase it. Therefore, tandem selection has a major disadvantage to other major types of artificial selection for multiple traits, such as culling and index selection , as there is a tendency for the last trait to be lost as the next is being selected.
