article submitted by ug7344 . can't understand what your dog wants when it barks? a computer may be able to help. scientists at eötvös loránd university in budapest, hungary, recorded more than 6,000 barks uttered by 14 individual mudis, or hungarian sheepdogs, in six different situations — "stranger," "fight," "walk," "alone," "ball' and "play." they then fed the sounds to a computer program, which was able to correctly categorize the barks 43 percent of the time — far from perfect, but much better than the 16.7 percent rate that would have arisen by chance. the computer had the best results with the "fight" and "stranger" contexts, the worst with "play." it was also able to pick out individual dogs just by the sound of their barks slightly more than half the time — again, much better than chance. "since we have no reasons to say that mudis are special among other dog breeds, i am pretty sure that this method for categorizing barks could work in other dog breeds' barks as well," study leader csaba molnár told london's daily telegraph. the study was published in the journal animal cognition. source have any interesting articles you'd like to share? article request thread.
chicago (reuters) - magnolia bark extract -- a traditional chinese medicine -- may be the newest weapon in the war on bad breath. chewing gum maker wm wrigley jr co said on tuesday that it has added a bit of this germ-killing compound to their eclipse gum and mints. the hope is to not simply mask bad breath, as most strongly flavored mints and gums do, but to kill odor-causing bacteria. magnolia bark extract has long been a staple of traditional chinese medicine. it is used to treat fever, headache and stress -- and has proven effective against germs that cause ulcers. recent studies have shown it has low toxicity and few side effects. most bad breath occurs when bacteria in the mouth break down proteins, producing foul-smelling sulfur compounds. but many antimicrobial agents cause nasty side effects like tooth staining, making them impractical for oral care. according to research published last fall by company scientists, researchers in wrigley's lab tested magnolia bark extract on cultures of three types of oral microorganisms. the extract killed 99.9 percent of the microorganisms within five minutes, the researchers said. in a study of nine volunteers who chewed the mints after lunch, they killed off more than 61 percent of the germs that cause bad breath within 30 minutes -- which is comparable to some commercial mouthwashes, the company study found. mints without the extract were only 3.6 percent effective. gum with the extract took a bit longer to kill oral bacteria. the extract also helped kill a group of bacteria that causes tooth decay. wrigley's tree-bark gum will be on u.s. store shelves later this summer. mints with the tree-bark extract will be available this fall. source
this dog seems to be having a bit of a problem trying to get a bark out. or maybe he's just pissed off about being chained up to a pole.
least we forget the man that started it all.
it`s not humane unless a human tests it out right? this is 6 levels of funny.
