When it comes down to research, DNA and genetics are almost always implicated in it. Horse gaits have physical and genetic components to them. In this episode, Dr. Samantha Brooks, and graduate student Maddy Smythe, both in the UF/IFAS Department of Animal Sciences, discuss how artificial intelligence was used in their study of horse gaits. They want to discover which genes are responsible for gait in horses. AI is used to pinpoint certain joints to measure the horse’s stride. Without it, it would take weeks of going through the videos to get these measurements.
