연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

Abstract AI-Helper 아이콘AI-Helper

Automatic detection of estrus in cows is important in cattle management. This paper proposes a method of estrus detection by automatically checking cattle mounting. We use a side-view video camera and apply computer vision techniques to detect mounting behavior. In particular, we extract motion info...

제안 방법

  • In [10], we proposed a “non-attached” method to detect estrus with an audio surveillance system. In this paper, we apply computer vision techniques to mounting detection for a large-scale farm to further improve the accuracy of estrus detection. It is difficult to segment the body of a Korean native cow from an input scene captured with a “tilted-down” camera because the color of the cow’s body in the scene is similar to the color of the background (i.
  • The main idea of the proposed system is that we use a side-view camera and check the abrupt change (i.e., move-up by more than 40 cm within 0.5 seconds) of a mounting cow’s height with computer vision techniques. Typically, a mounting activity can be observed at 1.
  • The principal idea (i.e., our main contribution) of the proposed system is that we utilize a side-view camera and check the abrupt change of a mounting cow’s height with computer vision techniques. As depicted in Fig.
  • In this paper, we proposed a mounting detection method for Korean native cattle from video stream data with computer vision techniques and mounting detection rules. This study focused on detecting both spatial and temporal abnormalities of a mounting with a side-view camera. From the experiments, we confirmed that the proposed method could detect a mounting by considering the direction, magnitude, and history of the mounting motion, even in the case of a fence occlusion.

대상 데이터

  • We set the resolution to 640 × 480 pixels and the frame rate to 24 frames/s (fps). The camera was located 2 m from the fence and 1.7 m above the ground, at Milyang and Sacheon farms. The RoI was set as a center area of 640 × 80 pixels from the acquired resolution 640 × 480 pixels (See Fig.
  • With these settings, we acquired 25 mounting datasets from the observed field of size 5 m × 10 m. There were ten (Milyang farm) and five (Sacheon farm) cows in the field. From the experiment with 25 mounting datasets (mounting verification threshold Δ = 4, = 16, = 0.

이론/모형

  • These two techniques can detect moving objects from the difference of each pixel between the previous frame and the current frame. For background subtraction, we use the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) method [15] that uses a parametric probability density function represented as a weighted sum of Gaussian component densities. To extract motion vectors, we select feature points such as the corners from each image frame.
  • In this paper, we use the Motion History Image (MHI) method [13,14], which can provide rich motion information. Although some portion of a mounting behavior may be missed by a partial occlusion, we can utilize the motion history information to resolve the fence-occlusion problem.
