description | In order to improve a livestock breeding environment that considers securing safe cattle resources and improving productivity for the intelligent farm, we propose an animal-friendly and worker-friendly intellectual monitoring system with Artificial Intelligent (AI) technology. In order to secure safe cattle resources and increase productivity for the livestock industry, it is necessary to secure the self-activities of the cattle and predict the estrous state of target cattle as quickly as possible. For the prediction of the estrous state, it is necessary to continuously observe the cattle behavior by workers and quantify the behavior of the target cattle, but that is not easy for workers and needs a long period of continuous observation. We developed the intelligent monitoring system (IMS) with the ARM (Augmented Recognition Model) for the intelligent farm that can predict the estrus of target cattle and get activity data for individual cattle, and then the system was applied to a typical cattle farm for activity monitoring of the Korean cattle (Hanwoo). Therefore, we confirmed the target Hanwoo group with more than 400 activities among the Hanwoo groups using the ARM threshold. Thus, we verified the potential of the proposed system for tracking multiple similar objects. |
