description Failure to quickly and accurately detect abnormal situations, such as the occurrence of infectious diseases, in pig farms can cause significant damage to the pig farms and the pig farming industry of the country. In this study, we propose an economical and lightweight sound-based pig anomaly detection system that can be applicable even in small-scale farms. The system consists of a pipeline structure, starting from sound acquisition to abnormal situation detection, and can be installed and operated in an actual pig farm. It has the following structure that makes it executable on the embedded board TX-2: (1) A module that collects sound signals; (2) A noise-robust preprocessing module that detects sound regions from signals and converts them into spectrograms; and (3) A pig anomaly detection module based on MnasNet, a lightweight deep learning method, to which the 8-bit filter clustering method proposed in this study is applied, reducing its size by 76.3% while maintaining its identification performance. The proposed system recorded an F1-score of 0.947 as a stable pig’s abnormality identification performance, even in various noisy pigpen environments, and the system’s execution time allowed it to perform in real time.
