Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animal re-identification (re-ID) is fundamental to our understanding of community ecology, population dynamics and ethological analyses. Recent advances in the area of deep learning for computer vision offer a promising solution to improve upon the current methodologies for animal re-ID. The success of deep learning methods for human re-ID is well documented when ample training images are available for each individual. Despite this success, little has been done utilizing their capabilities for animal re-ID. In order to implement animal re-ID systems in practice, deep learning systems must be able to accomplish a variety of computer vision objectives. These include: quantifying the number of animals in an image, classifying the animal species within an image, localizing and extracting animal individuals within an image, and lastly re-identifying animal individuals. This work begins with a review of computer vision methods for animal re-ID (Chapter 2). I explore the quantification of animal individuals from images considering fish and dolphin counts in the Amazon River (Chapter 3). I then demonstrate the success of deep learning methods considering species identification, strategies for handling class imbalance, and quantifying performance when testing on background locations that are included/excluded from training (Chapter 4). I demonstrate the ability of deep learning systems to classify and localize animal species from camera trap images considering three global environments (Chapter 5). I then utilize five animal individual data sets to compare the success and generality of similarity comparison deep learning methods for animal re-ID (Chapter 6). Finally, I demonstrate these techniques in combination to successfully implement animal re-ID for an entirely novel study of Octopus tetricus social behaviour (Chapter 7). This work describes the complete animal re-ID pipeline for ecologists to follow in practice, outlining expected accuracies and guidelines for best practices. It imprints results to the machine learning research community considering tasks relative to the under represented task of animal re-ID. This work provides details on the necessary components required to achieve real-time camera trap survey systems. Lastly, this work encourages the progress of interdisciplinary areas of science.

Download or read book Computer Vision and Machine Learning Applications for Dairy Farming written by Rafael Ehrich Pontes Ferreira and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With recent advancements in precision livestock farming (PLF) and machine learning (ML) techniques, computer vision systems (CVS) have gained popularity as powerful tools for individual animal monitoring. These systems can capture phenotypes from multiple animals simultaneously in an automated and non-intrusive manner. Individual animal identification is crucial for matching animals with their predicted phenotypes, which can be achieved through external identification systems or computer vision-based animal identification algorithms. While previous studies have focused on using computer vision techniques for identifying dairy cows based on unique coat color patterns, these methods are limited to specific breeds that present such patterns. Furthermore, there is a lack of research on the long-term applicability of these methods, considering visual changes due to growth or physiological states. Chapter 1 discusses current applications of computer vision for animal identification, while Chapter 2 explores methods using 3-dimensional representations of the dorsal surface of dairy calves for identification without relying on coat color patterns. These methods are evaluated on calves during their growth stage, accounting for changes in body shape and size. In Chapter 3, the potential of pseudo-labeling is assessed for improving the performance of neural networks for animal identification. The results show promising performance with a fraction of annotated data compared to traditional methods. Chapters 4 and 5 focus on developing machine learning pipelines for phenotype prediction, specifically early detection of postpartum subclinical ketosis (SCK) using prepartum data exclusively. Various techniques are explored for extracting features from image, text, genotype, and cow behavior and historical data. Data fusion techniques are explored to integrate those features into the machine learning pipelines, and a cloud computing-based framework is proposed to automate data processing, feature extraction, and phenotype prediction. Overall, this dissertation highlights the potential of machine learning and computer vision in guiding data-driven management decisions in dairy farming. By automating processes and integrating data from multiple sources and modalities, these techniques offer opportunities for improving farm profitability, productivity, and animal welfare, particularly through individual animal monitoring and early detection of health issues.

Download or read book Deep Feature Learning and Adaptation for Computer Vision written by Abu Md Niamul Taufique and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We are living in times when a revolution of deep learning is taking place. In general, deep learning models have a backbone that extracts features from the input data followed by task-specific layers, e.g. for classification. This dissertation proposes various deep feature extraction and adaptation methods to improve task-specific learning, such as visual re-identification, tracking, and domain adaptation. The vehicle re-identification (VRID) task requires identifying a given vehicle among a set of vehicles under variations in viewpoint, illumination, partial occlusion, and background clutter. We propose a novel local graph aggregation module for feature extraction to improve VRID performance. We also utilize a class-balanced loss to compensate for the unbalanced class distribution in the training dataset. Overall, our framework achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in multiple VRID benchmarks. We further extend our VRID method for visual object tracking under occlusion conditions. We motivate visual object tracking from aerial platforms by conducting a benchmarking of tracking methods on aerial datasets. Our study reveals that the current techniques have limited capabilities to re-identify objects when fully occluded or out of view. The Siamese network based trackers perform well compared to others in overall tracking performance. We utilize our VRID work in visual object tracking and propose Siam-ReID, a novel tracking method using a Siamese network and VRID technique. In another approach, we propose SiamGauss, a novel Siamese network with a Gaussian Head for improved confuser suppression and real time performance. Our approach achieves SOTA performance on aerial visual object tracking datasets. A related area of research is developing deep learning based domain adaptation techniques. We propose continual unsupervised domain adaptation, a novel paradigm for domain adaptation in data constrained environments. We show that existing works fail to generalize when the target domain data are acquired in small batches. We propose to use a buffer to store samples that are previously seen by the network and a novel loss function to improve the performance of continual domain adaptation. We further extend our continual unsupervised domain adaptation research for gradually varying domains. Our method outperforms several SOTA methods even though they have the entire domain data available during adaptation."--Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep learning (DL), mainly composed of deep and complex neural networks such as recurrent network and convolutional network, is an emerging research branch in the field of artificial intelligence and machine learning. DL revolution has a far-reaching impact on all scientific disciplines and every corner of our lives. With continuing technological advances, marine science is entering into the big data era with the exponential growth of information. DL is an effective means of harnessing the power of big data. Combined with unprecedented data from cameras, acoustic recorders, satellite remote sensing, and large model outputs, DL enables scientists to solve complex problems in biology, ecosystems, climate, energy, as well as physical and chemical interactions. Although DL has made great strides, it is still only beginning to emerge in many fields of marine science, especially towards representative applications and best practices for the automatic analysis of marine organisms and marine environments. DL in nowadays' marine science mainly leverages cutting-edge techniques of deep neural networks and massive data which collected by in-situ optical or acoustic imaging sensors for underwater applications, such as plankton classification and coral reef detection. This research topic aims to expand the applications of marine science to cover all aspects of detection, classification, segmentation, localization, and density estimation of marine objects, organisms, and phenomena.
