Area of Science:

  • Agricultural Science
  • Computer Vision
  • Animal Science

Background:

  • Daily behavioral analysis of group-housed pigs is crucial for early detection of health problems and welfare concerns in smart pig farming.
  • Automated monitoring systems are needed to efficiently analyze pig behavior and provide timely insights.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an automated method, Pig-ByteTrack, for monitoring and analyzing group-housed pig behavior.
  • To detect health problems and improve animal welfare promptly using advanced computer vision techniques.

Main Methods:

  • The Pig-ByteTrack method incorporates target detection, Multi-Object Tracking (MOT), and behavioral time computation.
  • The YOLOX-X detection model was used for pig detection and behavior recognition, followed by Pig-ByteTrack for tracking.
  • Performance was evaluated using 1-minute and 10-minute video datasets, measuring metrics like Higher Order Tracking Accuracy (HOTA) and Multi-Object Tracking Accuracy (MOTA).

Main Results:

  • Pig-ByteTrack achieved high accuracy in 1-minute videos: 72.9% HOTA, 91.7% MOTA, 89.0% IDF1, and 41 ID switches.
  • Significant improvements were observed compared to existing methods like ByteTrack and TransTrack.
  • In 10-minute videos, Pig-ByteTrack achieved 59.3% HOTA, 89.6% MOTA, 53.0% IDF1, and 198 ID switches.

Conclusions:

  • The Pig-ByteTrack method demonstrates efficacy in pig behavior recognition and tracking.
  • This technology offers valuable technical support for the health and welfare monitoring of pig herds in smart farming environments.
  • Automated behavioral analysis is key to enhancing animal welfare and farm management.
