Animal social network structure collection and analysis system and method based on image processing

Abstract

The invention discloses an animal social network structure collection and analysis system and method based on image processing. The system comprises a life scene module, an illumination device, an image acquisition device and a data analysis module, wherein the life scene module is used for a site where animals carry out communication activities; the illumination device is used for carrying out annular irradiation on the inner side of the life scene module; the image acquisition device is used for carrying out image acquisition on animal activities in the life scene module; the difference value absolute value of an image gray scale, the gray scale and a matrix are taken as basic data, and a reference matrix set of all actions of each animal is established; an animal pixel set is extracted in the life scene module to establish a target matrix; each target matrix is compared with a reference matrix set one by one to obtain the movement track of each animal in the life scene module, and finally, a dynamic social communication group network is formed. Through the system, social network description and data for describing the generation and developing evolution process of the whole social network can be formed, and the method is suitable for observing and recording animal social behaviors and networks.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of traditional animal life and social research, and specifically relates to a system and method for collecting and analyzing animal social network structures based on image processing, which is suitable for observing and recording animal social behaviors and networks, and forming social network descriptions and descriptions The entire social network generates, develops and evolves process data. Background technique [0002] The social network of animals has always been a research issue concerned by various sciences such as ecology, zoology, and psychology. In order to study the large-scale collective life and social interaction of animals in their natural state, an effective technology is needed to collect their life and social data with minimal disturbance to the animal's own state. [0003] In traditional animal life and social research techniques, two methods are often used to track animal activity areas...
