The invention relates to the technical field of
animal husbandry, and discloses a pig weight measuring and calculating scheme based on
body size fusion depth data, comprising the following steps: step 1, depth
image acquisition: using depth camera equipment to
shoot a pig depth image, overlooking to
shoot the back of the pig, ensuring that the whole pig is in the image, and acquiring a depth image; pictures with complete postures of the pigs are screened out from the videos, and invalid video frames with no pigs appearing or the edges of the pigs and the edges of the images intersected are removed at the same time.
Feature extraction is carried out by fusing the pig
body size and the depth image, the body state of the pig can be captured more accurately, the accuracy of the
weight estimation artificial neural network is improved, compared with a method for manually driving the pig to weigh and weigh, the depth camera equipment and the
computer vision technology are utilized, manual labor is not needed, pig stress response is removed, and the
weight estimation accuracy of the
weight estimation artificial neural network is improved. The cost is reduced, and the weight of the pig can be quickly and accurately obtained through the pre-trained weight
estimation network, so that the weight
estimation of the pig is more convenient and efficient.
