초록

본 논문에서는 양돈의 증체율을 영상 이미지를 이용하여 자동으로 측정하는 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였다. 양돈은 축사에서 사육되면서 육돈으로 출하하기 위해 양돈의 증체율이 목장주의 경제적 이익과 직결하기 때문에 매우 중요한 요소로 작용하고 있다. 따라서 양돈 개체별 증체율을 손쉽게 측정할 수 있는 방법이 요구되고 있어, 이를 위한 방법으로 양돈을 평면적으로 촬영하여 양돈의 증체율을 측정할 수 있는 영상 분석 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 또한 제시된 알고리즘을 구현하여 양돈의 표면적을 측정하여 이를 증체율로 표현할 수 있도록 구현하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 방법을 통하여 손쉽게 양돈의 개체별 증체율을 측정할 수 있게 됨으로써 농장주의 요구에 부응할 수 있게 되었다. 향후에는 표면적 계산하는 알고리즘을 향상시켜 실제 측정치와 동일한 값이 구해질 수 있도록 개선 작업을 진행할 예정이다.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a system for automatically measuring pig growth rate using image. Pig breeding is a very important factor because the breeding rate of pigs is directly linked to the rancher's economic interests in order to raise them in livestock farms. Therefore, there is a demand for a method for easily measuring the growth rate of each pig. As a method for this, an image analysis algorithm for measuring the growth rate of pigs is presented by taking a plan view of the pig. In addition, the proposed algorithm was implemented to measure the surface area of swine and to express it as the rate of gain. The proposed method in this paper makes it possible to easily measure the individual growth rate of pigs to meet the needs of farmers. In the future, we will improve the algorithm to calculate the volume so that the same value as the actual measurement can be obtained.
