This method overcomes the defects of traditional methods, which require artificial extraction of features, are often not robust enough, have slow recognition speeds, and require large numbers of parameters in the recognition model. The proposed method works with images with complex backgrounds, making it suitable for actual farming environments.

It also provides a reference for the identification of individual cows in images with complex backgrounds.Ĭitation: Li S, Fu L, Sun Y, Mu Y, Chen L, Li J, et al.
