Image recognition of deer in fields

[Nicolas Houde]

Hi I am working in animal ecology,

I would like to do some image recognition of deer from pictures taken in fields.

I have not found the way to do it yet.

The difficulty is that the deer are pretty well concealed in the picture  as you can  see on the picture attached to this mail.

 

The light conditions are also pretty variable from one picture to the other.

If someone has a idea on how to resolve my problem, please let me know.

Thank you very much.

Hi Nicolas, I made an attempt with Advanced Weka Segmentation plugin:
-find attached the segmentation after manual classification of the animal "Probability_maps-1";
-the second picture is an attempt of simulating different animals "PICT0746-mod";
-the third picture shows the application of the same classifier to the modified picture, as you can see, the identical copies of animal are found, but if brightness changes (like I guess for other photos under different illumination conditions), things become difficult...
You should try to segment several pictures, let me know if it works.
Best regards,
Rocco
