ABSTRACT: The increasing consumption of ducks and chickens in China demands characterizing carcasses of domestic birds efficiently. Most existing methods, however, were developed for characterizing carcasses of pigs or cattle. Here, we developed a noncontact and automated weighing method for duck carcasses hanging on a production line. A 2D camera with its facilitating parts recorded the moving duck carcasses on the production line. To estimate the weight of carcasses, the images in the acquired dataset were modeled by a convolution neuron network (CNN). This model was trained and evaluated using 10-fold cross-validation. The model estimated the weight of duck carcasses precisely with a mean abstract deviation (MAD) of 58.8 grams and a mean relative error (MRE) of 2.15% in the testing dataset. Compared with 2 widely used methods, pixel area linear regression and the artificial neural network (ANN) model, our model decreases the estimation error MAD by 64.7 grams (52.4%) and 48.2 grams (45.0%). We release the dataset and code at https://github.com/RuoyuChen10/Image_weighing. |
