Ter-Sarkisov, A., Kelleher, J. D., Earley, B. , Keane, M. & Ross, R. J. (2018). Beef Cattle Instance Segmentation Using Fully Convolutional Neural Network. Paper presented at the 29th British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC), 3 - 6 September 2018, Northumbria University, Newcastle.

Abstract

In this paper we present a novel instance segmentation algorithm that extends a fully convolutional network to learn to label objects separately without prediction of regions of interest. We trained the new algorithm on a challenging CCTV recording of beef cattle, as well as benchmark MS COCO and Pascal VOC datasets. Extensive experimentation showed that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art solutions by up to 8% on our data.
