家禽产业以肉鸡生产为主,已成为全球最大的动物蛋白来源。屠宰场和加工厂中对鸡胴体的自动化检测对质量控制、食品安全和运营效率至关重要。然而,在高速工业环境下开发鲁棒的深度学习模型常受限于大规模真实图像数据集的获取与标注成本。本文提出首个生成多种姿态下逼真鸡胴体图像的合成数据流水线,并构建了一个包含300张标注真实图像的新基准数据集,专为家禽分割研究设计。通过该数据集,研究评估了合成数据与自动标注在鸡胴体实例分割中的有效性,尤其当真实标注数据稀缺时。在多个主流实例分割模型上测试了含不同比例合成数据的小型真实数据集。结果表明,合成数据显著提升了所有模型的分割性能。本研究证明,合成数据增强是缓解数据稀缺、降低人工标注成本、推动鸡胴体智能检测系统发展的有效策略。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The poultry industry has been driven by broiler chicken production and has grown into the world's largest animal protein sector. Automated detection of chicken carcasses on processing lines is vital for quality control, food safety, and operational efficiency in slaughterhouses and poultry processing plants. However, developing robust deep learning models for tasks like instance segmentation in these fast-paced industrial environments is often hampered by the need for laborious acquisition and annotation of large-scale real-world image datasets. We present the first pipeline generating photo-realistic, automatically labeled synthetic images of chicken carcasses. We also introduce a new benchmark dataset containing 300 annotated real-world images, curated specifically for poultry segmentation research. Using these datasets, this study investigates the efficacy of synthetic data and automatic data annotation to enhance the instance segmentation of chicken carcasses, particularly when real annotated data from the processing line is scarce. A small real dataset with varying proportions of synthetic images was evaluated in prominent instance segmentation models. Results show that synthetic data significantly boosts segmentation performance for chicken carcasses across all models. This research underscores the value of synthetic data augmentation as a viable and effective strategy to mitigate data scarcity, reduce manual annotation efforts, and advance the development of robust AI-driven automated detection systems for chicken carcasses in the poultry processing industry.
