用关键点轨迹区分奶牛亲和与攻击行为,提升智能养殖社交网络分析精度。

Beyond Proximity: A Keypoint-Trajectory Framework for Classifying Affiliative and Agonistic Social Networks in Dairy Cattle

  • 基于关键点轨迹建模运动特征,超越传统距离阈值判断
  • 在真实牧场数据上实现77.51%的交互类型分类准确率
  • 适合畜牧智能监控、动物行为分析研究者使用

精准畜牧养殖需要客观评估社会行为以支持群体福利监测,但现有方法多依赖静态邻近阈值推断互动,在复杂牛舍环境中无法区分亲和与攻击行为,限制了自动化社交网络分析的可解释性。本文提出一种基于姿态的计算框架,通过建模解剖关键点的时空几何关系,摆脱对像素级外观或简单距离的依赖,从关键点轨迹中提取具有交互特异性的运动签名,从而区分社会互动的正负价值。该框架为端到端计算机视觉流程,集成YOLOv11目标检测([email protected]: 96.24%)、监督个体识别(98.24%准确率)、ByteTrack多目标跟踪(81.96%准确率)、ZebraPose 27点关键点估计及基于姿态距离动态的SVM分类器。在商用牧场采集的标注互动片段上,仅使用姿态信息即实现77.51%的亲和/攻击行为分类准确率。相比仅依赖距离的基线模型,本方法在亲和互动判别上表现显著提升。结果验证了该方法在商品化硬件上实现近实时运行,适用于构建感知互动的社交网络。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Precision livestock farming requires objective assessment of social behavior to support herd welfare monitoring, yet most existing approaches infer interactions using static proximity thresholds that cannot distinguish affiliative from agonistic behaviors in complex barn environments. This limitation constrains the interpretability of automated social network analysis in commercial settings. We present a pose-based computational framework for interaction classification that moves beyond proximity heuristics by modeling the spatiotemporal geometry of anatomical keypoints. Rather than relying on pixel-level appearance or simple distance measures, the proposed method encodes interaction-specific motion signatures from keypoint trajectories, enabling differentiation of social interaction valence. The framework is implemented as an end-to-end computer vision pipeline integrating YOLOv11 for object detection ([email protected]: 96.24%), supervised individual identification (98.24% accuracy), ByteTrack for multi-object tracking (81.96% accuracy), ZebraPose for 27-point anatomical keypoint estimation, and a support vector machine classifier trained on pose-derived distance dynamics. On annotated interaction clips collected from a commercial dairy barn, the classifier achieved 77.51% accuracy in distinguishing affiliative and agonistic behaviors using pose information alone. Comparative evaluation against a proximity-only baseline shows substantial gains in behavioral discrimination, particularly for affiliative interactions. The results establish a proof-of-concept for automated, vision-based inference of social interactions suitable for constructing interaction-aware social networks, with near-real-time performance on commodity hardware.
