Special Issue: Computer Vision for Animal Biometrics
The development of computer vision approaches that detect and describe
animal life in image or video data is an
emerging subject in machine vision. First real-world applications are now
becoming available to assist work in a variety
of areas; including ecology, agriculture, conservation, and the
behavioral sciences.
This special issue seeks to bring together and organize a collection of
recently developed approaches in this domain.
It is intended to provide an international forum for researchers to report
recent developments in the field in an original research paper style.
The topics include, but are not limited to:
* detection and recognition of animals
* automated visual species classification
* visual population count and census applications
* individual animal identification
* animal tracking and movement analysis
* monitoring animal traits, behaviour and health
* real-world animal biometrics systems
