Method, information processing apparatus and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium
A method performed by a computer, the method includes obtaining a plurality of images each of which includes a plurality of animals, the plurality of animals being attached with a plurality of attachment objects respectively, the attachment objects having respective different colors, using at least one image among the plurality of images, detecting the colors of the plurality of attachment objects respectively, using the plurality of images, detecting movements of the plurality of respective attachment objects, based on the colors of the plurality of attachment objects, and in accordance with the respective movements of the plurality of attachment objects, determining respective activity quantities of the plurality of animals.
1. A method performed by a computer, the method comprising:
executing a first process when a plurality of animals are not attached with a plurality of attachment objects respectively, the first process being configured to
obtain first images captured by a camera, each of the first images including the plurality of animals in a first condition, the first condition being a condition that each of the plurality of animals are not attached with any of the plurality of attachment objects,
identify one or more of first colors different from any of colors included in the first images,
output the one or more of first colors as candidate colors attached to the plurality of attachment objects; and
executing a second process when the plurality of animals are attached with the plurality of attachment objects respectively, the second process being configured to
obtain second images captured by the camera, each of the second images including the plurality of animals in a second condition, the second condition being a condition that each of the plurality of animals are attached with any of the plurality of attachment objects, the attachment objects having respective different colors and having any of the one or more of the first colors,
by using at least one image among the second images and the one or more of first colors, detect locations of the plurality of attachment objects respectively,
by using the second images, detect movements of the plurality of respective attachment objects, based on the detected locations of the plurality of attachment objects, and
in accordance with the respective movements of the plurality of attachment objects, determining respective activity quantities of the plurality of animals.
2. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a memory; and
a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
execute a first process when a plurality of animals are not attached with a plurality of attachment objects respectively, the first process being configured to
obtain first images captured by a camera, each of the first images including the plurality of animals in a first condition, the first condition being a condition that each of the plurality of animals are not attached with any of the plurality of attachment objects,
identify one or more of first colors different from any of colors included in the first images,
output the one or more of first colors as candidate colors attached to the plurality of attachment objects; and
execute a second process when the plurality of animals are attached with the plurality of attachment objects respectively, the second process being configured to
obtain second images captured by the camera, each of the second images including the plurality of animals in a second condition, the second condition being a condition that each of the plurality of animals are attached with any of the plurality of attachment objects, the attachment objects having respective different colors and having any of the one or more of the first colors,
by using at least one image among the second images and the one or more of first colors, detect locations of the plurality of attachment objects respectively,
by using the second images, detect movements of the plurality of respective attachment objects, based on the detected locations of the plurality of attachment objects, and
in accordance with the respective movements of the plurality of attachment objects, determine respective activity quantities of the plurality of animals.
3. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes an information processing apparatus to execute a process, the process comprising:
executing a first process when a plurality of animals are not attached with a plurality of attachment objects respectively, the first process being configured to
obtain first images captured by a camera, each of the first images including the plurality of animals in a first condition, the first condition being a condition that each of the plurality of animals are not attached with any of the plurality of attachment objects,
identify one or more of first colors different from any of colors included in the first images,
output the one or more of first colors as candidate colors attached to the plurality of attachment objects; and
executing a second process when the plurality of animals are attached with the plurality of attachment objects respectively, the second process being configured to
obtain second images captured by the camera, each of the second images including the plurality of animals in a second condition, the second condition being a condition that each of the plurality of animals are attached with any of the plurality of attachment objects, the attachment objects having respective different colors and having any of the one or more of the first colors,
by using at least one image among the second images and the one or more of first colors, detect locations of the plurality of attachment objects respectively,
by using the second images, detect movements of the plurality of respective attachment objects, based on the detected locations of the plurality of attachment objects, and
in accordance with the respective movements of the plurality of attachment objects, determining respective activity quantities of the plurality of animals.
