Abstract :
This paper reports the preliminary experiments on the cow identification via gait recognition of motion images. The eight cows walking under two different situations have been precisely identified by Cubic Higher-order Local Auto-Correlation (CHLAC). The cow gait recognition using CHLAC is expected to be a landmark achievement for realizing cost-effective dairy cattle breeding management systems which do not use any sensors and hormone in order to determine the timing of artificial insemination in dairy cattle.
