Representation of freshwater aquaculture fish behavior in low dissolved oxygen condition based on 3D computer vision

Abstract

Dissolved oxygen (DO) plays an important role in industrialized freshwater aquaculture. Such deficiencies such as the high cost of water-quality monitoring system and the failure to accurately monitor or describe aquaculture water-quality existed in freshwater aquaculture water-quality monitoring system. Here, a kind of representation method applied to characterize industrialized aquaculture fish behavior in different degrees of DO deficiency is based on three-dimensional (3D) Computer Vision. 3D coordinate values of aquaculture fishes in water acquired from 3D Computer Vision Device by processing aquaculture fish image are applied to represent such parameters as the average activity and height of aquaculture fish in water. This method for representing different behaviors of industrialized freshwater aquaculture fish under the condition of anoxia is realized by using these parameters and combing with the experience of aquaculture. The results show that the representation of industrialized freshwater aquaculture fish based on 3D Computer Vision System can be applied to describe industrialized aquaculture fish behavior and effectively compensate for the shortfall spatial location of aquaculture fish unable to acquire from 2D monitoring system, which is helpful for the accurate and reasonable control of DO in aquaculture.
