類を飼育している。同様に。At water treatment plants, in order to determine whether or not toxins have been mixed into the raw water, a portion of the raw water or purified water is introduced into an aquarium where fish such as crucian carp, carp, dace, tanago, oysterfish, and goldfish are raised. ing. Similarly.

た。Fish are sometimes kept in order to monitor the presence of toxic substances in treated water from sewage treatment plants, discharged water, river water, and lakes. If poisonous substances are mixed into the water, the fish may behave abnormally or die, so this is visually monitored. However, since it relies on visual inspection and cannot be detected unless a person is monitoring it, automatic monitoring has been desired.

れていないので実施困難である。The Mizo Enshu p, 464-466 have been devised. This method uses a camera to capture the phenomenon of fish that have died due to abnormal water quality rising up onto the surface of the water with their bellies facing upwards, detecting them as ``independent bright spots of a certain size or larger'', and detecting them as aK2, which then issues a warning of abnormal water quality. It is. Further, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-46294 discloses a method of monitoring the behavior patterns of a plurality of living things in order to monitor water quality. The disclosed technique describes that a water quality sensor measures temperature and water quality, and the measured values are used as a reference to determine whether a behavioral pattern is normal or abnormal. It is stated that the behavior pattern includes speed and position. However, even if we simply analyze behavioral patterns using image technology, is this idea already known? j [It is difficult to implement because it does not disclose how to specifically detect or evaluate the speed and position of a few objects.

供試魚が1尾では、その挙動状態から、病気・水質異常
の区別が困難である。Among the above conventional techniques, the first method is to detect dead fish.
Second, there was a problem in that water quality abnormalities could not be detected until the fish died and floated to the surface.Secondly, there was a problem in that no measures were taken when the fish died at the bottom of the tank and did not float to the surface. Moreover, since JP-A No. 61-46294 does not disclose a specific method for detecting abnormal water quality, it is difficult to implement. moreover,
If only one fish is tested, it is difficult to distinguish between disease and water quality abnormalities based on its behavior.
本発明の目的は、複数の生物の行動状態を的確に検出で
きる手法を提供することにある。An object of the present invention is to provide a method that can accurately detect the behavioral states of multiple living things.
上記目的は、複数の生物を画像処理手法の1つである、
ラベリングを行って、生物個体毎の画像を抽出し、生物
個体の水槽中の位置算出によって、達成される。The above purpose is one of the image processing methods for multiple living things.
This is achieved by performing labeling, extracting images for each individual creature, and calculating the position of the individual creature in the aquarium.
魚は、異常水質時、鼻上げと呼ばれる、水面に口を出す
行動をする。魚の水槽中における位置を個体別に逐次検
出することによって、この異常行動を的確に把握でき、
魚の行動状況を効果的に評価できる。When fish have abnormal water quality, they exhibit a behavior called nose raising, in which they stick their mouths out to the surface of the water. By sequentially detecting the position of each individual fish in the aquarium, we can accurately understand this abnormal behavior.
The behavioral status of fish can be evaluated effectively.

明する。The digital multi-value image signal is stored in the multi-value image memory 32M. The multivalued image memory 32M has 256 images in the vertical direction and 2 images in the horizontal direction.
There are 56 memory locations, and the luminance signal of the pixel corresponding to each memory location is stored as a digital value. The signal (luminance) at the i-th row and j-th column (i=1 to 256, j=1 to 256) of this storage location is expressed as G(i, j). If the A/D converter 32 converts analog values into 7-bit digital values, a (1t j) has 128 levels of digital values. FIG. 3 shows an example of a multivalued image stored in the multivalued image memory 32M. FIG. 3 represents an image with multilevel luminance. The brightness frequency distribution calculation circuit 33 calculates the brightness frequency distribution of the multivalued image. The brightness frequency distribution of FIG. 3 is shown in FIG. The threshold value determination circuit 34 determines the threshold value ■ upon receiving the calculation result of the brightness frequency distribution. Next, a method for setting the threshold value will be explained.

With the illumination method of the present invention, the fish school 14 can always be imaged as a dark object, so as shown in FIG. A first threshold value Il is set. Since the area f varies depending on the state, the minimum area is set. This threshold value determination method is particularly effective when the water is cloudy. However, if the water is not cloudy, it is better to use the second threshold 2.

In order to extract only the fish body, a second threshold value 2 is set at the boundary between Pf and Pe. As shown in Fig. 4, the threshold value is set to at least luminance ■1 in advance, and while searching each frequency in the direction of increasing luminance, the boundary (minimum value) between Pf and Pe is set.

重心を示す物体は、2つと認識される。The image numbering circuit 36 receives the signal from the binarization memory 35M and numbers the images in descending order of area. The images in FIG. 5 are recognized by being numbered in descending order of area as shown in FIG. 6. In addition, the image numbering material circuit 36 is 1 to 256 for a maximum of 256 independent objects in one screen.
can be numbered. Subsequently, the center of gravity calculation circuit 37 calculates the center of gravity of the binarized images in the order of numbering to obtain 1gL*.
Find the center of gravity of g2. The overlap number calculation circuit 38 calculates the number P of overlaps in the image by subtracting the total number m of numbered fish from the number N of reared fish set by the negative number setting circuit 38S. The overlap number distribution circuit 39 distributes the overlap number P in descending order of area based on the weight of the area number. In Figure 6, there is one object each with barycentric coordinates of -gt * gz, but the number of overlapping objects P is
From the area (Sz>St), it is recognized that there are two objects assigned to gl and indicating the center of gravity of gl.

号を出力する。The abnormal position judgment circuit 40 receives the vertical coordinates where fish are expected to be located and the number of fish at that position from the abnormality setting circuit 408 when the water quality is abnormal, and compares them with the calculated center of gravity and the number of fish. If there are more fish than the set number of fish near the coordinates, it is determined that there is an abnormality and a signal is output to the alarm device 70.

、水面付近の値を異常水質時・の魚の位置とする。The position where fish exist when the water quality is abnormal, which is set by the abnormality setting circuit 408, is determined by the nose-up behavior caused by the fish due to the abnormal water quality. Since the nose-raising behavior occurs near the water surface of the aquarium, the value near the water surface is taken as the position of the fish when the water quality is abnormal.

6According to the present invention, the positions of multiple groups of organisms in the aquarium can be calculated, and the number of individuals within a set range can be ascertained. It is effective to conduct more advanced and accurate water quality monitoring based on the proportion of fish representing the total number of fish kept6.
