Abstract

A system and a method for detecting animals in a region of interest are disclosed. An image that captures a scene in the region of interest is received. The image is fed to an animal detection model to produce a group of probability maps for a group of key points and a group of affinity field maps for a group of key point sets. One or more connection graphs are determined based on the group of probability maps and the group of affinity field maps. Each connection graph outlines a presence of an animal in the image. One or more animals present in the region of interest are detected based on the one or more connection graphs.
