Pig Facial Recognition

CounterpointResearch: Chinese Alibaba, JD.com, and Tencent are developing AI-based Smart Agriculture platforms which they believe will lead to improved agricultural efficiency, particularly with respect to pig rearing. Pig facial recognition works in a similar way to human facial recognition, recording details of the pig’s eyes, ears, snout and bristles.

Start-up Yingzi Technology, one of the first Chinese companies to come up with a pig facial recognition system, is trialing its system on a farm with 3,000 pigs. Yingzi claims that identification accuracy is more than 98% and that a pig can be identified even if it is moving in a herd.
