Equine radiograph classification using deep convolutional neural networks
Purpose: To assess the capability of deep convolutional neural networks to classify anatomical location and projection from a series of 48 standard views of racehorse limbs. Materials and Methods: 9504 equine pre-import radiographs were used to train, validate, and test six deep learning architectures available as part of the open source machine learning framework PyTorch. Results: ResNet-34 achieved a top-1 accuracy of 0.8408 and the majority (88%) of misclassification was because of wrong laterality. Class activation maps indicated that joint morphology drove the model decision. Conclusion: Deep convolutional neural networks are capable of classifying equine pre-import radiographs into the 48 standard views including moderate discrimination of laterality independent of side marker presence.

Equine Pain Behavior Classification via Self-Supervised Disentangled Pose Representation
Timely detection of horse pain is important for equine welfare. Horses express pain through their facial and body behavior, but may hide signs of pain from unfamiliar human observers. In addition, collecting visual data …
ClassificationHorse Eye Blink Detection and Classification for Equine Affective State Assessment
Automated detection of equine facial action units (AUs) is a promising yet under-explored avenue for pain and affective state assessment in horses. Half and full-blink movements are recognised indicators of pain and stre…
Convolutional neural network for early detection of lameness and irregularity in horses using an IMU sensor
Lameness and gait irregularities are significant concerns in equine health management, affecting performance, welfare, and economic value. Traditional observational methods rely on subjective expert assessments, which ca…
4DEquine: Disentangling Motion and Appearance for 4D Equine Reconstruction from Monocular Video
4D reconstruction of equine family (e.g. horses) from monocular video is important for animal welfare. Previous mainstream 4D animal reconstruction methods require joint optimization of motion and appearance over a whole…
