A Novel Computer Vision Approach for Assessing Fish Responses to Intrusive Objects in Aquaculture

arXiv:2605.30399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The aquaculture industry needs to address several challenges to secure sustainable seafood production that can serve an increasing global demand. One major challenge is to ensure good fish health and acceptable welfare during production since the improvement of fish welfare is of vital importance in current and future production systems. In this study, this is addressed by developing and implementing methods to identify fish behaviors in response to intrusive objects both on individual and on a group basis. A novel approach for detecting, track
The increasing global demand for sustainable seafood production and advancements in computer vision technology are converging to address welfare challenges in aquaculture.
Improving fish health and welfare in aquaculture through AI-driven monitoring can lead to more efficient and ethical food production systems, impacting food security and industry practices.
Aquaculture operations can move towards more automated and scientifically informed welfare monitoring, reducing manual oversight and potentially improving yields and sustainability.
