In order to accurately extract the individual images of chickens from the complex background, the experiment took green shell laying hens which scatter-feed as the segmentation target, and proposed a method of individual identification of chickens based on range image, including image background segmentation and chicken overlapping segmentation. First of all, the depth image after background segmentation is obtained by using fixed threshold segmentation method and morphological processing, and then the image with adhesion is separated by using the method of concave point analysis. Through the recognition of 200 depth images, the results showed that the recognition algorithm can effectively separate the adhesive individuals, thereinto, the correct recognition rate for the image without adhesion is 100%, while the recognition accuracy was 93% for images with adhesion. The comprehensive recognition accuracy was 97%.
