摘　　要：针对图像或光谱单一信息检测孵化早期胚蛋性别识别率不高的问题,该研究提出一种随机森林(Random Forest,RF)和证据理论(Dempster-Shafer,D-S)的图谱信息融合的无损检测方法。利用机器视觉和光谱仪分别采集孵化期第4天水平横放的胚蛋信息,在对胚蛋图像和光谱预处理的基础上,提取图像纹理特征和光谱特征,再分别以2类单特征的RF分类结果作为独立证据构造基本概率分配函数,运用D-S证据理论进行决策级融合,根据分类判决门限得出最终的识别结果。试验结果表明,图像和光谱单特征RF模型识别准确率最高分别达78.00%和82.67%,多特征决策融合识别法准确率达到88.00%,其中雌雄识别率分别达到90.00%和86.25%,单个鸡蛋的平均判别用时为2.843 s。结果表明,该光谱-图像信息融合方法可以提高孵化早期胚蛋雌雄识别准确率。Layer strains can be a particular preference for female chickens over males with respect to economic value.One-day-old male chicks are normally slaughtered once hatched in the incubation factories,leading to a huge waste of poultry resources,as well as raising serious concerns for animal welfare.It is since day 7 of incubation that the chicken embryo starts to feel pain.Thus,accurate identification can be used for the removal of the male eggs at the early stage of incubation,in order to effectively save cost and conform to the ethics for animal welfare.Generally,incubation is a complicated process concerning the inner biochemical activity and outer morphology evaluation,for example,the shape of the chicken embryo and the vessels.However,only a single information source was used,such as spectra or machine vision images,thus performing weakly in the recognition accuracy.This study aims to more accurately detect the gender of the chicken embryo at the early stage of incubation.A non-destructive decision fusion was proposed using both images and spectra using Random Forests(RF)and Dempster-Shafer(D-S)theory of evidence.A detection system was constructed to sample the transmission spectra and machine vision images of 566 chicken eggs.Day 4 of incubation was selected as the best detection time,while,the laying style of eggs was determined as placed horizontally.Machine vision images of the chicken embryo were treated via image processing,including morphological operations,and the Otsu algorithm.Then,the eleven texture features of the chicken embryo were extracted and scaled using grey level co-occurrence matrix,grey histogram statistics,and fractal dimension.The preprocessing method of spectra was determined as the scaling after the experiment.Four spectral features were extracted from the preprocessed spectra via Competitive Adaptive Reweighted Sampling(CARS).After that,two detection models were established using visual features and RF spectral.Five-fold cross-validation was then applied in the task of grid searching
