Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 0:
1. An animal management system comprising:
one or more imaging devices;
a computing device coupled to the one or more imaging devices, wherein the computing device is configured to:
receive one or more images captured by the one or more imaging devices;
process the one or more images using an artificial intelligence (AI) pipeline having a plurality of AI models to:
detect and locate in the one or more images at least one animal; and
for one of the detected animals in an image of the one or more images:
process the image of the detected animal to generate one or more bounding boxes corresponding to one or more sections of the detected animal;
determine, in a bounding box of each section using one of the AI models, a plurality of key points corresponding to anatomical features of the detected animal used to identify the detected animal, wherein the plurality of key points is determined in response to a type of the detected animal and a part of the detected animal that the section corresponds to;
normalize each of the one or more sections, based on the determined key points for the one or more sections, by projecting the determined key points of each of the one or more sections to a common plane based on a reference template indicating where key points are expected to be located based on the section and species of the detected animal;
generate embeddings for each normalized section of the image; and
combine the embeddings for generating an identification or classification of the detected animal with a confidence score.
