Abstract
One of the principal activities in the poultry industry is determine the sex of chickens of one day old. In this paper, we present a non-invasive technique to determine the sex of day-old chickens based on image processing algorithms. The technique analyzes morphometrical attributes from chicken using the slow and rapid growth of primary and secondary feathers patterns and linear discriminant analysis models. Based on the area formed with the superior points of each feather, the technique is capable to determine the sex of day-old chickens with an accuracy of 94.4%, providing a cheap, non-invasive, and high accurate technique that could be implemented onto a dedicated and automated system.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Applied Research and Technology (JART) is a bimonthly open access journal that publishes papers on innovative applications, development of new technologies and efficient solutions in engineering, computing and scientific research. JART publishes manuscripts describing original research, with significant results based on experimental, theoretical and numerical work.
The journal does not charge for submission, processing, publication of manuscripts or for color reproduction of photographs.
JART classifies research into the following main fields:
-Material Science:
Biomaterials, carbon, ceramics, composite, metals, polymers, thin films, functional materials and semiconductors.
-Computer Science:
Computer graphics and visualization, programming, human-computer interaction, neural networks, image processing and software engineering.
-Industrial Engineering:
Operations research, systems engineering, management science, complex systems and cybernetics applications and information technologies
-Electronic Engineering:
