This technology also has potential in an animal welfare context in livestock science. In this paper we report on research on animal activity recognition in support of welfare monitoring. The data comes from collar-mounted accelerometer sensors worn by Holstein and Jersey calves; the objective being to detect changes in behaviour indicating sickness or stress. A key requirement in detecting changes in behaviour is to be able to classify activities into classes such as drinking, running or walking. In Machine Learning terms, this is a time-series classification task and in recent years the Rocket family of methods have emerged as the state-of-the-art in this area. For our analysis we have over 27 hours of labelled time-series data from 30 calves. We present the performance of Rocket on a 6-class classification task on this data as a baseline. Then we compare this against the performance of 11 Deep Learning (DL) methods that have been proposed as promising methods for time-series.
