AZARCOYA-CABIEDES, Willy; VERA-ALFARO, Pablo; TORRES-RUIZ, Alfonso  and  SALAS-RODRIGUEZ, Joaquín. Automatic detection of bumblebees using video analysis. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2014, vol.81, n.187, pp.81-84. ISSN 0012-7353.  https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v81n186.40475.

In this document, we explore and develop techniques to automatically detect bumblebees flying freely inside a greenhouse, where illumination conditions are left unconstrained, and no artifact is used on their bodies. Specifically, we compare a Viola-Jones classifier and a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier to detect the presence of bumblebees. Our results show that the latter has a better classification performance.

Keywords : Support Vector Machine classifier; Viola-Jones classifier; bumblebee detection.
