Abstract:
Tracks of small animals are important in environmental surveillance, where pattern recognition algorithms allow species identification of the individuals creating tracks. These individuals can also be seen as artists, presented in their natural environments with a canvas upon which they can make prints. We present tracks of small mammals and reptiles which have been collected for identification purposes, and reinterpret them from an esthetic point of view. We re-classify these tracks not by their geometric qualities as pattern recognition algorithms would, but through interpreting the ‘artist’, their brush strokes and intensity. We describe the algorithms used to enhance and present the work of the ‘artists’. © 2010 Institute for Computer Sciences, Social-Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.
