Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for predicting female sex bovine offspring to result from a bovine embryo by processing video image data of the embryo. The method includes receiving image data derived from video of a target embryo taken at substantially real-time frame speed during an embryo observation period of time. The video contains recorded morphokinetic movement of the target embryo occurring during the embryo observation period of time. The movement is represented in the received image data and the received image data is processed using a model generated utilizing machine learning and correlated embryo outcome data.
Claims30
A method for assessing a bovine embryo by processing real-time video image data of the embryo, the method comprising:
- obtaining real-time video of a target embryo having frame speed at least as fast as two frames per second, said real-time video comprising image data representing micro-motions of the target embryo;
- and
- processing said image data using a trained machine learning model and thereby predicting a likelihood the target embryo will produce a female bovine offspring.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored therein, which when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- assess a bovine embryo by processing real-time video image data of the embryo, said assessment comprising:
- receiving real-time video of a target embryo having frame speed at least as fast as two frames per second, said real-time video comprising image data representing micro-motions of the target embryo;
- and
- processing said image data using a trained machine learning model and thereby predicting a likelihood the target embryo will produce a female bovine offspring.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising computer-readable instructions, which when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to process real-time video image data of a bovine embryo comprising:
- receiving real-time video of a target embryo having frame speed at least as fast as two frames per second, said real-time video comprising image data representing micro-motions of the target embryo;
- and
- processing said image data using a trained machine learning model and thereby predicting a likelihood the target embryo will produce a female bovine offspring.
