초록

Domestic dogs display a range of postures, facial expressions, and other body language cues that can be used to evaluate their emotional and mental state; however, many do not understand the meaning of theses signals. In this study, we recognized calming signal of companion dogs using a mobile application powered by MobileNetV2. Specifically, we recognized calming signal such as “Play bowing”, which indicates to reinitiate play after a pause, and “Licking nose”, which indicates nervousness. We conducted a user survey with 44 dog owners to investigate if this mobile application provides positive user experiences, and received positive responses. © 2024 Myungjin Kang, et al.
