Analysis of salmon activity in response to Fisheries diseases
Author(s): Lakshmi Shankar*
Analysis of salmon behaviour is a successful method for detecting
environmental toxins that have a negative impact on salmon survival,
production, and quality. Large volumes of non-linear data are produced
when tracking individual and group behaviour, necessitating the use of
specialised computing techniques to interpret and manage the data.
Measures of operational complexity (FD) and predictability (entropy)
are provided by two categories of nonlinear analysis approaches called
fractal dimension (FD) and entropy. Changes in FD and entropy values
can obviously be incorporated into biological early warning systems
(BEWS), which are particularly accurate, because behavioural complexity
and predictability can be modified by pollutants. There are various
salmon farming environments and situations where it can be useful. for
