Robots collaborating with humans in realistic environments will need to be able to detect the tools that can be used and manipulated. However, there is no available dataset or study that addresses this challenge in real settings. In this…

The study of animal behavior increasingly relies on (semi-) automatic methods for the extraction of relevant behavioral features from video or picture data. To date, several specialized software products exist to detect and track animals'…

Machine learning has proved to be a useful tool for extracting knowledge from scientific data in numerous research fields, including astrophysics, genomics, and molecular dynamics. Often, data sets from these research areas need to be…

We introduce an open-source toolkit, i.e., the deep Self End-to-end Learning Framework (deepSELF), as a toolkit of deep self end-to-end learning framework for multi-modal signals. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first public toolkit…

Insects are a crucial part of our ecosystem. Sadly, in the past few decades, their numbers have worryingly decreased. In an attempt to gain a better understanding of this process and monitor the insects populations, Deep Learning may offer…

Recent progress in semantic scene understanding has primarily been enabled by the availability of semantically annotated bi-modal (camera and LiDAR) datasets in urban environments. However, such annotated datasets are also needed for…

Deep learning-based vision is characterized by intricate frameworks that often necessitate a profound understanding, presenting a barrier to newcomers and limiting broad adoption. With many researchers grappling with the constraints of…

We present the iNaturalist Sounds Dataset (iNatSounds), a collection of 230,000 audio files capturing sounds from over 5,500 species, contributed by more than 27,000 recordists worldwide. The dataset encompasses sounds from birds, mammals,…

Machine- and deep-learning approaches for biological sequences depend critically on transforming raw DNA, RNA, and protein FASTA files into informative numerical representations. However, this process is often fragmented across multiple…

Animal affective computing is a quickly growing field of research, where only recently first efforts to go beyond animal tracking into recognizing their internal states, such as pain and emotions, have emerged. In most mammals, facial…

The extraordinary ability of generative models enabled the generation of images with such high quality that human beings cannot distinguish Artificial Intelligence (AI) generated images from real-life photographs. The development of…

Language model (LLM) post-training, from DPO to distillation, can refine behaviors and unlock new skills, but the open science supporting these post-training techniques is still in its infancy. One limiting factor has been the difficulty of…

Biodiversity conservation depends on accurate, up-to-date information about wildlife population distributions. Motion-activated cameras, also known as camera traps, are a critical tool for population surveys, as they are cheap and…

Micropaleontology in geosciences focuses on studying the evolution of microfossils (e.g., foraminifera) through geological records to reconstruct past environmental and climatic conditions. This field heavily relies on visual recognition of…

We introduce Meta-Album, an image classification meta-dataset designed to facilitate few-shot learning, transfer learning, meta-learning, among other tasks. It includes 40 open datasets, each having at least 20 classes with 40 examples per…

The development of foundation vision models has pushed the general visual recognition to a high level, but cannot well address the fine-grained recognition in specialized domain such as invasive species classification. Identifying and…

Recognizing speaking in humans is a central task towards understanding social interactions. Ideally, speaking would be detected from individual voice recordings, as done previously for meeting scenarios. However, individual voice recordings…

Data visualizations can reveal trends and patterns that are not otherwise obvious from the raw data or summary statistics. While visualizing low-dimensional data is relatively straightforward (for example, plotting the change in a variable…

The Big Data landscape poses challenges in managing diverse data formats, requiring efficient storage and processing for high-quality analysis. Effective metadata management is crucial for organizing, accessing, and reusing data within…

Despite the excitement behind biomedical artificial intelligence (AI), access to high-quality, diverse, and large-scale data - the foundation for modern AI systems - is still a bottleneck to unlocking its full potential. To address this…
