Classification and identification of wild animals for tracking and protection purposes has become increasingly important with the deterioration of the environment, and technology is the agent of change which augments this process with novel…

Camera traps are important tools in animal ecology for biodiversity monitoring and conservation. However, their practical application is limited by issues such as poor generalization to new and unseen locations. Images are typically…

AI systems in high-consequence domains such as defense, intelligence, and disaster response must detect rare, high-impact events while operating under tight resource constraints. Traditional annotation strategies that prioritize label…

Wildlife trafficking remains a critical global issue, significantly impacting biodiversity, ecological stability, and public health. Despite efforts to combat this illicit trade, the rise of e-commerce platforms has made it easier to sell…

Monitoring critically endangered western lowland gorillas is currently hampered by the immense manual effort required to re-identify individuals from vast archives of camera trap footage. The primary obstacle to automating this process has…

Practitioners interested in using computer vision models lack user-friendly and open-source software that combines features to label training data, allow multiple users, train new algorithms, review output, and implement new models.…

Animal vocalizations provide crucial insights for wildlife assessment, particularly in complex environments such as forests, aiding species identification and ecological monitoring. Recent advances in deep learning have enabled automatic…

Robots need robust and flexible vision systems to perceive and reason about their environments beyond geometry. Most of such systems build upon deep learning approaches. As autonomous robots are commonly deployed in initially unknown…

Wildlife ReID involves utilizing visual technology to identify specific individuals of wild animals in different scenarios, holding significant importance for wildlife conservation, ecological research, and environmental monitoring.…

Animal Re-ID has recently gained substantial attention in the AI research community due to its high impact on biodiversity monitoring and unique research challenges arising from environmental factors. The subtle distinguishing patterns,…

Supervised machine learning methods for image analysis require large amounts of labelled training data to solve computer vision problems. The recent rise of deep learning algorithms for recognising image content has led to the emergence of…

Reliable markerless motion tracking of people participating in a complex group activity from multiple moving cameras is challenging due to frequent occlusions, strong viewpoint and appearance variations, and asynchronous video streams. To…

Agriculture faces a growing challenge with wildlife wreaking havoc on crops, threatening sustainability. The project employs advanced object detection, the system utilizes the Mobile Net SSD model for real-time animal classification. The…

Due to the importance of zero-shot learning, i.e. classifying images where there is a lack of labeled training data, the number of proposed approaches has recently increased steadily. We argue that it is time to take a step back and to…

Birds are important indicators for monitoring both biodiversity and habitat health; they also play a crucial role in ecosystem management. Decline in bird populations can result in reduced eco-system services, including seed dispersal,…

Effective monitoring of wildlife is critical for assessing biodiversity and ecosystem health, as declines in key species often signal significant environmental changes. Birds, particularly ground-nesting species, serve as important…

Estimating camera pose in dynamic environments is a critical challenge, as most visual SLAM and SfM methods assume static scenes. While recent dynamic-aware methods exist, they are often not unified: semantic-based approaches are brittle,…

Machine learning has achieved much success on supervised learning tasks with large sets of well-annotated training samples. However, in many practical situations, such strong and high-quality supervision provided by training data is…

We propose a novel end-to-end curriculum learning approach for sparsely labelled animal datasets leveraging large volumes of unlabelled data to improve supervised species detectors. We exemplify the method in detail on the task of finding…

The rapid expansion of urban areas challenges biodiversity conservation, requiring innovative ecosystem management. This study explores the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in urban biodiversity conservation, its applications, and a…
