In this paper, we propose a large-scale video based animal counting dataset collected by drones (AnimalDrone) for agriculture and wildlife protection. The dataset consists of two subsets, i.e., PartA captured on site by drones and PartB collected fro...
Similarity learning using deep convolutional neural networks has been applied extensively in solving computer vision problems. This attraction is supported by its success in one-shot and zero-shot classification applications. The advances in similari...
Inexpensive and accessible sensors are accelerating data acquisition in animal ecology. These technologies hold great potential for large-scale ecological understanding, but are limited by current processing approaches which inefficiently distill dat...
Worldwide, the persistent trend of human and animal life losses, as well as damage to properties due to wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVCs) remains a significant source of concerns for a broad range of stakeholders. To mitigate their occurrences and i...
Using machine learning (ML) to automate camera trap (CT) image processing is advantageous for time-sensitive applications. However, little is currently known about the factors influencing such processing. Here, we evaluate the influence of occlusion,...
With the global issue of marine debris ever expanding, it is imperative that the technology industry steps in. The aim is to find if deep learning can successfully distinguish between marine life and synthetic debris underwater. This study assesses w...
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, artificial intelligence, and the relevant hardware can be used for monitoring wild animals. However, existing methods have several limitations. Therefore, this study explored the monitoring and protection of ...
