Eyes in the sky: Drone monitoring of the largest gharial and mugger populations in the East Rapti River, Chitwan National Park.

PloS one
Drone-based aerial monitoring can play a pivotal role in scaling up efforts to monitor species at risk. In this study, we assessed the population size, occupancy, and spatial interactions of gharials and muggers in the Eastern Rapti River and its tri...

Species richness is an important mediator of multifunctionality changes in Hobq desert shrub ecosystem.

Scientific reports
Studying the biodiversity and multifunctionality relationships of the Hobq Desert shrub ecosystem and its response to environmental factors is crucial for ecological restoration in the region. In this study, we examined variations in biodiversity and...

Advancing smart communities with a deep learning framework for sustainable resource management.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: The rapid development of urban systems and rising requirements for sustainable development lift resource management issues in smart communities. A fundamental problem for contemporary communities involves effectively using energy and wate...

Advancing fishery dependent and independent habitat assessments using automated image analysis: A fisheries management agency case study.

PloS one
Advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning have revolutionised data analysis, including in the field of marine and fisheries sciences. However, many fisheries agencies manage sensitive or proprietary data that cannot be shared externall...

Indigenous wood species classification using a multi-stage deep learning with grad-CAM explainability and an ensemble technique for Northern Bangladesh.

PloS one
Wood species recognition has recently emerged as a vital field in the realm of forestry and ecological conservation. Early studies in this domain have offered various methods for classifying distinct wood species found worldwide using data collected ...

Neural network-based identification for scallops (Pecten maximus) in natural marine habitats.

PloS one
The Great Atlantic scallop, or King scallop (Pecten maximus), ranks third in value after mackerel and Nephrops in UK fisheries. Its landings have surged over recent decades, making it the UK's fastest-growing fishery. Scallop stock assessments, cruci...

Considering the Social and Economic Sustainability of AI.

Science and engineering ethics
In recent years, the notion of 'sustainable AI' has emerged as a new topic within the wider debate on artificial intelligence (AI). Although sustainability is usually understood as having three dimensions - the environment, society, and the economy -...

Little-to-no industrial fishing occurs in fully and highly protected marine areas.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
There is a widespread perception that illegal fishing is common in marine protected areas (MPAs) due to strong incentives for poaching and the high cost of monitoring and enforcement. Using artificial intelligence and satellite-based Earth observatio...

Multi-modal deep learning for intelligent landscape design generation: A novel CBS3-LandGen model.

PloS one
With the acceleration of the global urbanization process, landscape design is facing increasingly complex challenges. Traditional manual design methods are gradually unable to meet the needs for efficiency, precision, and sustainability. To address t...

The intelligent evaluation model of the English humanistic landscape in agricultural industrial parks by the SPEAKING model: From the perspective of fish-vegetable symbiosis in new agriculture.

PloS one
To more accurately capture the expression of the English humanistic landscape in agricultural industrial parks under the emerging agricultural paradigm of fish-vegetable symbiosis, and to address the limitations of unscientific evaluation standards a...
