A low-cost, long-term underwater camera trap network coupled with deep residual learning image analysis.

PloS one Feb 2, 2022
Understanding long-term trends in marine ecosystems requires accurate and repeatable counts of fishes and other aquatic organisms on spatial and temporal scales that are difficult or impossible to achieve with diver-based surveys. Long-term, spatiall...

Automated classification of three-dimensional reconstructions of coral reefs using convolutional neural networks.

PloS one Mar 24, 2020
Coral reefs are biologically diverse and structurally complex ecosystems, which have been severally affected by human actions. Consequently, there is a need for rapid ecological assessment of coral reefs, but current approaches require time consuming...

A Dexterous, Glove-Based Teleoperable Low-Power Soft Robotic Arm for Delicate Deep-Sea Biological Exploration.

Scientific reports Oct 3, 2018
Modern marine biologists seeking to study or interact with deep-sea organisms are confronted with few options beyond industrial robotic arms, claws, and suction samplers. This limits biological interactions to a subset of "rugged" and mostly immotile...

Mapping of the corals around Hendorabi Island (Persian Gulf), using WorldView-2 standard imagery coupled with field observations.

Marine pollution bulletin Mar 23, 2018
High spatial resolution WorldView-2 (WV2) satellite imagery coupled with field observations have been utilized for mapping the coral reefs around Hendorabi Island in the northern Persian Gulf. In doing so, three standard multispectral bands (red, gre...

Using tropical reef, bird and unrelated sounds for superior transfer learning in marine bioacoustics.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences Jun 12, 2025
Machine learning has the potential to revolutionize passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) for ecological assessments. However, high annotation and computing costs limit the field's adoption. Generalizable pretrained networks can overcome these costs, but...

Identification of putative coral pathogens in endangered Caribbean staghorn coral using machine learning.

Environmental microbiology Sep 1, 2024
Coral diseases contribute to the rapid decline in coral reefs worldwide, and yet coral bacterial pathogens have proved difficult to identify because 16S rRNA gene surveys typically identify tens to hundreds of disease-associate bacteria as putative p...

Parsing human and biophysical drivers of coral reef regimes.

Proceedings. Biological sciences Feb 13, 2019
Coral reefs worldwide face unprecedented cumulative anthropogenic effects of interacting local human pressures, global climate change and distal social processes. Reefs are also bound by the natural biophysical environment within which they exist. In...
