Automated identification of Chagas disease vectors using AlexNet pre-trained convolutional neural networks.

Medical and veterinary entomology
The 158 bug species that make up the subfamily Triatominae are the potential vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease. Despite recent progress in developing a picture-based automated system for identification of triatomin...

Machine-learning model led design to experimentally test species thermal limits: The case of kissing bugs (Triatominae).

PLoS neglected tropical diseases
Species Distribution Modelling (SDM) determines habitat suitability of a species across geographic areas using macro-climatic variables; however, micro-habitats can buffer or exacerbate the influence of macro-climatic variables, requiring links betwe...
