研究人员开发AI,以计算和检测威胁澳大利亚珊瑚礁的有害海胆。 Researchers develop AI to count and detect harmful sea urchins threatening Australian reefs.

昆士兰理工大学的研究人员与一家海产食品公司合作,在渔业研究开发公司的资助下,正在开发人工智能模型,以探测和计算澳大利亚东南部长期存在的海胆。 Researchers at Queensland University of Technology, in partnership with a seafood company and funded by the Fisheries Research and Development Corporation, are developing AI models to detect and count long-spined sea urchins in southeast Australia. 人口激增的海胆 正在通过创造"海胆不育者" 来伤害珊瑚礁的健康 The sea urchins, whose population has surged, are harming reef health by creating "urchin barrens." 当地潜水员将捕捉图像以训练这些AI模型,这些模型最终可用于水下潜水器进行大规模监测。 Local divers will capture images to train these AI models, which could eventually be used in underwater vehicles for large-scale monitoring.
