Badass birders braving the rain this morning!! We got soaked, saw cool birds, and got a beautiful rainbow as a reward 🌈

📣 Dr @camerontrotter.bsky.social explains:
"The images are packed full of weird and unusually shaped animals, often living on top of each other - some of which have never been seen before."
The team trained AI to identify seafloor creatures near Antarctica, like starfish, corals, and fish.

This is the same for the UK. I wouldn’t be allowed to book an Airbnb _or_ a conference hotel. Ignoring some nuance, I simply have to take the cheapest option available to me through our contracted travel agent. I do not book hotels or travel myself and claim back, it’s done for me.

🌺 I'll be presenting the work in person this October in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Come say hi at #ICCV2025 if you're around, especially if you're interested in collaborations in the marine vision space!

We
🪸Tackle key challenges in marine imagery: scarce annotations, variable object sizes, & complex seafloor terrain
📷 Combine resolution-preserving patching, spatial augmentation, & SAHI to detect 25 key morphotypes
❄️ Release the first CV dataset of Antarctic benthic organisms
