#ICYMI In case you missed it, the summer newsletter from FathomNet has all the latest updates from our busy program! Check it out ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gGrwvMpw

This summer, we celebrated the completion of our third and biggest Kaggle competition and successfully connected #FathomVerse with the #FathomNetDatabase. Read our latest newsletter for more updates from our team! 🔗 https://bit.ly/3KyupW1

The FathomNet Database has been selected as one of 10 new datasets added to the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource Pilot. We look forward to seeing how this integration can contribute to advances in machine learning and accelerate the analysis of ocean visual data.

We are thrilled to share that National Geographic Magazine’s September issue features @katycroffbell.bsky.social and the development of DORIS, a low-cost deep-sea imaging system created with @bluerobotics.bsky.social. Read the full article: www.nationalgeographic.com/science/arti...

Congratulations to the winning teams from FathomNet's 2025 Kaggle Competition! Several winning teams discovered that looking at the bigger picture improved their results. 🧵 #Kaggle #CVPR2025 #FGVC #CV4Ecology #FathomNet

It's o-fish-ial, we're making #Julobster a thing.

For #InternationalWomeninEngineeringDay, we're spotlighting MBARI Engineer Kakani Katija, who has been selected as one of @bloomberg.com's “Ones to Watch” for 2025. Kakani's work on @fathomverse.bsky.social has landed her the recognition as a climate champion. www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

We are making progress and improving #computervision models using annotated data from FathomVerse players! Very exciting to see everything coming together!

10 days left to submit an entry to the FathomNet Kaggle challenge – Navigating the Depths: Advancing Hierarchical Classification of Ocean Life! 🐙🧪👩🏽‍💻🌊 www.kaggle.com/competitions... @kakanikatija.bsky.social @mbarinews.bsky.social @cvprconference.bsky.social @fgvcworkshop.bsky.social @kaggle.com

#ICYMI the entire FathomNet Workshop is now available to watch on YouTube! Watch now to learn more about the FathomNet Database, FathomVerse 2.0, and how to contribute data, use FathomNet models, and engage enthusiasts through FathomVerse.

Please share broadly to your networks so this can reach its intended audience! And we are also looking for volunteers to help instruct/mentor. Details here: cv4ecology.caltech.edu/ai-upskillin...

To assist in that upskilling, and to foster a community in which those impacted can help each other build AI skills, the CV4Ecology program is organizing a two-week remote workshop in May of 2025 that will teach AI methods to former US public sector conservation scientists.

The AI for wildlife conservation community has been impacted by recent layoffs in the US public sector; many conservation scientists have reached out to AI practitioners for advice on building AI skills before re-entering the workforce.

In marine ecology, accurate taxonomic classification is essential for addressing fundamental questions: --> What species exist in a particular place? --> What is the ecosystem biodiversity and how does it change over time? [4/5]
