An AI Software Able To Detect And Count Plastic Waste In The Ocean
It is both very clever and simple and you could use this same model for many image classification applications. FMMLs Odei Garcia-Garin et al. from the University of Barcelona have developed a deep learning-based algorithm able to detect and quantify floating garbage from aerial images. They also made a web-oriented application allowing users to identify …
From Hobart, To London, To Dhaka: Using Cameras And AI To Build An Automatic Litter Detection System
It’s estimated about two million tonnes of plastics enter the oceans from rivers each year. But our waterways aren’t just conveyor belts transporting land waste to the oceans: they also capture and retain litter. Currently, the most common method for monitoring litter relies on humans conducting on-ground visual counts. This process is labour-intensive and makes …
