No Trout About it, That’s Definitely Dave: A Novel Approach to Knowing Westslope Cutthroat Trout
Mentor: Thor Veen
Does it make sense to perform highly invasive studies on the very species we’re trying to
protect? Not particularly. That’s why ecologists and computer scientists are teaming up to
employ state-of-the-art techniques in the world of conservation. In this presentation you’ll
learn how Computer Vision is being used to revolutionize mark-recapture studies in a
non-invasive way, and the cool math behind a new technique for “knowing” individual
Westslope Cutthroat Trout.
