Traditional classification methods of marine sponges are labour-intensive and depend on expertise, limiting their scalability, among many other complications. To address these challenges, we developed the “Porifera Classifier”, a deep learning, computer vision model trained on a curated dataset of 16,915 labelled images that allows it to detect and classify up to 126 species of marine sponges. Established through a YOLOv8 architecture, the model ensures state-of-the-art accuracy benchmarks based on the detection of amorphous and highly varying structural objects. It further evaluates the integration of algorithms that compensate for light scattering in underwater recordings. The annotated dataset also serves as a valuable resource for future studies.
