UK birds Computer Vision Project
UK Bird Identifier
This is a dataset for identifying UK bird species that is actively being added to. Currently 32 of the planned 250 (~13%) of the bird species have been labelled and added.
Current model active on this site is trained for 100 epochs on 25 species.
Process:
- List of ~250ish UK birds
- Use a program to search google for the first 100 images of the latin name of the bird
- Manually remove inaccurate images
- Label primary bird species (and occasionally secondary species)
Main issues:
- Under-representation of female birds in some species
- Under representation of non-mating season birds in some species
- Under-labelling of secondary bird species in images in cluttered images
- Due to inaccuracies of google image search, some bird species are under-represented, such as the whooper swan
Even with all these "issues", it results in a fairly good bird identifier.
Trained Model API
This project has a trained model available that you can try in your browser and use to get predictions via our Hosted Inference API and other deployment methods.
YOLOv8
This project has a YOLOv8 model checkpoint available for inference with Roboflow Deploy. YOLOv8 is a new state-of-the-art real-time object detection model.
