AI pipeline for annotating marine species (Project Moorev - Marine)

Abstract

In this tutorial, we will explore a complete pipeline for annotating images and videos of marine species. As an example, we will use a video from the Moorev project, cut into a short clip and available on Zenodo.

About This Material

This is a Hands-on Tutorial from the GTN which is usable either for individual self-study, or as a teaching material in a classroom.
