Description

The pre-trained Plankton Imager (Pi-10) Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models provide a ready-to-use deep learning solution for automated zooplankton image classification. Built upon the FlowCam phytoplankton classifier developed by VLIZ within the iMagine project, the Pi-10 pre-trained models efficiently recognize and categorize planktonic organisms from Pi-10 images, with a focus on the Southern North Sea.

The current datasets holds the model ‘Dasysyrphus
