Original Abstract

This project deals with visual detection of starlings. The aim is to create an early warning de-tection system that protects crops from flocks of starlings. This system uses a computer vi-sion and machine learning algorithms. In the first phase, the activity in the vineyard was col-lected. Further, the neural network model using cloud-based AutoML platform was trained. The final system classifies objects into several categories. These categories include individual birds, flocks and various unintended objects such as flies and bees. Overall, the flock detec-tion algorithm achieved 89% accuracy and 94% sensitivity.
