Camera-traps

The Camera Traps application is both a simulator and IoT device software for utilizing machine learning on the edge in field research. The first implementation specializes in applying computer vision (detection and classification) to wildlife images for animal ecology studies. Two operational modes are supported: "simulation" mode and "demo" mode. When executed in simulation mode, the software serves as a test bed for studying ML models, protocols and techniques that optimize storage, execution time, power and accuracy. It requires an input dataset of images to act as the images that would be generated an IoT camera device; it uses these images to drive the simulation.

CT-Controller

The ctcontroller tool can be used to manage the provisioning and releasing of edge hardware as well as running and shutting down the camera-traps application.

OpenPass

The Decentralized Microservice Drone System for Digital Agriculture is a distributed, scalable platform designed to orchestrate autonomous drone operations for agricultural field missions. The system captures, processes, and analyzes aerial imagery and video data to support precision agriculture, crop monitoring, and field management operations.

Tapis UI Extension

This tapis ui extension enables additional icicle specific branding and tabs on tapisui.

Video-Based Animal Re-Identification (VARe-ID) from Multiview Spatio-Temporal Track Clustering

This work presents a modular software pipeline and end-to-end workflow for video-based animal re-identification, which assigns consistent individual IDs by clustering multiview spatio-temporal tracks with minimal human intervention. Starting from raw video, the system detects and tracks animals, scores and selects informative left/right views, computes embeddings, clusters annotations by viewpoint, and then links clusters across time and varying perspectives using spatio-temporal continuity. Automated consistency checks resolve remaining ambiguities. Preliminary experiments demonstrate near-perfect identification accuracy with very limited manual verification. The workflow is designed to be generalizable across species. Currently, trained models support Grevy’s and Plains zebras, with plans to expand to a broader range of species.
