Multimodal AI Classifies Red Deer Sex and Age from Drone Video

Researchers have developed a multimodal approach to classify sex and life stage in red deer using aerial RGB-thermal video. By fusing data from both sensors at every stage, the pipeline improves accuracy compared to using either modality alone. This automated system can transform drone surveys from simple counts into repeatable demographic assessments, providing crucial data for wildlife management. AI

IMPACT Enables more detailed wildlife population analysis, potentially improving conservation and management strategies.
