Researchers have developed a new computer vision framework to automatically quantify fish communities and their biomass from underwater video. This method uses deep learning for fish identification, tracking, and 3D reconstruction to provide species-level abundance and biomass estimates. Applied over 20 days with hourly observations, the system revealed dynamic fluctuations in fish populations, offering a scalable solution for continuous, non-invasive ecological monitoring. AI
