This competition is held jointly as part of #LifeCLEF2026 and #FGVC13 Workshop at #CVPR2026. #Kaggle #DataScience #AI #ComputerVision #MachineLearning #FathomNetCLEF #CVPR #LifeCLEF #FathomNetDatabase

The FathomNet Database has been selected as one of 10 new datasets added to the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource Pilot. We look forward to seeing how this integration can contribute to advances in machine learning and accelerate the analysis of ocean visual data.

Building on previous competitions that focused on out-of-sample detection (2023) and novel category discovery (2024), this year we challenged participants with hierarchical classification.

The response was extraordinary. 1,508 submissions from 109 participants made this our liveliest Kaggle competition yet. With 16 active discussion threads and over 60 comments, the dialogue was thoughtful, constructive, and technically deep.

These competitions are a powerful way to engage the ML community with ocean science while surfacing key challenges that arise when applying ML in complex, data-scarce environments like the deep sea.

It's o-fish-ial, we're making #Julobster a thing.

Happy July, FathomNauts! This month, we're shell-ebrating crustaceans. 🦞🦀🦐 To earn the #Julobster badge, play 3 expeditions with squat lobsters, isopods, and shrimp missions selected! #FathomVerse 📸 NOAA Ocean Exploration

We are making progress and improving #computervision models using annotated data from FathomVerse players! Very exciting to see everything coming together!

New object detector model trained on #FathomVerse data! Object detector models predict where in the image an object of interest is located, without trying to classify it. This model is used for generating AI proposals in the Bound mini-game. Learn more www.fathomverse.game/post/new-obj...

To assist in that upskilling, and to foster a community in which those impacted can help each other build AI skills, the CV4Ecology program is organizing a two-week remote workshop in May of 2025 that will teach AI methods to former US public sector conservation scientists.

The AI for wildlife conservation community has been impacted by recent layoffs in the US public sector; many conservation scientists have reached out to AI practitioners for advice on building AI skills before re-entering the workforce.

In marine ecology, accurate taxonomic classification is essential for addressing fundamental questions: --> What species exist in a particular place? --> What is the ecosystem biodiversity and how does it change over time? [4/5]
