Area of Science:

Ecology and Conservation Science
Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence

Background:

Manual biological counting methods are labor-intensive and limit scalability in wildlife monitoring.
Deep learning and computer vision offer potential solutions for automating biological counts.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the integration of deep learning and computer vision for automated biological counting.
To evaluate the effectiveness of various AI models and acquisition platforms in ecological assessments.

Main Methods:

Review of literature on deep learning models (CNNs, YOLO, transformers) applied to diverse data sources (camera traps, UAVs, remote sensing).
Analysis of accuracy metrics and challenges across different taxa and ecosystems.

Main Results:

Deep learning methods achieve high accuracy (often >95%) for counting diverse taxa like insects, aquatic organisms, and vegetation.
Successful application across camera traps, UAVs, and remote sensing platforms.

Conclusions:

Automated counting substantially increases data throughput for ecological monitoring.
Future work should prioritize self-supervised learning and data augmentation to overcome challenges like occlusion and data scarcity, enabling robust operational tools.
