TrapperAI model for for 18 European mammal species classification

## 🐺 Overview The TrapperAI model is responsible for the detection and classification of 18 European mammal species with a **95% F1-score** and **93% mAP50-95**. This model is based on the fine-tuned [YOLOv8-m](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics) model and can be loaded and utilized directly through the Ultralytics package interface or via the TRAPPER ecosystem ([TrapperAI Worker](https://gitlab.com/trapper-project/trapper-ai-worker)). The dataset used for model training and evaluation comprised **401,458** camera trap images from Poland, Germany, Sweden, Austria, and Switzerland. The data repository consisted of **5,680 deployments** and **2,944 locations**. List of supported species: * Bird * Cat * Chamois * Dog * Eurasian Lynx * Eurasian Red Squirrel * European Badger * European Mouflon * Fallow Deer * Gray Wolf * Hare * Marten * Moose * Red Deer * Red Fox * Reindeer * Roe Deer * Wild Boar The recommended image resolution for the model is 1024px. The model's performance enables the processing of ~30,000 images in one hour using a single NVIDIA GPU with more than 11 GB of vRAM. ## 🏢 Who is using TRAPPER? * Mammal Research Institute Polish Academy of Sciences; * Karkonosze National Park; * Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences; * Svenska Jägareförbundet; * Meles Wildbiologie; * University of Freiburg Wildlife Ecology and Management; * Bavarian Forest National Park; * Georg-August-Universität Göttingen; * KORA - Carnivore Ecology and Wildlife Management; * and many more individual scientists and ecologies; ## 💲 Funders and Partners
