How are AI models assessed during training? 🤖 When a model is trained on data through machine learning, it is usually also tested on a small proportion of the training data, which is called the "validation dataset". 📸: AI generated image by DALLE 3 #AI #machinelearning

Both are important, as they balance each other out. Balancing precision and recall is crucial for creating an effective and reliable AI model. 🙌 #deeplearning #innovation #AIgenerated #fisheries #fisheriesscience #oceanscience #RControl

By monitoring these metrics, researchers are able to decide when the model reaches acceptable performance, or if it needs more training - and perhaps a larger, more robust training dataset. 🦾🤖

We hope you got to celebrate World Ocean Day yesterday!🥳🐙🐠 June 8th is an important day for raising awareness and ensuring collective action for healthier oceans. This is a major goal for #RControl, ensuring that new technology is used for the betterment of our #ocean. 🌍💙

In this debate-article published in Fiskeribladet (The Fisheries Magazine), Asgeir J. Sørensen (NTNU, UiT) and Jørgen Berge (UiT) discuss the potentials and problems with employing AI for marine science. 🌊🐟🎣

The lesser sandeel (Ammodytes marinus) is an elongated, small fish inhabiting the North Atlantic Ocean. It lives near sandy bottoms, where it spends most of its time burrowed under the sand! 🌊🏖 📸: A burrowed #sandeel (By the Institute of Marine Research, Norway)

This is especially important considering the North Sea, where the sandeel is a keystone species - important for the structure and the stability of the entire ecosystem. #fisheriesfact #norwegianfish #fishfacts #marinebiology #fisheriesbiology

In fact, during years when the sandeel population is low, fishing of the species is strictly forbidden. ✖ This helps the population grow, and conserves the North Sea ecosystem. 🧐👍

Did you know that AI can be used to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing?🎣❌🤖 IUU fishing contributes to as much as 20% of total catches, a worrisome pattern contributing to overfishing and imbalance in marine ecosystems. 📉 bbc.com/news/business-685642…

Global Fishing Watch employs an AI model which uses an advanced algorithm analyzing huge amounts of data to uncover these illegal activities. Read more about this in the article above from BBC!🛳️ #endiuufishing #RControl #BBC #SINTEF #AI #machinelearning #innovation #fisheries

The Norwegian shrimp-fishery has long tradition in southern part of the country.🦐 Here, small shrimp-trawlers dominate the fishery. Some vessels operate with a small crew consisting of only one or two people!🧐 📸© 2004 by Tomasz Sienicki, CC BY 2.5, via Wikimedia Commons

These fisheries usually cook their #shrimp (Pandalus borealis) on board, providing freshly cooked shrimp to the markets in Southern #Norway, and also some to the neighbouring country Sweden.🍤🥣 #shrimpfishery #norwegianfisheries #RControl #shrimpfacts #pandalusborealis

Currently, the #quota for shrimp is very low, at only 3530 tons. However, catches so far have been good, which may indicate a better quota for next year.📊
