TLDR: We might not be doing as badly as we thought on rare species when using active learning to label ecological data. This was something that had been bugging me for a while!! Awesome work led by @RupaKVendhan 683 views · 12 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 09 Jun 2026 · Open on X →

As ecological data collection scales, expert-in-the-loop annotation is becoming essential. These workflows are inherently transductive: the goal is to efficiently label a fixed pool of collected data. https://t.co/3GhkhAckJU 979 views · 7 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies 09 Jun 2026 · Open on X →

@EdwardVendrow @juliachae_ @RupaKVendhan @NeurIPSConf The work has been supported in part by my @schmidtsciences AI2050 fellowship, and the Schmidt Virtual Institute of Scientific Software has recently supported our effort to deploy the tool on @iNaturalist in partnership with th 390 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies 25 Nov 2025 · Open on X →

Watch the full talk at https://t.co/gaAnzrM7Vb If you're interested in learning more about the science behind it, we've just released a preprint describing the methodology and the tool we've built: https://t.co/QV8I0iGyJn 264 views · 4 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies 25 Nov 2025 · Open on X →

This work is a collaboration with a large team of diverse ecologists, led by my students @EdwardVendrow @juliachae_ and @RupaKVendhan. It started, as many AI efforts to address new challenges do, with the development of a benchmark: https://t.co/Fg3CgSRmWq (@NeurIPSConf 2024) 242 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies 25 Nov 2025 · Open on X →

How do we do more with biodiversity data we've already collected? I gave a TED Talk on scientific discovery in ecological databases at a @TEDCountdown and @BezosEarthFund event for #NYClimateWeek this year, and it's now live! @TEDTalks @inaturalist #AIforConservation https:// 13.9K views · 112 likes · 22 reposts · 16 replies 25 Nov 2025 · Open on X →
