Hi Everyone,
Sorry for a long period of radio silence! Connor and I are in Baltimore this week at the [IEEE 12th International Conference on eScience](http://escience-2016.idies.jhu.edu) presenting two papers related to Wildlife@Home:
Marshall Mattingly III, Andrew Barnas, Susan Ellis-Felege, Robert Newman, David Iles and Travis Desell. Developing a Citizen Science Web Portal for Manual and Automated Ecological Image Detection. The IEEE 12th International Conference on eScience (eScience 2016). Baltimore, MD, USA. October 23-27, 2016. View PDF.
Connor Bowley, Alicia Andes, Susan Ellis-Felege and Travis Desell. Detecting Wildlife in Uncontrolled Outdoor Video using Convolutional Neural Networks. The IEEE 12th International Conference on eScience (eScience 2016). Baltimore, MD, USA. October 23-27, 2016. View PDF.
I'm hoping to get some server updates done this week, and with any luck we'll have validation and new badges online for the Wildife@Home image classification soon.
We've been working behind the scenes on a new Wildlife@Home application, and things are coming along -- but not quite as swiftly as we'd like. I'm hoping we'll have something online by the end of this semester.
cheers,
