This Bot Hunts Down Starfish ONLY

The crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS) is a significant threat to coral reefs, especially in regions such as the Great Barrier Reef. This spiny starfish preys on corals, and while its consumption of coral might be natural, two factors have exacerbated its threat level: warmer oceans that enable its proliferation and its astounding reproductive rate, with a single female producing up to 200 million eggs.
To combat this menace, engineers introduced COTSBot, an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). This robot was specifically designed to identify and exterminate COTS using a toxin derived from bile, which, while deadly to the starfish, is harmless to other marine creatures. Through advanced machine learning and computer vision, COTSBot achieved a nearly perfect identification accuracy of 99.4%.
However, there were challenges. COTSBot was relatively large and not cost-effective for large-scale deployment. Hence, its successor, RangerBot, was developed. Smaller, cheaper, and armed with a longer battery life, RangerBot doesn't just seek and destroy COTS; it can also monitor water quality, detect coral bleaching, and identify pollution, providing a comprehensive solution for preserving coral reef ecosystems.
While deploying robots to tackle environmental issues might sound unconventional, in the case of the crown-of-thorns starfish, it could be the best hope for saving our precious coral reefs.

I've heard that some marine organisms spread around the worlds oceans by way of their larvae existing in ballast water that vessels take in and subsequently release. Assuming this is a possible way for COTS larvae to spread, it will forever be challenging to maintain their numbers. Having said that, this is a very clever, yet somewhat chilling use of technology.

@unnamedchannel1237 4 ай бұрын

You would be correct . Most countries have a law that ballet water collected from other regions able be dumped at a certain distance from the shore line to help prevent spread but that is not a perfect solution nor is it obeyed in a lot of cases

Idea: bigger toxin tank. Solar cells on top. Nocturnal hunting system using either lights or IR. Slight positive buoyancy requiring power to keep it down. It goes until the battery dies, floats up, recharges, and goes back to hunting when the sun goes down. ET phones home when the toxin tank is low for a service boat to come see it.

As someone who works with computer vision professionally, a 99.4% accuracy means nothing without knowing the distribution of their data. For example, suppose you want to train a model to detect a disease which occurs in 1% of your samples. If your model simply predicted that the patient was healthy for every sample, it would be right 99% of the time, despite being totally useless. I'd be much more interested in knowing their system's precision and recall scores, as opposed to simple accuracy.

@michaelsteinman1314 2 ай бұрын

@@devon9075 It depends on what is worse, a false positive or a false negative. If missing a single cot is the worse scenario, you'd want to minimize your false negatives. On the other hand, if killing a non cot is the worse situation, you'd want to minimize your false positives. That's why you might be interested in recall OR precision. More practically, you'd probably want to look at both precision and recall since it's usually a trade off.
