The Hypraptive BearID Project

I started working on a new project combining two of my interests: wildlife and machine learning. The goal of the project is to build a facial recognition system for brown bears which can be used by researchers in conjunction with camera traps and citizen science to non-invasively track and monitor populations. The project, BearID, is open source on GitHub and I'm writing about it on the hypraptive blog.
