Hi all, I've published a blog post on rapidly labeling camera trap data using ChatGPT for species identification and a simple object detection model to get the bounding boxes. With this setup, I could run through a set of camera trap recordings and automatically obtain 520 labeled images with detected animals, with only some minutes of manual work by controlling the output, and batch relabel samples of the same species that got different spellings from ChatGPT, e.g. "Alaska moose" and "Alaskan moose".
While presented in Edge Impulse, this approach can be replicated outside the platform using Python scripts for example. I’d love for you to give it a read and share your thoughts on its potential usefulness in real-world applications.
(For now, I limited the complexity to only support images with one bounding box, which works pretty well in environments with mostly solitary species. I'll work on support for multiple animals, especially if there turns out to be a big interest around this!)
