Floralens: a Deep Learning Model for the Portuguese Native Flora

ArXi:2403.12072v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Machine-learning techniques, especially deep convolutional neural networks, are pivotal for image-based identification of biological species in many Citizen Science platforms. In this paper, we describe the construction of a dataset for the Portuguese native flora based on publicly available research-grade datasets, and the derivation of a high-accuracy model from it using off-the-shelf deep convolutional neural networks.
