AI based Framework for Fish Species Identification and Classification
Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, Fish Species, Convolutional Neural NetworksAbstract
Accurate identification of fish species plays a crucial role in fisheries management and conservation. However, traditional methods struggle to address the diverse marine species found in India, resulting in inaccuracies and time-consuming processes. Manual identification by experts becomes particularly challenging, especially for large-scale conservation and monitoring efforts. To tackle this issue, we propose an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based framework for precise and efficient fish species identification in India. Our framework utilizes convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to extract features from fish images and employs the Random Forest Classifier for species identification. Trained on a comprehensive dataset encompassing various regions in India, our model achieved an impressive accuracy of 98.20 percent in rigorous testing, highlighting its effectiveness. Specifically, our proposed Random Forest Classifier exhibited remarkable accuracy in classifying fish species from grayscale images. By employing this AI framework, fish species identification in India can be significantly improved, leading to tangible benefits in fisheries management, conservation efforts, marine biology research, and aquaculture. Furthermore, the versatility of our approach allows its application to other countries with similar fish species diversity, offering potential solutions for real-world scenarios, such as underwater cameras.
