• Abstract summary: This paper presents a multisensor approach that uses AI-based data fusion for insect classification. The system is designed as low-cost setup and consists of a camera module and an optical wing beat sensor. First tests on a small very unbalanced data set with 7 species show promising results for species classification.

• Abstract: Insect populations are declining globally, making systematic monitoring essential for conservation. Most classical methods involve death traps and counter insect conservation. This paper presents a multisensor approach that uses AI-based data fusion for insect classification. The system is designed as low-cost setup and consists of a camera module and an optical wing beat sensor as well as environmental sensors to measure temperature, irradiance or daytime as prior information. The system has been tested in the laboratory and in the field. First tests on a small very unbalanced data set with 7 species show promising results for species classification. The multisensor system will support biodiversity and agriculture studies.

• Towards Scalable Insect Monitoring: Ultra-Lightweight CNNs as On-Device Triggers for Insect Camera Traps [0.10713888959520207]
  Camera traps have emerged as a way to achieve automated, scalable biodiversity monitoring. The passive infrared (PIR) sensors that trigger camera traps are poorly suited for detecting small, fast-moving ectotherms such as insects. This study proposes an alternative to the PIR trigger: ultra-lightweight convolutional neural networks running on low-powered hardware.

  We present an imaging method as part of a multisensor system developed as a low-cost, scalable, open-source system. The system is evaluated exemplarily on a dataset consisting of 16 insect species of the same as well as different genus, family and order. It was proved that image cropping of insects is necessary for classification of species with high inter-class similarity.
