• Abstract summary: We propose the Camera Trap Language-guided Contrastive Learning (CATALOG) model to address these issues. Our approach combines multiple FMs to extract visual and textual features from camera-trap data and uses a contrastive loss function to train the model. We evaluate CATALOG on two benchmark datasets and show that it outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods in camera-trap image recognition.

• Abstract: Foundation Models (FMs) have been successful in various computer vision tasks like image classification, object detection and image segmentation. However, these tasks remain challenging when these models are tested on datasets with different distributions from the training dataset, a problem known as domain shift. This is especially problematic for recognizing animal species in camera-trap images where we have variability in factors like lighting, camouflage and occlusions. In this paper, we propose the Camera Trap Language-guided Contrastive Learning (CATALOG) model to address these issues. Our approach combines multiple FMs to extract visual and textual features from camera-trap data and uses a contrastive loss function to train the model. We evaluate CATALOG on two benchmark datasets and show that it outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods in camera-trap image recognition, especially when the training and testing data have different animal species or come from different geographical areas. Our approach demonstrates the potential of using FMs in combination with multi-modal fusion and contrastive learning for addressing domain shifts in camera-trap image recognition. The code of CATALOG is publicly available at https://github.com/Julian075/CATALOG.

  The goal of this paper is to detect what has changed, if anything, between two "in the wild" images of the same 3D scene. We contribute a change detection model that is trained entirely on synthetic data and is class-agnostic.
