In response to an escalating crisis of wildlife poaching, the Conservation AI project aims to harness machine learning with a focus on video and image analytics to gain insights into animal/people interactions in the wild. We'll present our work and the technologies implemented in our conservationai.co.uk system including projects with Knowsley Safari in the UK, the Endangered Wildlife Trust in South Africa, and the Greater Mahale Ecosystem Research and Conservation team. The session will cover both accelerated training and inference pipelines using Docker, TensorFlow-serving using NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000, Tesla T4-GPU and NVIDIA cuDNN.
