CNN Mosquito Habitat Detection Research
Title: Autonomous Mosquito Habitat Detection using Satellite Imagery and Convolutional Nueral Networks for Disease Risk Mapping
Researchers: Sriram Elango, Nandini Ramachandran
Data Collection: Data collected between 6/21 - 8/21 from variety of geographic regions
Summary: This research presents an evalutaion of multiple CNN models that aim to autonomously predict the presence of mosquito habitats by running inference on readily available satellite imagery. By determining the locations of potentially dangerous breeding grounds, we can aid in the prevention of the global transmission of mosquito borne vector diseases.
