Sea world is full of adventures. There are still many such creatures we do not know. Scientists have prepared new AI systems to identify them. Researchers from other countries, including India, have teamed up together to create a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) program, which will identify and identify species of micro-organisms.

Other researchers, including Ritan Mitra of IIT Bombay, say that now the AI ​​system will be included in the robotic system, which will help in enhancing our understanding of the world's oceans. With this, current and pre-historic past information can be obtained. Riten has previously been the postdoctoral researcher of the North Carolina State University of the United States.

According to a study published in the Marine Microtellentology Journal, the AI ​​program has proved to be capable of identifying six species of ferraminephera. These are the creatures that are residing in the oceans of the earth for 100 million years. Foraminifera protists are neither plants nor animals. When they die, they leave the small shell behind them, which are less than one millimeter wide. These shells give information to the scientists about the characteristics of oceans. Because they were still existent when the foramininifera was alive.

As a result, various species of foraminifera flourish in different types of marine environments and chemical measurements. Therefore, after the construction of their shell, scientists get complete information about the chemical and temperature of the sea. However, taking information about fossils is very tedious and it takes too much time in those shells. Edgar Lobton, associate professor of North Carolina State University, said that at this place, the Ai system correctly identifies 80 percent of ferriminifera, which is even more accurate than a trained man.

Scientists have said that we are improving the AII system right now because as often the improvement will be able to provide information more accurately. Scientists have also informed that there is a plan to increase the scope of the AI ​​system, so that it can identify 35 species of ferriminiferas.

Works like this

Currently a foraminifera is placed on the microscope. It is highlighted from 16 directions through the LED and photos are taken from every direction. After this, the geometrical composition is created to give these 16 images more and more information. The Ai system then receives this information and tells the species of foraminifera. This process only takes a few seconds.
