The Potential of Deep Learning Object Detection in Citizen-Driven Snail Host Monitoring to Map Putative Disease Transmission Sites by Kin Ho Chan, Julius Tumusiime, Liesbet Jacobs, Tine Huyse

“…We conclude that the automatic and instant detection can rapidly and reliably validate data submitted by CSs in the field, ultimately minimizing expert validation efforts and thereby facilitating the mapping of putative schistosomiasis transmission sites. An extension to a mobile application could equip CSs in remote areas with instant learning opportunities and expert-like identification skills, overcoming the need for on-site training and extensive expert intervention.…”
