Revolutionizing Biology with AI: BioCLIP 2
Key Highlights BioCLIP 2 is a biology-based foundation model trained on the largest, most diverse dataset of organisms to date The model can distinguish species’ traits, determine inter- and intraspecies relationships, and even assess the health of an organism BioCLIP 2 has the potential to address the ongoing issue of data deficiency in conservation biology, particularly for lesser-studied species The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and biology has led to significant breakthroughs in recent years. One such innovation is BioCLIP 2, a biology-based foundation model that is poised to revolutionize the field of biology. Developed by Tanya Berger-Wolf, director of the Translational Data Analytics Institute and professor at The Ohio State University, BioCLIP 2 has been trained on an unprecedented dataset of over 214 million images of organisms, spanning 925,000 taxonomic classes. ...
