The step of expert taxa recognition currently slows down the response time of many bioassessments. ...
In our study, we investigate both the differences in accuracy and in the identification logic of taxonomic experts and machines. ...
We expect that automatic methods can replace human experts in the routine-like identification of the easiest taxa already in the near future, while the human experts or genetic methods can concentrate ...

Such an ecosystem will facilitate sharing taxonomic expertise among institutions by offering image datasets that are correctly identified by their in-house taxonomic experts. ...
Together with openly accessible machine learning algorithms and easy to use workbenches, this will allow other institutes to train image recognition algorithms and thereby compensate for the lacking expertise ...
In contrast to identifications done by human experts, machine identifications not only deliver taxonomic names, but also metadata about the probability of the determination, the range of taxa considered ...
