Scientists Identify More Efficient Means to Determine the Age of Fish Using AI and Near-Infrared Technology
Rapid and reliable age estimation is crucial for effectively and efficiently managing fish stocks. Scientists successfully used a novel technology, Fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR)and artificial intelligence (AI), in combination, to more quickly produce reliable estimates of fish age. Otoliths are small calcified structures in the inner ear of a fish, also known as ear stones. […]
