Real-time whale detection

by
University of Sydney
Context

The University of Sydney uses Claude Opus from Anthropic to analyze vast amounts of acoustic data in real time for whale conservation. By transforming underwater sound recordings into spectrograms and using Claude's advanced visual recognition capabilities, they achieved 89.4% accuracy in detecting minke whales, compared to 76.5% with traditional methods. This real-time analysis replaces manual processes that took weeks, allowing conservation teams to act when and where it matters most.

Results

Achieved 89.4% accuracy in minke whale detection, up from 76.5% with traditional methods; transformed a two-week manual process into real-time analysis.
