The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Machine learning approaches in automated infant General Movements Assessment: A scoping review

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Automated infant General Movements Assessment increasingly uses machine‐ and deep‐learning approaches to classify movement patterns and estimate cerebral palsy risk from video or sensor data. This scoping review highlights how dataset characteristics, recording environment, pose‐estimation accuracy, feature extraction, and model design influence system
