Semantic segmentation of vertebrate microfossils from computed tomography data using a deep learning approach [PDF]
Vertebrate microfossils have broad applications in evolutionary biology and stratigraphy research areas such as the evolution of hard tissues and stratigraphic correlation. Classification is one of the basic tasks of vertebrate microfossil studies.

On Topological Analysis of fs-LIMS Data. Implications for in Situ Planetary Mass Spectrometry
In this contribution, we present results of non-linear dimensionality reduction and classification of the fs laser ablation ionization mass spectrometry (LIMS) imaging dataset acquired from the Precambrian Gunflint chert (1.88 Ga) using a miniature time ...

Possible metazoan egg fossils from the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) of Baltoscandia [PDF]
The Baltoscandian lower Palaeozoic succession is well known for the abundance, diversity and excellent preservation of various groups of microfossils, such as acritarchs, chitinozoans, scolecodonts and conodonts.

Indigenous agglutinated foraminifera from the Eocene La Meseta Formation, Seymour Island, West Antarctica [PDF]
Here are reported the first certainly indigenous agglutinated foraminifera known for the Eocene La Meseta Formation on Seymour Island, West Antarctica. The specimens were identified as Textularia sp. and occur in the upper portion of the unit, just below

Microfossils in the Ordovician erratic boulders from Southwestern Finland [PDF]
Chitinozoans, ostracods and acritarchs found in four glacially transported limestone boulders from the south-western coast of Finland have been studied in order to test the usefulness of these microfossil groups in age determinations. Also rare specimens

On the deglaciation chronology of the Palivere ice-marginal zone, northern Estonia [PDF]
This paper presents new bio-, litho- and chronostratigraphical evidence from two adjacent sediment sequences of the Tõdva and Saku basins, northern Estonia that refine the age estimate of the Palivere ice-marginal zone and the deglaciation history of ...

Recognition of Rare Microfossils Using Transfer Learning and Deep Residual Networks
Various microfossils from the early Cambrian provide crucial clues for understanding the Cambrian explosion and the origin of animal phyla. However, specimens with important anatomical structures are extremely rare and the efficiency of retrieving such ...
