Ludwig Bothmann Is Featured in a Documentary by Bayerischer Rundfunk
Zu Viel Los Im Wald? Mit KI Auf Den Spuren Von Tieren Und Menschen
MCML member Ludwig Bothmann, PostDoc in the group of Director Bernd Bischl is featured in a documentary by Bayerischer Rundfunk titled: "Zu viel los im Wald? Mit KI auf den Spuren von Tieren und Menschen".
In Bavaria, where there is a legal right to freely access nature, encounters between humans and animals frequently occur in forests. The documentary addresses the question of whether wildlife is suffering from the added stress caused by humans and whether animals still have sufficient quiet zones. To answer this question, AI will be employed to analyze footage from various wildlife cameras.
Ludwig Bothmann, as an AI expert, is helping to develop the model and explains some of the challenges the researchers face as well as some advantages of using an AI for this analysis.
