exploration, we always need to detect new species,” he explains. “Therefore, in this work, we performed the first attempt to do some open-vocabulary object detection.” This allows models to identify objects beyond a fixed set of categories. In domains like marine science, where biodiversity is vast, and many species remain understudied, that flexibility is especially important. Developing the dataset also highlighted how interdisciplinary research can introduce new challenges of its own. Kit points out that building effective collaboration with marine scientists requires significant effort and communication. While many researchers in marine science are interested in using AI, integrating it into their workflows requires careful discussion about how the tools can 12 DAILY WACV Sunday Oral Presentation
