AI-enabled detection of unidentified or unregulated boats from high resolution satellite imagery
The Laboratory for Human-Environmental Interactions Modeling and Analysis (HEIMA; https://heima.ua.edu/) is seeking a motivated undergraduate student to support an ongoing National Science Foundation-funded project on Disrupting Illicit Supply Networks. The undergraduate research assistant will support efforts to detect unidentified or unregulated boats (UUBs) from high resolution satellite imagery. This will contribute to a larger study about the routes that cocaine traffickers use to move shipments through Central America to the United States and European Union. Responsibilities: • Downloading satellite images from designated sources based on predefined criteria. • Processing downloaded images through an existing object-detection m...

Across these studies, we also examine how these factors may look similar and different among cisgender women and men, and sexual and gender minority persons. If these topics interest you, students...
