We use Timelapse to annotate pictures and delegate laborious object-detection and instance-segmentation tasks to MegaDetector and SAM2. YOLO does the rest! 000

David Bolduc @belette-runner.bsky.social · 17/11/2025So excited to shared this project lead with @fredericddb.bsky.social and many enthusiastic ecologists. We played as predators and prey and with quite simple rules and were able to reproduce phenomenon observed in nature. doi.org/10.1111/2041... @methodsinecoevol.bsky.social 174
