| + | * **Share photos to help improve accuracy**: you can share the Birdfeeder's Google Photos photo album with us (the Vizy team) so we can use the pictures to improve the accuracy of the Birdfeeder's detection and classification networks. We bootstrapped the Birdfeeder's networks with pictures from iNaturalist, but most of these pictures are not in birdfeeder contexts. By collecting Vizy's detections in the field we can use them (mostly the misclassifications) to help improve the Birdfeeder App's accuracy. | ||
