ESCAPE DETECTION AND MITIGATION FOR AQUACULTURE
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for escape detection and mitigation for aquaculture. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining one or more images that depict one or more fish within an enclosure; generating, as a result of providing the one or more images to multiple detection models, a value that reflects a quantity of fish that are depicted in the images that are likely a member of each different type of fish; detecting an error condition relating to a possible opening of the enclosure based at least on the value; and in response to detecting the error condition relating to the possible opening of the enclosure, initiating one or more mitigation actions relating to the possible opening.

Turbidity determination using computer vision
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that generate from a first pair and a second pair of images of livestock that are within an enclosure and that are taken at different times using a stereoscopic camera, at least two distance distributions of the aquatic livestock within the enclosure. The distance distributions can be used to determine a measure associated with an optical property of the water within the enclosure. A signal associated with the measure can be provided.

MULTI-MODAL AQUATIC BIOMASS ESTIMATION
Computer-implemented techniques for multi-modal aquatic biomass estimation includes determining a fish mass measurement, a fish count, or a direct fish biomass estimate from a sample of one or more digital images or digital video captured by a digital camera immersed underwater in a fish farm enclosure. A technique further includes determining a plurality of fish densities for a plurality of water volumes within the fish farm enclosure based on analysis of signals received from a plurality of bias estimation sensors immersed underwater in the fish farm enclosure. The technique also includes computing a bias-adjusted fish mass measurement, fish count, or direct fish biomass estimate for the fish farm enclosure based on (i) the fish mass measurement, the fish count, or the direct fish biomass estimate determined from the sample of one or more digital images or digital video captured by the digital camera immersed underwater in the fish farm enclosure and (ii) the plurality of fish densities determined for the plurality of water volumes.
MULTIPLE MODE ARTIFICIAL FISHING LURE
A multiple mode fishing lure that includes a main body portion having a waterproof inner capsule, the waterproof inner capsule containing an electronic circuit to produce sounds which mimic bait fish. The electronic circuit includes a controller having pre-recorded bait fish sounds replaceably stored thereon and operationally coupled to a speaker to broadcast the bait fish sounds, a power source for providing power to the components of the electronic circuit, and a plurality of electrodes, wherein each electrode can be actuated, and wherein actuation of at least one of the plurality of electrodes gives an operational result. The multiple mode fishing lure further includes at least one hook coupled to the main body.

IMAGE PROCESSING-BASED WEIGHT ESTIMATION FOR AQUACULTURE
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for fish weight estimation based on fish tracks identified in images. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining images of fish enclosed in a fish enclosure, identifying fish tracks shown in the images of the fish, determining a quality score for each of the fish tracks, selecting a subset of the fish tracks based on the quality scores, determining a representative weight of the fish in the fish enclosure based on weights of the fish shown in the subset of the fish tracks, and outputting the representative weight for display or storage at a device connected to the one or more processors
