Computer Vision AI Internship

Zycus is hiring for the role of Computer Vision AI Intern! Responsibilities of the Intern: • Build and improve models for bird identification from images. • Explore computer vision techniques for challenging real-world bird photographs — different angles, backgrounds, lighting conditions, partially visible birds, etc. • Work on bird-call and bird-song identification using audio ML techniques. • Experiment with approaches such as spectrogram-based classification, audio embeddings, multimodal models and foundation models. • Evaluate existing open-source models and datasets, including approaches similar to BirdNET and other biodiversity AI systems. • Create experiments, benchmark model accuracy and identify ways to improve performance. • Potentially contribute to production features within the Ataavi birding app Requirements: • Strong interest in Computer Vision, Machine Learning or Deep Learning. • Hands-on experience with Python and frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow. • Experience working with image classification, object detection, embeddings, transformers or related techniques. • Some exposure to audio/signal processing or audio classification would be an advantage. • Completed a meaningful research project, paper, internship or independent project in computer vision/ML. • Ability to read research papers and turn ideas into working experiments.
