AI Trends April 29, 2021 By AI Trends Staff AI is being applied to whale research, especially to understand what whales are trying to communicate in the audible sounds they make to each other in the ocean.  For example, marine biologist Shane Gero has worked to match clicks coming from whales around the Caribbean island nation of Dominica, to behavior he hopes will reveal the meanings of the sounds they make. Gero is a behavioral ecologist affiliated with the Marine Bioacoustics Lab at Aarhus University in Denmark, and the Department of Biology of Dalhousie University of Halifax, Nova Scotia.  Shane Gero, founder, Dominica Sperm Whale Project
