Use software to identify new spider species

The software is researched and developed to help scientists quickly determine the prevalence of some species of spiders for biodiversity conservation purposes. With a database of up to 150 detailed images of spider webs are synthesized in detail. The researchers' task is to select, get the best images and remove the extra information.

The middle part of the spider web is the place with the most information to help determine the species of spider species to 99.96%. The research team at Las Palmas University in Spain has only used four species of spiders to study but has brought about almost absolute accuracy. From these principles, the software will be expanded to identify all future spider species.
