This study introduces an end-to-end artificial intelligence (AI) system for assessing beehive health, comprising bee object detection and health evaluation. The system utilizes both visual and audio signals to analyze bee behaviors and a novel Attention-based Multimodal Neural Network (AMNN) is developed to adaptively focus on key features from each type of signal. The AMNN achieves an overall accuracy of 92.61%, surpassing existing single-signal models, while maintaining efficient processing times. Additionally, the study demonstrates that audio signals are more reliable than images for assessing bee health.

Bees are super important for our food supply, but their numbers have been declining by a lot recently due to things like pesticides and pests. It’s hard to keep track of bee colonies because traditional methods are time-consuming and not very accurate. Scientists used artificial intelligence (AI) to try and figure out how to better monitor beehives. They came up with a system that uses both pictures and sounds from the bees to make predictions about their health. This new AI model is really good at predicting bee health, better than other models that only use one type of signal or the other.
