The red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta Buren is a destructive invasive species that has spread around the world. Early detection of S. invicta nests is critical for effective monitoring and control in invaded regions. This study presents a novel surveillance system for S. invicta nests combining artificial intelligence and robotic dogs. The system was designed with intelligent recognition algorithms to accurately identify S. invicta nests. With a precision rate of 95%, the system yielded efficient detection of S. invicta nests with increased sensitivity and low missing and false discovery rates, which can aid or even replace humans in locating and delivering pesticides to fire ant nests in open fields to effective control of this invasive pest.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
