HEALTH: good, watch, or alarm
NOTES: one short sentence describing what you see
Definitions:
- Queens are noticeably larger bees with elongated abdomens.
- Varroa mites are small reddish-brown parasites on bees or comb cells.
- Swarm cells are peanut-shaped cells hanging from the bottom or edges of the comb.
- Brood pattern is solid when capped cells are tightly packed, spotty when scattered.
- Only say "yes" when you can clearly see the feature."""

## Apiarist
An offline AI hive frame inspector for backyard beekeepers. Built in
10 days for the [Build Small Hackathon](https://huggingface.co/build-small-hackathon).
### The problem
Frank, a beekeeper down the road, keeps 14 hives and inspects each
weekend by hand. Last summer he lost four colonies to queen failures
he didn't spot in time. Apiarist is the assistant he should have had:
fast, focused, runs on a laptop in a field, never sends his hive data
anywhere.
### How it works
Two models, two jobs:
- **YOLOv8s, custom-trained** (22 MB), finds bees, drones, queens, and
varroa mites with bounding boxes. CPU-fast.
- **Qwen2.5-VL-3B-Instruct**, takes the image + YOLO detection counts
and writes a narrative inspection report. Runs on ZeroGPU.
Together: structured detection + narrative report in ~5 seconds, no
internet required.
### What's in the box
- **Inspect**, upload a frame, get an annotated image + report
- **Hives**, registry, per-hive inspection history, weekly PDF reports
- **Compare**, Apiarist vs raw generalist VLM, side-by-side
- SQLite persistence for the whole apiary
### Stack
- Vision-language model: [Qwen2.5-VL-3B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-3B-Instruct)
- Specialist detector: [Apiarist Honey-Bee Detector (custom YOLOv8s)](https://huggingface.co/maryammeda/apiarist-honey-bee-detector)
- Training data: [Hendricks Ricky bee-project](https://universe.roboflow.com/hendricks_ricky-hotmail-de/bee-project) on Roboflow Universe (3,308 labeled images, 892 queens)
- Bee imagery: [Apiarist iNaturalist bees dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/maryammeda/apiarist-inaturalist-bees)
- Compute: Modal (training), Hugging Face ZeroGPU (inference)
- Frontend: Gradio with custom field-tool theme
