I’m Wout Decrop, I studied Bio-Science Engineering at Ghent University and Aarhus University.
I currently work as a Researcher at the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), where I focus on applying AI and machine learning to marine conservation.

🔭 I'm currently working on Acoustic vessel detection to protect Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) Phytoplankton classification models for ecological monitoring and conservation Applying AI to real-world environmental problems 🌍🌊
-
🌱 I'm currently learning AI / ML applications with real impact (science, conservation, monitoring) Projects using CNNs, deep learning, and audio or image data Fun, experimental side projects exploring new methods or ideas
-
👯 I'm looking to collaborate on Any fun or interesting ML or design projects
-
🤝 I'm looking for help with Best practices in ML research & production Writing cleaner, more scalable PyTorch / TensorFlow code Model evaluation, generalization, and reproducibility
-
💬 Ask me about Acoustic monitoring & vessel noise CNNs for environmental data Phytoplankton, marine conservation, and applied AI Combining a bioscience engineering background with machine learning
