This month we continue our series talking about how you can be one of millions of citizen scientists participating in one of the currently 110 projects on Zooniverse.org. I’ll be reviewing with the NVDA screen reader for Windows 1 of the 4 reasonably screen reader accessible projects that are primarily audio based. This project is called Earthquake Detective, in which you classify hundreds of times sped-up seismograms as earthquake, tremor, noise, or none of the above which refers to an unclear event. As with Humbug, the idea is to train an AI to differentiate seismic activity.
