Production-Grade Veterinary Pathogen Classifier

🧬 ASTPredict v1.0.0 - Production Release

We are excited to present the production-ready release of ASTPredict, a robust offline mobile application designed to detect and classify 24 species of veterinary-relevant bacterial pathogens directly from agar culture plate photographs.

Built completely offline for One Health diagnostics, ASTPredict runs a high-performance YOLOv8 deep learning model entirely on-device, requiring no internet connectivity.

🌟 Key Features

• Offline Deep Learning Inference: High-precision bacteriological colony classification powered by an integrated best_float32.tflite model.
• Interactive Live Camera Preview: Designed with CameraX and custom petri dish alignment guide overlays to optimize photo capture angles and consistency.
• Local Persistence (Room SQLite): Safely saves plate history, diagnostic metrics, timestamps, and species counts.
• Configurable ML Thresholds: Adjust Confidence, Intersection over Union (IoU) limits, and Maximum Detection parameters on the fly under Settings.

🧬 Detectable Pathogen Species (24 Pathogens)

ASTPredict is optimized to detect major animal pathogens, assisting in fast diagnostic workflows including:

• Staphylococcus aureus (Bovine mastitis, MRSA)
• Escherichia coli (Enteric/calf scours)
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Opportunistic wound pathogen)
• Rhodococcus equi (Equine bronchopneumonia)
• Salmonella enterica (Zoonotic salmonellosis)
• ...and 19 other clinically significant veterinary pathotypes.
