This study presents an interesting approach to identifying the Genus of the Stingless bee aided by machine learning technology. The conventional way of identifying the Genus of the Stingless bee or “Lebah Kelulut” relied on the face-to-face meetings with local bee experts. This particular process is considered to be outdated and time consuming. Thus, the proposed solution incorporated the machine learning tool called the “TensorFlow Object Detection API”. This tool is provided by Google TensorFlow and uses the Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN), which incorporates the Region Proposal Network to enhance the current network. The data set used for training and testing consisted of 400 images, which belong to two types of bee species namely, the Heterotrigona Erythrogasta and Heterotrigona Itama. The evaluation of the model produced an accuracy rate of 73.75% for an average computing time per image of 0.65 seconds.
