Description:		There are many kinds of insects - more than you would think. Currently scientists have to sort the insects into their biological families by themselves. But...for some of the insects this process could be automated. Most of the flies have unique wings. If we develop a software that would recognize the links in the wings of the flies and store it in some vector representations, it could be then used by scientists to rapidly categorize the samples.
