See, for example https://arxiv.org/pdf/1603.06765.pdf which gets 88.9% accuracy on the Stanford Dogs dataset, and 84.3 on the Caltech Birds dataset. These are way better than anything a non-expert human can do. For example, it can distinguish between the Rhinoceros Auklet and the Parakeet Auklet. I&amp;#x27;m not sure what expert performance is, but around 94% is where humans top out on most tasks.
