1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
generating images of farmed fish within an enclosure using an underwater camera;
applying a machine learning-trained model to features of the images to generate respective estimates for the farmed fish in the images, wherein each of the estimates represent a range of weights;
generating a distribution that indicates, for each of multiple values or ranges, a count of the farmed fish whose respective generated estimate is associated with the value or range; and
adjusting an automated process associated with the enclosure based at least on the distribution.
