Machine-learning paradigms for selecting ecologically significant input variables
Harmful algal blooms, which are considered a serious environmental problem nowadays, occur in coastal waters in many parts of the world. They cause acute ecological damage and ensuing economic losses, due to fish kills and shellfish poisoning as well as public health threats posed by toxic blooms. Recently, data-driven models including machine learning (ML) techniques have been employed to mimi...
متن کاملSelecting Input Variables for Fuzzy Models
We present an efficient method for selecting important input variables when building a fuzzy model from data. Past methods for input variable selection require generating different models while searching for the optimal combination of variables; our method requires generating only one model that employs all possible input variables. To determine the important variables, premises in the fuzzy ru...
متن کاملRenyi's-entropy-based Approach for Selecting the Significant Input Variables for the Ecological data
Recently, data-driven approaches including machine-learning (ML) techniques have played a key role in the research on ecological data and models. One of the most important steps in the application of a ML technique is the selection of significant model input variables. Among ML methods, artificial neural networks and genetic algorithm are widely used for the sake of the above aim; however entro...
متن کامل_?,,-s/ 7 Paradigms for Machine Learning
In this paper we describe five paradigms for machine learning connectionist (neural network) methods, genetic algorithms and classifier systems, empirical methods for inducing rules and decision trees, analytic learning methods, and case-based approaches. We consider some dimensions along which these paradigms vary in their approach to learning, and then review the basic methods used within eac...
متن کاملSelecting Input Variables Using Mutual Informationand Nonparametric Density
In learning problems where a connectionist network is trained with a nite sized training set, better generalization performance is often obtained when unneeded weights in the network are eliminated. One source of unneeded weights comes from the inclusion of input variables that provide little information about the output variables. We propose a method for identifying and eliminating these input...
