Knowledge Extraction from the Neural ‘Black Box’ in Ecological Monitoring
Phytoplankton biomass within the Saginaw Bay ecosystem (Lake Huron, Michigan, USA) was characterized as a function of select physical/chemical indicators. The complexity and variability of ecological systems typically make it difficult to model the influences of anthropogenic stressors and/or natural disturbances. Here, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were developed to model chlorophyll a con...
متن کاملForecasting the ecological impacts of the Hemimysis anomala invasion in North America: Lessons from other freshwater mysid introductions
Index words: Hemimysis Invasive species Great Lakes Ecological impact Food webs Risk assessment The bloody redmysid shrimp Hemimysis anomala is the most recent Ponto-Caspian invader of the Great Lakes. At present, there is a paucity of data that can be used to forecast its ecological impacts in North America; however, published studies of other invasive freshwater mysids (i.e. Mysis diluviana i...
متن کاملRevealing the Organization of Complex Adaptive Systems through Multivariate Time Series Modeling
Revealing the adaptive responses of ecological, social, and economic systems to a transforming biosphere is crucial for understanding system resilience and preventing collapse. However, testing the theory that underpins complex adaptive system organization (e.g., panarchy theory) is challenging. We used multivariate time series modeling to identify scale-specific system organization and, by ext...
متن کاملSpatio-temporal and Ecological Analysis of Brucellosis in North of Iran
Epidemic diseases are a public health concern that has many economic costs and health problems. The geographical distribution of these diseases is a spatial and temporal process. By understanding the process and identifying the factors that affect it, we can take an effective step in preventing and treating these diseases. Brucellosis is one of the most important zoonotic diseases in Iran. To b...
متن کاملReachability checking in complex and concurrent software systems using intelligent search methods
Software system verification is an efficient technique for ensuring the correctness of a software product, especially in safety-critical systems in which a small bug may have disastrous consequences. The goal of software verification is to ensure that the product fulfills the requirements. Studies show that the cost of finding and fixing errors in design time is less than finding and fixing the...
