  • Spatial Uncertainty in Ecology

    Implications for Remote Sensing and GIS Applications

    Edited by Ted J. Case, Mark A. Friedl, Michael F. Goodchild, Carolyn T. Hunsaker ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The huge growth in the use of geographic information systems, remote sensing platforms and spatial databases have made accurate spatial data more available for ecological and environmental models. Unfortunately, there has been too little analysis of the appropriate use of this data and the role of uncertainty in resulting ecological models. This is the first book to take an ecological perspective ... Read more

  • xxAI - Beyond Explainable AI

    International Workshop, Held in Conjunction with ICML 2020, July 18, 2020, Vienna, Austria, Revised and Extended Papers

    Edited by Andreas Holzinger, Randy Goebel, Ruth Fong, Taesup Moon, Klaus-Robert Müller, Wojciech Samek ...
    Series series Computer Science (R0)
    This is an open access book.Statistical machine learning (ML) has triggered a renaissance of artificial intelligence (AI). While the most successful ML models, including Deep Neural Networks (DNN), have developed better predictivity, they have become increasingly complex, at the expense of human interpretability (correlation vs. causality). The field of explainable AI (xAI) has emerged with the ... Read more

  • Spatial Analysis

    A Guide for Ecologists

    by Marie-Josée Fortin, Mark R. T. Dale ...
    The spatial and temporal dimensions of ecological phenomena have always been inherent in the conceptual framework of ecology, but only recently have they been incorporated explicitly into ecological theory, sampling design, experimental design and models. Statistical techniques for spatial analysis of ecological data are burgeoning and many ecologists are unfamiliar with what is available and how ... Read more

  • Maximum Entropy and Ecology

    A Theory of Abundance, Distribution, and Energetics

    by John Harte ...
    Series series Oxford Series in Ecology and Evolution
    This pioneering graduate textbook provides readers with the concepts and practical tools required to understand the maximum entropy principle, and apply it to an understanding of ecological patterns. Rather than building and combining mechanistic models of ecosystems, the approach is grounded in information theory and the logic of inference. Paralleling the derivation of thermodynamics from the ... Read more
