Application of artificial neural networks in modeling deforestation associated with new road infrastructure projects

Tropical deforestation is an ongoing process mainly caused by the construction of new roads, which, without proper environmental planning, contribute to biodiversity loss. Given that the artificial neural networks (ANNs) have the ability to capture nonlinear relationships, they were used to predict...
