  1. 1. Evolutionary Belief Rule based Explainable AI to Predict Air Pollution

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Sharif Noor Zisad; [2023]
    Keywords : Explainable AI; Explainability; Transparency; Belief Rule Based Expert System; Evolutionary Algorithm; Deep Learning;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a novel approach to make Artificial Intelligence (AI) more explainable by using a Belief Rule Based Expert System (BRBES). A BRBES is a type of expert system that can handle both qualitative and quantitative information under uncertainty and incompleteness by using if-then rules with belief degrees. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modelling the growth of Pinus sylvestris L. monocultures in Sweden depending on the absorbed light

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Mateusz Grzeszkiewicz; [2022]
    Keywords : climate change; forest modelling; light use efficiency; photosynthetically active radiation; Scots pine;

    Abstract : Stand growth models are an important aid in contemporary sustainable forest management as a major planning and decision-making tool. However, climate change influencing growth conditions worldwide is a challenge to commonly used empirical models as they do not provide enough flexibility, which can result in inaccurate predictions and thus wrong decisions and sub-optimal results.
