  3. 2. Generating an Interpretable Ranking Model: Exploring the Power of Local Model-Agnostic Interpretability for Ranking Analysis

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Laura Galera Alfaro; [2023]
    Keywords : Explainable Artificial Intelligence; Learning To Rank; Local ModelAgnostic Interpretability; Ranking Generalized Additive Models;

    Abstract : Machine learning has revolutionized recommendation systems by employing ranking models for personalized item suggestions. However, the complexity of learning-to-rank (LTR) models poses challenges in understanding the underlying reasons contributing to the ranking outcomes. READ MORE

  4. 3. Essential young-of-the-year fish macrophyte habitats along the swedish east coast : Evaluation of representativity of marine protected areas and pressures on habitats in the Gulf of Bothnia

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Author : Zanna Zielfeldt; [2021]
    Keywords : Baltic Sea; fish habitats; vegetation cover; fish species richness; recreational activities; ; boating; marine protected areas;

    Abstract : Along the coastal zone of the Baltic Sea high productivity habitats form important areas for many organisms, including young-of-the-year (YOY) fish. Habitats consisting of aquatic vegetation provide YOY fish with important services, such as refuge from large predators and food sources. READ MORE

  6. 5. Humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) location in Southeast Alaska : modeling the influence of mesoscale krill (Euphausiacea) patch depth and size

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Christine Walder; [2018]
    Keywords : physical geography and ecosystem analysis; humpback whales; krill; patchiness; vertical distribution; Generalized Additive Models GAMs ; spatial modeling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Humpback whales ([i]Megaptera novaeangliae[/i]) require dense prey aggregations due to the high energetic cost of their feeding methods. Modeling studies have shown that when whales are on their feeding grounds, they are closely associated with high prey concentrations. READ MORE
