Machine learning maps deforestation risk in Bangladesh's Gazipur district

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A study published in Environmental Challenges utilized machine learning algorithms to map deforestation probability in Bangladesh's Gazipur district. The research integrated twelve factors, including biophysical, landscape, and anthropogenic data, to identify high-risk zones. Five machine learning models—RF, XGBoost, ANN, NB, and MLP—were trained and assessed to facilitate evidence-based forest governance and conservation efforts. AI

IMPACT This research demonstrates the application of machine learning for environmental monitoring and conservation planning.
