| support vector machines to model presence/absence of alburnus alburnus alborella (teleostea, cyprinidae) in north-western italy: comparison with other machine learning techniques. | alburnus alburnus alborella is a fish species native to northern italy. it has suffered a very sharp decrease in population over the last 20 years due to human impact. therefore, it was selected for reintroduction projects. in this research project, support vector machines (svm) were tested as possible tools for building reliable models of presence/absence of the species. a system of 198 sites located along the rivers of piedmont in north-western italy was investigated. at each site, 19 physical ... | 2015 | 23199636 |
