Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision for Ecological Informatics

"With the rapid development of industries and changes in climatic conditions, it becomes essential to sustenance our ecosystem. We all know if we nourish the nature, then it will imitate in a better way. Ecological informatics or more commonly known as Ecoinformatics is the study of environmental sciences and ecological information. It is an emerging interdisciplinary framework for the management, analysis, and synthesis of the ecological data with the help of advanced computational intelligence algorithms. Where management in this context is refer data acquisition, preprocessing, and sharing the data. Analysis and synthesis are the process of extracting useful information and forecasting the knowledge with the help of intelligent algorithms. Our aim in this book is to encapsulate the various concepts and theories of artificial intelligence and computer vision algorithms used for the evaluation of various ecological informatics applications. The book will be focused on including various soft computing, machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, bio-inspired algorithms, data analysis tools, data visualization tools, and computer vision algorithms used in ecological informatics. This book will cover the various remote sensing applications, water bodies evaluation, agriculture mapping, aquatic mapping, forest management, terrestrial ecosystem among all. The proposed book can be useful to students, researchers, scientist, and filed experts in directing their work towards this domain and deliver/design models/prototypes useful for the beneficial of society and environment"-- Provided by publisher.
