Application of artificial neural networks in modeling deforestation associated with new road infrastructure projects

Abstract: La deforestación tropical es un proceso continuo causado principalmente por la construcción de nuevas vías, las cuales sin una planificación ambiental adecuada contribuyen a la pérdida de biodiversidad. Dado que las redes neuronales artificiales (RNAs) tienen la capacidad de capturar relaciones no lineales, se utilizaron para predecir la deforestación asociada a nuevas vías, como la Variante Porce y la vía El Bagre-San Jacinto del Cauca, en el departamento de Antioquia. El entrenamiento de las RNAs se realizó … Show more

“…A sort of supervised network is the BP network model. When data is entered into the network, it is first transferred from the input layer to the hidden layer node, then sent to the next hidden layer following the characteristic function, and ultimately passed to the output layer [13]. e neural unit's function is usually an s-type function:…”

“…The distance simulation to the forests shows that the protected forest for which there is a strong probability of the deforestation is associated to the conception of an asphalted road. These reports have has been obtained in Latina America Forest by Freitas et al [46] and by Gómez-Ossa & Botero-Fernández [45]. If the roads building constitutes by the facilitation access to the forests (a conservative action of the protected forests), it disturbs in this sense that the ecological studies suggest that the tropical forest overflows a biodiversity.…”

“…This method was commonly used to determine and include/understand the anthropogenic action or deforestation causes. Moreover, an Euclidian distance analysis is the best indicator suited to represent deforestation [45,46]. One variable, like an asphalted national road named "La Côtière", has been used to explain the closed forests (FD) occurrence.…”
