- Kurztext
- Mainly focuses on modelling applications in aquatic community ecology that have been recently developed on the basis of Artificial Intelligence techniques, and using Artificial Neural NetworksMost of the presented applications aim at predicting the community composition for those groups of organisms mentioned in the EU directive 60/2000, and that will be used as benchmarks for specific issues in community studies
