When is a forest a forest? Forest concepts and definitions in the era of forest and landscape restoration [PDF]
Ambio, 2016 We present a historical overview of forest concepts and definitions, linking these changes with distinct perspectives and management objectives. Policies dealing with a broad range of forest issues are often based on definitions created for the purpose of assessing global forest stocks, which do not distinguish between natural and planted forests or ...

The fertilized forests Decision Forest Library [PDF]
Proceedings of the 23rd ACM international conference on Multimedia, 2015 Since the introduction of Random Forests in the 80's they have been a frequently used statistical tool for a variety of machine learning tasks. Many different training algorithms and model adaptions demonstrate the versatility of the forests. This variety resulted in a fragmentation of research and code, since each adaption requires its own algorithms ...

National Science Review, 2018 AbstractCurrent deep-learning models are mostly built upon neural networks, i.e. multiple layers of parameterized differentiable non-linear modules that can be trained by backpropagation. In this paper, we explore the possibility of building deep models based on non-differentiable modules such as decision trees.

Homogenization methods and mechanics of generalized continua - part 2 [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2002 The need for generalized continua arises in several areas of the mechanics of heterogeneous materials, especially in homogenization theory. A generalized homogeneous substitution medium is necessary at the global level when the structure made of a ...
