Artificial neural networks are useful for environmental modeling, but noisy data requires careful uncertainty estimation. This review explores methods for handling noisy environmental data and improving climate change impact assessments.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Computer Science
  • Statistics

Background:

  • Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are effective for non-linear regression in environmental modeling.
  • Environmental datasets often exhibit noise, including heteroscedasticity and non-Gaussian distributions.
  • Accurate predictive uncertainty estimation is crucial for reliable environmental modeling.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing methodologies for estimating predictive uncertainty in noisy environmental datasets.
  • To demonstrate the application of predictive distribution models in climate change impact assessment.
  • To enhance decision-making processes in environmental management.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current techniques for predictive uncertainty estimation in ANNs.
