Ronny Hansch: Handbook of Random Forests: Theory and Applications for Remote Sensing, Gebunden

Klappentext

This compendium provides a hands-on description of Random Forests. It starts with a consistent introduction of general methods to create, train, and fuse ensembles of decision trees. Instead of limiting the discussion to the general-purpose layout of traditional Random Forests, this book outlines specifications during tree creation and training that are especially well suited to analyze structured data such as images. The theoretical foundations are explained as well as practical and implementation issues. The many possible variations of the Random Forest model are discussed together with their implications on the prediction results to provide insights into the influence of these parameters and their possible side-effects. Last but not least, this unique title provides specific examples of the usage of Random Forests for analysing remote sensing imagery.
