Evaluation Of Evapotranspiration Estimates Using An Existing Hybrid Machine Learning Model In A Natural And A Managed Dryland Site, Katya Esquivel Herrera
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
Evapotranspiration (ET) is a critical component of the hydrologic cycle, encompassing both evaporative water loss from surfaces and transpiration through plant stomata. The environmental factors influencing ET include water and energy availability, atmospheric capacity for water uptake, and various meteorological variables. ET serves as a unique climate variable linking water, energy, and carbon cycles. In agroecosystems, accurate ET quantification is vital for optimizing water use efficiency, irrigation management, and crop yield. Traditional methods for ET estimation involve direct measurements and indirect models, with both presenting limitations.
Recent years have witnessed the integration of remote sensing and machine learning (ML) algorithms …
Gene Selection And Classification In High-Throughput Biological Data With Integrated Machine Learning Algorithms And Bioinformatics Approaches, Abhijeet R Patil
Gene Selection And Classification In High-Throughput Biological Data With Integrated Machine Learning Algorithms And Bioinformatics Approaches, Abhijeet R Patil
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
With the rise of high throughput technologies in biomedical research, large volumes of expression profiling, methylation profiling, and RNA-sequencing data are being generated. These high-dimensional data have large number of features with small number of samples, a characteristic called the "curse of dimensionality." The selection of optimal features, which largely affects the performance of classification algorithms in machine learning models, has led to challenging problems in bioinformatics analyses of such high-dimensional datasets. In this work, I focus on the design of two-stage frameworks of feature selection and classification and their applications in multiple sets of colorectal cancer data. The first …
Assessing Data Quality In A Sensor Network For Environmental Monitoring, Gesuri Ramirez
Assessing Data Quality In A Sensor Network For Environmental Monitoring, Gesuri Ramirez
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
Assessing the quality of sensor data in environmental monitoring applications is important, as erroneous readings produced by malfunctioning sensors, calibration drift, and problematic climatic conditions, such as icing or dust, are common.Traditional data quality checking and correction is a painstaking manual process, so the development of automatic systems for this task is highly desirable.
This study investigates machine learning methods to identify and clean incorrect data from a real-world environmental sensor network, the Jornada Experimental Range, located in Southern New Mexico. We evaluated several learning algorithms and data replacement schemes, and developed a method to identify the problematic sensor. The …
