Machine learning for spatial prediction - notes form OpenGeoHub 2019
Abstract
Presentation and Tutorial 9
Date
Sep 24, 2019
5:00 PM
— 7:00 PM
Event
Regular R-Meetup
Location
SEM 8, Eurac Research, Bolzano
In this meetup we will see how to perform spatial prediction using machine learning algotrithms in R. We will mainly use Random Forest
We will cover the following topics:
- Spatial modelling requirements
- Overview of Machine Learning and their strategies (focus on Random Forest)
- Model interpretation
- Prediction of uncertainty
- Questions and discussion
