Modelling the species-area relationship using extreme value theory by Luís Borda-de-Água, M. Manuela Neves, Luise Quoss, Stephen P. Hubbell, Filipe S. Dias, Henrique M. Pereira

“…Despite its significance, the theoretical foundations of this pattern remain incompletely understood. Here, we develop a theory for the species-area relationship using extreme value theory, and show that the species-area relationship is a mixture of the distributions of minimum distances to a starting sampling focal point for each individual species. …”

Impact of agricultural industry transformation based on deep learning model evaluation and metaheuristic algorithms under dual carbon strategy by Xuan Zhao, Weiyun Tang, Qiuyan Liu, Hongtao Cao, Fei Chen

“…Compared with traditional methods—such as deep neural networks, support vector machines, and linear regression—the proposed model effectively integrates static and dynamic agricultural data. Static features, including farmland distribution and soil types, are extracted using Convolutional Neural Networks, while temporal trends in variables such as weather patterns and policy changes are captured by the Long Short-Term Memory network. …”
