  • The Machine Learning “Advent Calendar” Day 8: Isolation Forest in Excel

    The Machine Learning “Advent Calendar” Day 8: Isolation Forest in Excel Isolation Forest may look technical, but its idea is simple: isolate points using random splits. If a point is isolated quickly, it is an anomaly; if it takes many splits, it is normal. Using the tiny dataset 1, 2, 3, 9, we can see…

  • Stochastic forest transition model dynamics and parameter estimation via deep learning

    Stochastic forest transition model dynamics and parameter estimation via deep learning arXiv:2507.21486v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Forest transitions, characterized by dynamic shifts between forest, agricultural, and abandoned lands, are complex phenomena. This study developed a stochastic differential equation model to capture the intricate dynamics of these transitions. We established the existence of global positive solutions…
