AGRICULTURAL LAND CHANGE DETECTING AND FORECASTING USING COMBINATION OF FEEDFORWARD MULTILAYER NEURAL NETWORK, CELLULAR AUTOMATA AND MARKOV CHAIN MODELS

• Feature elimination algorithm that combines recursive features with voting for feature selection in forest fire susceptibility assessments. • Using the feature selection method, the primary factors can be reduced, while the evaluation criteria can be improved. • In the assessment of forest fire susceptibility, the random forest method appears to be more accurate than the support vector machine.
