Estimating Forest Volume and Biomass and Their Changes Using Random Forests and Remotely Sensed Data
Despite the popularity of random forests (RF) as a prediction algorithm, methods for constructing confidence intervals for population means using this technique are still only sparsely reported. For two regional study areas (Spain and Norway) RF was used to predict forest volume or aboveground bioma...
