Popis: | This study seeks to support, through the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), the decision to perform closings after days without sampling in the Vigo estuary. The opening and closing of the mussel production areas are based on the toxicity analysis of this bivalve&rsquo s meat. Sometimes it is not possible to obtain the necessary data for effective closing. If there is evidence of an increase in toxicity levels, &ldquo Precautionary Closings&rdquo on mussel extraction is done. A small error in the forecast of the state of the areas could mean serious losses for the mussel industry and a huge risk for public health. Unlike in previous studies, this study aims to manage the state of the mussel production areas, whilst the others focused on predicting the harmful algae blooms. Having achieved test sensitivity values of 67.40% and test accuracy of 83.00%, these results may lead to new research that involves obtaining more accurate models that can be integrated into a support system. |
