Abstract
The elevated levels of pesticides and their residues occur in the environment
lately due to increased usage of different agrochemicals. These pesticide
residuals enter the human body through water and food. Nowadays different
statistics and artificial intelligence tools are employed in order to solve
different problems in agricultural science. Artificial neural networks
(ANNs) have shown up as a convenient tool in establishing the non-linear
mathematical relationships. The ecotoxicity of studied s-triazine pesticides
was expressed as acute algae toxicity (AAT) and modeled by the ANN approach.
Prior to applying feed forward multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network
with Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) learning algorithm. The ANN
modeling resulted in two networks with the best statistical performance. An
excellent correlation was obtained between experimentally observed data and
acute algae toxicity predicted data with correlation coefficient higher than
0.9342. Additionally, global sensitivity analysis (GSA) was conducted in
order to estimate the influence of all molecular descriptors in the input
layer on the networks performance.
