Artificial Neural Network and Near Infrared Light in Water pH and Total Ammonia Nitrogen Prediction

Water quality plays an important role in aquaculture. The operation of a freshwater aquaculture fish farming is highly dependent on the ability to understand, monitor, and control the physical and chemical constituents of the water. pH and total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) levels are two critical water q...
