abstract = "The objetive of this study is to present the results of
preparation of a neural network trained by a backpropagation
algorithm, in order to process TM-Landsat images, used to identify
areas under secondary succession, among other landuse classes in
Amazonia. Image segmentation techniques by an algorithm of region
growth and labelling of these segments by fuzzy-logic were also
used for the preparation of the start-up network. The performance
of the network to delineate the {"}initial{"} and {"}advanced{"}
regrowth areas, was obtained using both sensitivity and
specificity indices and of the MSE (Mean Square Error). Generally,
it appears that both spectral, textural (entropy and
correlation)and contextual descriptors are effective for the
identification of regrowth areas in Amazonia.",
