论文摘要
Befana是一种免费的开源软件工具，用于生态网络分析和可视化。它适合生态学家的需求，并允许他们研究生态网络的拓扑和动力学以及应用选定的机器学习算法。 Befana在Python中实现，并作为交互式计算笔记本的有序集合结构。它依赖于广泛使用的开源库，旨在实现简单性，互动性和可扩展性。 Befana提供了用于数据加载和预处理，网络分析和交互式可视化，通过实验数据进行建模以及通过机器学习进行预测建模的方法和实现。我们通过一个有害土壤的农业草原的混凝土示例展示了Befana，并展示了其所有主要组成部分和功能。
BEFANA is a free and open-source software tool for ecological network analysis and visualisation. It is adapted to ecologists' needs and allows them to study the topology and dynamics of ecological networks as well as apply selected machine learning algorithms. BEFANA is implemented in Python, and structured as an ordered collection of interactive computational notebooks. It relies on widely used open-source libraries, and aims to achieve simplicity, interactivity, and extensibility. BEFANA provides methods and implementations for data loading and preprocessing, network analysis and interactive visualisation, modelling with experimental data, and predictive modelling with machine learning. We showcase BEFANA through a concrete example of a detrital soil food web of agricultural grasslands, and demonstrate all of its main components and functionalities.
