Modelling: opinion of new methods

Dear Lara,

Several correlative species distribution models exist (and are used 
currently), including machine learning approaches as well, such as 
artificial neural network (ANN), boosted regression trees (RGB / GBM), 
genetic algorithm (GA), and random forests (RF).
You may find the papers comparing or grouping them interesting:

Hello everyone!

I am new in modelling species (plants). However, I used some approaches
like ENFA (Biomapper), Maxent, generalized linear and additive models (in
R) and Biomod2.

I would like to improve my knowledge in this area.Currently, what methods
have been used?
Any suggestions?

Regards,

Lara
