Study assesses and monitors deforestation and fragmentation in forest ecosystems of Assam. Multi-Layer Perceptron neural network modeling was used for predicting the spatial distribution of deforestation. Evaluated the rate of changes in forests. The results of fragmentation analysis have indicated the reduction of core forests. Identified the deforestation hotspots.
