application of several data-driven techniques for rainfall-runoff modeling

Application of Machine Learning Approaches in Rainfall-Runoff Modeling (Case Study: Zayandeh_Rood Basin in Iran)

Run off resulted from rainfall is the main way of receiving water in most parts of the World. Therefore, prediction of runoff volume resulted from rainfall is getting more and more important in control, harvesting and management of surface water. In this research a number of machine learning and data mining methods including support vector machines, regression trees (CART algorithm), model tree...

Application of Artificial Neural Networks for Rainfall-runoff Modelling

Rainfall-Runoff models are mostly empirical in nature demanding the knowledge of a large number of catchment parameters. On the contrary Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) can be deployed in cases where the available data is limited. The present work involves the development of an ANN model using Backward Propagation algorithm. The hydrologic variables used were Rainfall, Soil Moisture, Evaporati...

optimizing neural network for monthly rainfall-runoff modeling with denoised-jittered data

successful modeling of hydro-environmental processes widely relies on quantity and quality of accessible data and noisy data might effect on the functioning of the modeling. on the other hand in training phase of any artificial intelligence (ai) based model, each training data set is usually a limited sample of possible patterns of the process and hence, might not show the behavior of whole pop...

Evolutionary Regression Modeling with Active Learning: An Application to Rainfall Runoff Modeling

Many complex, real world phenomena are difficult to study directly using controlled experiments. Instead, the use of computer simulations has become commonplace as a feasible alternative. However, due to the computational cost of these high fidelity simulations, the use of neural networks, kernel methods, and other surrogate modeling techniques has become indispensable. Surrogate models are com...

Rainfall-runoff process modeling using time series transfer function

Extended Abstract 1- Introduction Nowadays, forecasting and modeling the rainfall-runoff process is essential for planning and managing water resources. Rainfall-Runoff hydrologic models provide simplified characterizations of the real-world system. A wide range of rainfall-runoff models is currently used by researchers and experts. These models are mainly developed and applied for simulation...
