A Novel Hybrid Approach to Estimating Missing Values in Databases Using K-nearest Neighbors and Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Missing values in datasets and databases can be estimated via statistics, machine learning and artificial intelligence methods. This paper uses a novel hybrid neural network and weighted nearest neighbors to estimate missing values and provides good results with high performance. In this work, four different characteristic datasets were used and missing values were estimated. Error ratio, correlation coefficient, prediction accuracy were calculated between actual and estimated values and the results were compared with basic neural network-genetic algorithm estimation method.

Dams control most of the sediment entering the reservoir by creating static environments. However, sediment leaving the dam depends on various factors such as dam management method, inlet sediment, water height in the reservoir, the shape of the reservoir, and discharge flow. In this research, the amount of suspended sediment of Doroodzan Dam based on a statistical period of 25 years has been i...
