چکیده

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have proved to be good modelling tools in hydrology for rainfall-runoff modelling and hydraulic flow modelling. Representative datasets are necessary for the training phase in which the ANN learns the model’s input-output relations. Good and representative training data is not always available. In this publication Genetic Algorithms (GA) are used to optimise training datasets. The approach is tested with an existing hydraulic model in The Netherlands. An initial trainnig dataset is used for training the ANN. After optimisation with a GA of the training dataset the ANN produced more accurate model results.

Transfer Learning Across Heterogeneous Tasks Using Behavioural Genetics

We explore the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) as computational models capable of sharing, retaining and reusing knowledge when they are combined via Behavioural Genetic principles. In behavioural genetics, the performance and the variability in performance (in case of population studies) stems from structure (intrinsic factors or genes) and environment (training dataset). We simulate ...
