Abstract In this study, wavelet support vector machine (WSWM) model is proposed for daily suspended sediment (SS) prediction. The WSVM model is achieved by combination of two methods; discrete wavelet analysis and support vector machine (SVM). The developed model was compared with single SVM. Daily discharge (Q) and SS data from Yadkin River at Yadkin College, NC station in the USA were used. I...

background and objectives: survival models are statistical technique to estimate or predict the overall time up to specific events. prediction is important in medical science and the accuracy of prediction is determined by a measurement, generally based on loss functions, called prediction error. the aim of this study is using parametric models to determine the factors influencing predicted sur...

Accurate prediction of the future electricity consumption is crucial for production electricity management. Since the storage of electrical energy is very difficult, reliable and accurate prediction of power consumption is important. Different approaches for this purpose were used. In this paper, Grey model (1,1) based on grey system theory has been used for forecasting results. Annual electric...

prediction the river flow discharge values are important in the surface water resources management. find an appropriate model to accurately predictionof this parameter is one of the most important ways to simulation and prediction. in this study three anfis, svm and gp models were evaluated and compared to modeling the monthly flow discharge of nazloochi river in tapik hydrometric station that ...

in this paper, a neural network model reference adaptive system speed observer is designed, which can be used in speed control of linear induction motors (lims). dynamical equations of lim have been considered accurate. in other words, the end effect and the electrical losses of the motor have been included in the motor equivalent circuit. then equations of the reference model and adaptive mode...
