The objective of this study was to apply an improved Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) network model for prediction of debris flow by integrating dynamic rainfall data and environmental factors. The rainfall data were collected from weather information, and the environmental data were extracted from RS, GIS, drilling data, and geophysical data. The input variables used in the SAGA-GMDH model...

The group method of data handling (GMDH) and differential evolution (DE) population-based algorithm are two well-known nonlinear methods of mathematical modeling. In this paper, both methods are explained and a new design methodology which is a hybrid of GMDH and DE is proposed. The proposed method constructs a GMDH network model of a population of promising DE solutions. The new hybrid impleme...

In this paper, we propose novel recurrent architectures for Genetic Programming (GP) and Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) to predict software reliability. The effectiveness of the models is compared with that of well-known machine learning techniques viz. Multiple Linear Regression (MLR), Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS), Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN), Counter Propaga...

Construction of a system for measuring the brain activity (electroencephalogram (EEG)) and recognising thinking patterns comprises significant challenges, in addition to the noise and distortion present in any measuring technique. One of the most major applications of measuring and understanding EGG is the brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. In this paper, ANNs (feedforward back-prop and...

The group method of data handling technique (GMDH) and Box-Jenkins methods are two wellknown time series forecasting of mathematical modeling. In this paper, we introduce a hybrid modeling which combines the GMDH method with the Box-Jenkins method to model time series data. The Box-Jenkins method was used to determine the useful input variables of GMDH method and then the GMDH method which work...

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) are deployed for multi-objective Pareto optimal design of Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH)-type neural networks that have been used for modelling of a complex process (such as explosive cutting process) using some input-output experimental data. In this way, EAs with a new encoding scheme is firstly presented to evolutionary design of the generalized GMDH-type ...
