Item Discrete wavelet-Ann approach in time series flow forecasting-a case study of Brahmaputra river(2012) Deka, P.C.; Haque, L.; Banhatti, A.G.This paper deals with the prediction of hydrologic behavior of the runoff for the one of the largest discharge carrier International River, Brahmaputra, located in Assam (India) at the Pandu station, by using daily time unit. The flow regime dominated by high data non-stationary and seasonal irregularity due to Himalayan climate fallout. The influence of data preprocessing through wavelet transforms has been investigated. For this, the main time series of flow data were decomposed to multi resolution time series using discrete wavelet transformations. Then these decomposed data were used as input to Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for multiple lead time flow forecasting. Various types of wavelets were used to evaluate the optimal performance of models developed. The forecasting accuracy of the models has been tested for multiple lead time upto 4 days using different decomposition levels. The performance of the proposed hybrid model has been evaluated based on the performance indices such as root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of efficiency (CE) and mean relative error (MRE).The results shows the better forecasting accuracy by the proposed combined hybrid model over the single ANN model in hydrological time series forecasting. © 2012 CAFET-INNOVA TECHNICAL SOCIETY.Item Dew Point temperature estimation: Application of artificial intelligence model integrated with nature-inspired optimization algorithms(MDPI AG indexing@mdpi.com Postfach Basel CH-4005, 2019) Naganna, S.R.; Deka, P.C.; Ghorbani, M.A.; Biazar, S.M.; Al-Ansari, N.; Yaseen, Z.M.Dew point temperature (DPT) is known to fluctuate in space and time regardless of the climatic zone considered. The accurate estimation of the DPT is highly significant for various applications of hydro and agro-climatological researches. The current research investigated the hybridization of a multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network with nature-inspired optimization algorithms (i.e., gravitational search (GSA) and firefly (FFA)) to model the DPT of two climatically contrasted (humid and semi-arid) regions in India. Daily time scale measured weather information, such as wet bulb temperature (WBT), vapor pressure (VP), relative humidity (RH), and dew point temperature, was used to build the proposed predictive models. The efficiencies of the proposed hybrid MLP networks (MLP-FFA and MLP-GSA) were authenticated against standard MLP tuned by a Levenberg-Marquardt back-propagation algorithm, extreme learning machine (ELM), and support vector machine (SVM) models. Statistical evaluation metrics such as Nash Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE) were used to validate the model efficiency. The proposed hybrid MLP models exhibited excellent estimation accuracy. The hybridization of MLP with nature-inspired optimization algorithms boosted the estimation accuracy that is clearly owing to the tuning robustness. In general, the applied methodology showed very convincing results for both inspected climate zones. © 2019 by the authors.
