River Stage Forecasting with Particle Swarm Optimization
نویسنده
چکیده
An accurate water stage prediction allows the pertinent authority to issue a forewarning of the impending flood and to implement early evacuation measures when required. Existing methods including rainfall-runoff modeling or statistical techniques entail exogenous input together with a number of assumptions. The use of artificial neural networks has been shown to be a costeffective technique. But their training, usually with back-propagation algorithm or other gradient algorithms, is featured with certain drawbacks, such as very slow convergence and easily getting stuck in a local minimum. In this paper, a particle swarm optimization model is adopted to train perceptrons. The approach is demonstrated to be feasible and effective by predicting real-time water levels in Shing Mun River of Hong Kong with different lead times on the basis of the upstream gauging stations or stage/time history at the specific station. It is shown from the verification simulations that faster and more accurate results can be acquired.

Neural network river forecasting with multi-objective fully informed particle swarm optimization
In this work, we suggest that the poorer results obtained with particle swarm optimization (PSO) in some previous studies should be attributed to the cross-validation scheme commonly employed to improve generalization of PSO-trained neural network river forecasting (NNRF) models. Crossvalidation entails splitting the training dataset into two, and accepting particle position updates only if fit...
