چکیده

This paper combines discrete wavelet transform (DWT) with an artificial intelligence algorithm in order to develop a new unsupervised method for fast detecting, localizing and classifying flood events in real stage-discharge time series. The proposed method does not require any a priori information such as catchment characteristics or alert flood thresholds; moreover, the simplicity of the method allows for nearly realtime execution.

Evaluation of the Neuro-Fuzzy and Hybrid Wavelet-Neural Models Efficiency in River Flow Forecasting (Case Study: Mohmmad Abad Watershed)

  One of the most important issues in watersheds management is rainfall-runoff hydrological process forecasting. Using new models in this field can contribute to proper management and planning. In addition, river flow forecasting, especially in flood conditions, will allow authorities to reduce the risk of flood damage. Considering the importance of river flow forecasting in water resources ma...

A Time-Based Framework for Evaluating Hydrologic Routing Methodologies Using Wavelet Transform

In this study we explore a method which provides an insight into the effectiveness of various hydrologic models’ routing components based on their ability to accurately represent flood peak times and shapes. The method is based on using Cross-Wavelet Transforms to estimate the phase (time) difference between the time series of the observed and the simulated discharges. In this article we evalua...

Automatic Calibration of HEC-HMS Model Using Multi-Objective Fuzzy Optimal Models

Estimation of parameters of a hydrologic model is undertaken using a procedure called “calibration” in order to obtain predictions as close as possible to observed values. This study aimed to use the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for automatic calibration of the HEC-HMS hydrologic model, which includes a library of different event-based models for simulating the rainfall-runoff pr...

Evaluation of geomorphology method application for flood Hazards risk classification using Fuzzy Logic (Case study: Ojan Chay drainage basin)

Past decades damage by floods in Iran and on the other of the world has shown that we have still much work to do to cope with this problem. Hence, the study of these events and development of more effective adaptation and mitigation policies has become a priority, in other parts of the globe. First step in achieving flood risk assessment is data collection. Availability, suitability and quality...
