This paper presents the support vector machine approach to predict the longitudinal dispersion coefficients in natural rivers. Collected published data from the literature for the dispersion coefficient for wide range of flow conditions are used for the development and testing of the proposed method. The proposed SVM approach produce satisfactory results with coefficient of determination=0.9025...

The duality between Hl and BMO, the space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (see [JN]), was first proved by C. Fefferman (see [F], [FS]) and then other proofs of it were obtained . Using the atomic decomposition approach ([C], [L]) the author studied the problem of characterizing the dual space of Hl of vector-valued functions . In [B2] the author showed, for the case SZ = {Iz1 = 1}, tha...
