Rock slopes and gravel beaches under wave attack

TL;DR: In this article, the stability of cliff slopes and gravel beaches under wave attack has been investigated with the aid of small and large scale physical models, and the range from "no damage" to statically stable structures up to the profile development of very small (4 mm) shingle under prototype circumstan-

Model trees as an alternative to neural networks in rainfall-runoff modelling

TL;DR: In this paper, the applicability of two data-driven modeling techniques, namely, artificial neural networks (ANNs) and model trees (MTs), in rainfall runoff transformation was investigated by predicting runoff one, three and six hours ahead for a European catchment.

M5 Model Trees and Neural Networks: Application to Flood Forecasting in the Upper Reach of the Huai River in China

TL;DR: It is shown that model trees, being analogous to piecewise linear functions, have certain advantages compared to ANNs—they are more transparent and hence acceptable by decision makers, are very fast in training and always converge.
