TLDR
An approach to optimize window length for SSA and number of decomposition stages for wavelet transform applied in a rainfall-runoff model is addressed and a hybrid neural network is developed to take the advantage of wavelet and SSA-based ANN models.
Abstract
The proper function of artificial neural networks (ANNs) depends on several factors including the suitability of input variables and the amount of information they can add to the model in order to produce the required target output(s). Wavelet transforms and to lesser extent singular spectrum analysis (SSA) are well known and widely applied pre-processing methods to enhance ANN models. An important step in the SSA algorithm and wavelet transform method is choosing the window length (L) and determining the suitable number of decomposition stages, respectively. In most past research, these parameters have been used as granted. Moreover, a research to show the impact of using a combination of wavelet and SSA is absent. This study addresses an approach to optimize window length for SSA and number of decomposition stages for wavelet transform applied in a rainfall-runoff model. Moreover, a hybrid neural network is developed to take the advantage of wavelet and SSA-based ANN models. The results show a s...

Ecological influence of sediment bypass tunnels on macroinvertebrates in dam-fragmented rivers by DNA metabarcoding

TL;DR: It is found that macroinvertebrate community dissimilarity decreases with increasing operation time and frequency of SBTs, which supports and reinforces the use of quantitative estimates for diversity analysis with metabarcoding data.

Comparison of different efficiency criteria for hydrological model assessment

TL;DR: In this paper, the utility of several efficiency criteria is investigated in three examples using a simple observed streamflow hydrograph, and the selection and use of specific efficiency criteria and interpretation of the results can be a challenge for even the most experienced hydrologist since each criterion may place different emphasis on different types of simulated and observed behaviours.
